[SOLVED] Making space between Header image and menu

I have installed a Content Slider to provide images in the header of a site I am working on and want to have a space between this and the Menu Bar. I have tried adding padding or margins but nothing seems to solve the problem the menu bar stays where if is.

The site which is only a test layout is http://repdomproperties.com/visitjd/

I'm sure there is an easy way to do this and I only want about 10px just to create a gap between the banner images and the menu bar.

Using Wp 3.3.2 and atahualpa 3.7.6

Thanks in advance
