With National Apprenticeship Week taking place from Monday March 14 - 18, Bournemouth-based recruitment agency, Real Recruitment Solutions is seeking its first apprentice to join its expanding team, to help grow the business and develop opportunities for promotion within the company. One of Dorset’s leading recruitment companies, Real Recruitment Solutions (formerly Quantum Recruitment) has partnered with Affinity Training to offer the apprenticeship position, in which the candidate will work towards an NVQ in business admin.

Quay Living’s apprentice negotiator Kane Chapman, 20, has succeeded in passing his Unit 1 Technical Award with the NFOPP with a 90% pass rate.

Real Recruitment Solutions offers a permanent recruitment service within the commercial, construction, healthcare and hospitality sectors throughout the UK.

Kane, who joined Poole agent Quay Living last June, works four days a week for Quay and attends Bournemouth and Poole College one day a week to develop his technical expertise. Says Kane, “I’m really pleased to have passed. The technical award is evidence that I’m on the right track, which is a good feeling. It’s also great to apply the theory I am learning at college to the practical experience I get working with Quay”.

To find out more about employment opportunities visit www. realrecruitmentsolutions.co.uk or call 01202 530770.

Jacqueline Entwistle, managing director at Real Recruitment Solutions, said: “We wanted the opportunity to develop young people and encourage growth within the company, so taking on an apprentice was the obvious solution.”

NEW INSULATION COMPANY LAUNCHED IN POOLE A new business offering advanced technology in insulation for residential and commercial properties has been launched in Poole. Insutec Insulation Systems, founded by energy sector specialist Colin Heath, is based on the Albany Business Park and has already been selected as an approved agent for Lapolla Industries in the UK. As well as providing owners of residential homes with cost-effective, environmentally friendly and easy to install foam insulation, Insutec will be looking to expand their services to the commercial, agricultural, equestrian and industrial sectors across Southern England.

saving industry and a background in Construction Management.

Quay Living’s Partner, Duncan Challis, confirms, “Kane has very quickly made himself an invaluable member of the team and he is always keen to learn. We are really pleased that he has passed his Technical Award. Being Regulated by RICS, the NAEA and ARLA, we actively encourage our staff to further their professional qualifications, and to stay ahead of legislative and technical developments”.

It can also be used in older and more traditional buildings, and because its cellular structure is open and of low density, it provides two very important benefits over traditional insulation materials. With a team of expert installers, Insutec offers a complete installation and after-care service, backed by a 25 year manufacturer’s guarantee. For more information, please visit www. insutec.co.uk or call 0800 0599 466.

“The Lapolla product we are offering our customers is especially well suited to buildings with a contemporary design because it is able to fill every inch of cavity space that it is injected into whatever the shape, resulting in 100% efficiency and a perfect air seal. This improves its thermal efficiency by eliminating lost energy due to gaps or leaks” reveals Colin, who has over ten years’ experience in the energy

‘THE FIGHT’ - BOCONCEPT ANNOUNCES ITS THIRD SHORT FILM STARRING MADS MIKKELSEN ‘Come on up. The door’s open…’ Awardwinning Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen stars in his third short film produced by Danish furniture retailer BoConcept. Following up the 2 previous films – ‘THE CALL’ and ‘THE GUEST’ – in ‘THE FIGHT’ Mads is paid a visit by two BoConcept Interior Decorators. But what they find when they arrive on his doorstep is perhaps not quite what they were expecting… It is action acting by Mads Mikkelsen, which the BoConcept interior decrators experience in The Fight. ‘Do you have something in grey?’ Our homes are very much an extension of ourselves – our hopes, our aspirations, our desires and our quirks. That doesn’t mean that decorating is easy. There is a multitude of choices out there and the process can be confusing.

doing these stunts – I may just have turned 50, but I am in super shape and I think it is so much fun to do things like this.” Mads was guided through the stunts by the professional stunt coordinator Kimmo Rajala. “Mads is very athletic and eager to make it look just right, so it was one of those projects that was a real pleasure to work on.” ‘THE FIGHT’ is directed by Mads Mikkelsen’s old friend and colleague Dejan Cukic. The special effects team is led by Hummer Højmark, an industry veteran, who has done SFX for many blockbuster action films with Mockingjay II as the most recent one. ‘THE FIGHT’ was shot on location in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, Denmark.

With ‘THE FIGHT’, BoConcept wants to highlight an Interior Decoration service that helps customers solve challenges from a corner of their living room to their entire home. In ‘THE FIGHT’ the BoConcept Interior Decoration team definitely gives Mads Mikkelsen plenty of time to focus on what he does best - acting. Although the film is just under 3 minutes long, it’s packed with action and special effects. “It’s been a while since I have had a more physically demanding role like this one” explains Mads Mikkelsen. “I really enjoyed

Planning permission? We get it.

Since 2003, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve specialised in helping developers and private individuals negotiate their way through the complex planning process. Call us for a free initial consultation. Our successful track record speaks for itself and includes the following recent projects:

New mixed use development Boscombe, Bournemouth Permission granted at Public Inquiry appeal Now under construction Ken Parke Planning worked with their clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; architect to put forward a mixed use scheme comprising 8 retail units and 51 flats. The Council planners refused the scheme for being too big and harmful to the character of the area. However, a Planning Inspector agreed with Ken Parke that the development was a rare opportunity to redevelop an entire street block which was well considered and designed so that it would not cause harm.

7 Houses on a backland Brownfield site Winton, Bournemouth Planning Permission Granted September 2015 Ken Parke Planning Consultants turned around a previous dismissed appeal to obtain consent on this controversial site in Winton. A sensitive scheme was devised with the architects which would preserve neighbour amenity and the merits of the scheme were successfully argued at the Planning Committee against local objection.

Replacement cottage in historic location Mudeford, Dorset Appeal granted September 2015 A long running battle to replace a locally listed cottage in a sensitive conservation area was finally resolved at appeal. Ken Parke Planning successfully argued that it was not worthy of listed status. An Inspector agreed that the proposed replacement building is efficiently designed and provides appropriate accommodation for this prime location overlooking Christchurch Harbour.

LAND & PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Above: Situated amongst the leafy suburbs of Lymington; a stunning, private, gated development comprising of just two elegant homes. ‘Amberview’ & ‘Amberscape’ each boast far reaching views across the Solent to the Isle of Wight. Due for completion Summer 2016.

AJ DEVELOPMENTS Before selling your house or site lets together explore the most profitable options AJ DEVELOPMENTS have spent the last 6 years building their stellar reputation amongst local communities and residential bodies alike. With their popular builds and eco-friendly developments, this has been achieved with a consistently considerate approach to the needs of home owners and local councils, but can also be attributed to their submission of realistic planning applications and well-earned partnerships.

In a recent case study, AJ purchased a site in Highcliffe; an existing house with a sizeable garden, for which an approval decision has just been reached, allowing for 3 new homes to be developed. The uplift on the home and plot which the home-owner originally contacted AJ about has been exponential, and something which was never even dreamt about by the owner before.

PPG3, which recommends houses to be built at a higher concentration over the coming years.

With a national housing shortage, home owners are increasingly exploring and undertaking the option of cashing in on appreciated land whilst remaining in their existing home. This is a particularly attractive option for those who are retired, as it frees up capital from their house without the need to relocate.

Another recent example is on a popular road in Lymington (Above); The existing house was devalued by only £100,000 with the shortened garden, but by selling off the land to the rear, plot realised £700,000. This allowed over half a million pounds worth of profit to be generated for the home-owner on the entire plot and who (prior to contacting AJ) had only been expecting a price for the existing house.

No matter where your garden is situated, whether it be to the rear, the side or in front of your house, you will have options that can be explored in order to realise the full potential on your plot. Several recent homes, have been built by the team at AJ Developments in back and side gardens, have been sold with creative access and driveway ideas.

As Brits, we aspire to a “mortgage free” status. It is for this reason that the thought of re-mortgaging or increasing our debt, can be unnerving, particularly if your whole life has been spent working towards this end. In most cases the fear of potential risk outweighs curiosity to explore the idea that you can access capital on your home, without incurring crippling charges.

Increasing in popularity as an option, those who wish to cash in on their gardens now have planning laws working in their favour as it is becoming more and more difficult for Councils to resist applications in already developed areas; This is also attributable to the new planning guideline,

Selling your garden does not need to be time consuming or complicated. A home-owner on Colemere Gardens in Highcliffe who was recently working with AJ, received an approval decision and full completion money within 12 weeks of the initial signed agreement between the two parties.

If you have any opportunities you wish to discuss, irrespective of their size, history or location get in touch with them for a free consultation. T. 01202 940206 E. info@ajdevelopments.net W. www.ajdevelopments.net

With time-scales similar to those of a standard sale, AJ have the capital available to ensure the purchase and approval of any land or property is quick and effective - No fuss!

LAND & PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Above: With a quick and simple purchase and approval, compared to the time-lines typically associated with standard practise, the development on Colemere Gardens will be due for commencement in January 2016.

Above: Serenity, Smugglers Lane North, Highcliffe. A 2500sqft chalet bungalow nestled in a private and highly sought after location, close to excellent schools and amenities. Due for completion in April 2016.

YOUR LOCAL EYES ON THE PROPERTY MARKET MOVE ON are proud to introduce you to Gina Jo Parry. Gina has worked with us since 2008 and from the tender age of 16, apart from an 18 month gap where she worked with the social housing sector and in particular with the homeless, Gina has been able to grow not only with the company but as an individual contributing towards the growth and beliefs of Move On. Sharon Canning the director says ‘Gina has sat in every seat within the company and has grown into an outstanding manager, so much so, she was promoted to General Manager in 2015 Gina is very much respected by her team and our clients.’

Landlord To Landlord Sales is an award winning national estate agency dedicated to the buy to let market and giving a win-win solution for all parties involved.

The ingoing landlord receives rent from day one, the buy to let mortgage have proof of rent being achieved and the tenants are able stay in their home. Now in its 4th year of successful trading with 95% of sales put in hand having completed. It’s success is down to the expertise involved and the total understanding of how the legalities of Tenancy Law and ensuring a smooth process.

Gina says “I have made a point of sitting in every seat in the company to ensure I understand the process from start to finish (from valuing the property to a tenant moving out). It also means as manager I know what a knock on effect one department can have on another if processes are not following correctly; this has helped to ensure systems are put in place to create a seamless and stress-free experience for Landlords, tenants, contractors and staff.

I get to support a great team who are passionate about what they do, take ownership of their roles to ensure they are up to date with all the latest legislation and always have the clients best interests at heart.

POOLE £315,000 4 – 7 Beds | Possible HMO 5% – 8% Yield

One of my key jobs is valuing properties correctly to ensure landlords are achieving the best possible rent. The greatest satisfaction that I receive from being a General Manager is working with landlords to create the best solution for their property; whether this be helping them sell, rent, rent then sale, Rent out as a House of Multiple occupancy to maximize their yield potential or simply just rent out a room for a little extra income.

I could not foresee ever working for another letting agent as I am so proud of what Move On Stands for; I am an extremely ethical person and the ethos that Sharon Canning (Director) has created certainly lines up with my values”.

ASK THE EXPERT The Mortgage Doctor offers his advise on all your mortgage needs

Letters from readers I wanted to put in an offer on a property I found but the agent said I had to see their in-house mortgage adviser before passing on my offer. I told them that I had my own broker but they insisted I saw theirs before passing my offer on. Is this normal? - P.K., Southbourne

It is common practice but certainly not normal, or allowed for that matter. From the agent’s perspective, they like to make sure that you have the means to buy the property you are making an offer on, which is understandable. For them to make a condition that you have to see their mortgage adviser is illegal. If they persist, refer them to the Estate Agents code of practice, specifically the section on Avoiding Bias. To quote: “You must not discriminate against potential buyers because they don’t want, or might refuse, to take services from you or a connected person, or someone from whom you or a connected person may receive financial benefits. You must not make additional requirements of these buyers as a condition of passing on an offer - for example, make them have a mortgage survey before you will pass on their offers.” So the legislation is there. It just needs people to stand up and hold these agents to account.

I want a buy to let property and was going to have it on a repayment mortgage. My friend says that interest only is better. What do you think? - Andrew, West Moors That is a very good question. I had a similar discussion with a solicitor lately. The answer depends on what you want to achieve. If you have the property for income, then in order to maximize your income, you need the lowest expense possible which would mean interest only as there is no element of capital repayment. If it is a long-term investment that you are doing in order to sell at a later date or you are retiring at some point in the future, then repayment would be better as you will owe either less than the original mortgage or even nothing at all. Without any mortgage, you will be able to enjoy all of the rent paid to you as income. Also if you decide to sell, your profit will be maximized by having little or no mortgage. If you are planning on having a small portfolio to live on in the future, then a mixture might be better to prevent you being over-exposed should property values drop significantly. Like taking 25% of your pension pot when retiring, you could sell a mortgage free property for a lump sum. Beware of capital gains tax though.

I look forward to receiving your letters and giving some more advice in the next issue of House.

Quay, who last year secured an exclusive deal to serve the Poole area with national auction house Network Auctions, is committed to growing their auction offering. As Duncan Challis of Quay Living explains, “Vendors’ interests are not always best served by a sale by private treaty.

Diary of Award Winning Sales and Letting Agent Move On Sharon Canning

LANDLORDS - WE CHALLENGE YOU! We recently took on a small portfolio of properties due to the landlords wanting an easier life! The couple had looked after their investment for some 20 odd years, but now felt they would like to enjoy their daily living rather than worrying about the latest legislation and the daily running of their portfolio. They are not alone with the way they were thinking, I am constantly reading books, going on courses to ensure my knowledge not only remains up to date and being ahead of changes but more importantly I am making sure my landlords and tenants can rest in the knowledge they are fully compliant and we are looking after their interests. The property industry has changed so much over the last 15 years and the private rented sector continues to grow. The private renting levels in 2000 were around 9.4% of households, by 2014 the proportion had risen to 19.9% and by 2025 they are predicting this to be around 23.9%. In London they are predicting 60% will be renters and mainly they will be in the private rented sector. Rentals are going up. January 2016 saw 11 out of 12 regions increase their rents according to Homelet Rental Index and rents have increased by an average of 5.5% (outside London). Great you might say, but I would like to ask you this, ‘how much is your time worth?’ The average cost of a letting agent looking after a property per month is probably no dearer than a night out, a ladies visit to the hairdressers or two tickets to a west end show and that is us looking after your hundreds of thousand pounds investment, your relied upon income or future pension 24/7. One wrong tenant could wipe out years of profit! Before you go to bed tonight, ask yourself what life would be like without the phone calls from tenants regarding maintenance issues, you chasing tenants for rent, checking the bank on a daily basis to see if the rent is in, you making sure you are covered by issuing the correct paperwork from the government, the deposit scheme, the Right to Rent and reside in our country paperwork, attending viewings, sourcing references, being up to date with the new rules coming in this year, next year and the year after. Give yourself a break and we challenge you to try us for a year, you won’t be sorry and you will wonder why you didn’t do it years ago. Don’t forget to try our new valuation button on our websites www.moveonrentals.com or www.moveonsales.com or www.landlordtolandlordsales.com. Look for this orange button

ALSO, SEE OUR NEW DOUBLE PAGE SPREAD ON PAGES 58 & 59. Have a good week!

K & B INSTALLATIONS

Welcome to Kitchens and Bathrooms K&B Installations are a local, family run, independent business, who have been trading successfully for over four years. With more than 15 years experience in the kitchen and bathroom industries, they have a vast amount of first hand experience with virtually all styles and types of projects. They began their journey with just one man and big dreams, and now slowly but surely having three vans on the road, progress is continuously being made. K&B installations are now very excited to have finally opened their first ever kitchen and bathroom showroom, where they can showcase some of the fantastic products that they have to offer, as well as having a static hub to finally call home for both staff and customers. Of course if there is anything outside of their range, they’ll go the extra mile and do their very best to source it for you – saving you time, and a whole lot less stress. With an objective to only supply top quality products, they really have chosen their stock carefully. Take ‘Crown’ for example. Much like K&B Installations, Crown is a family run, British company who has been manufacturing kitchens

124

for an impressive 70 years, and they are proud to stock such top quality kitchens, bedrooms and office furniture in their showroom. For bathrooms they stock many leading brands, such as Gerberit, Roca, Kudos, Burlington among others. In addition to such brands, they can also supply and install appliances, sinks and taps including Bosch, Neff, Fisher and Paykel, Hotpoint, FRANKE, Rangemaster, Barazza to name a few. With a fantastic range of worktops too, including solid wood, granite, Quartz, composite and laminate this really is a one-top-shop (or showroom rather) for all of your home’s needs. It seems that not even haut couture can resist the pride and place of a position in their store either, after recently being dubbed as an official ‘Ted Baker’ tile approved supplier. We caught up with Donna from K&B, who had this to say about their brand selection process: “Having carefully selected our products based on what we are confident in supplying and installing, we have tried to select products for all lifestyles and budgets, and with our free independent consumer

Our success is dependent on our reputation so we always ensure our customers are 100% satisﬁed. protection warranty insurance you assured that you are in good hands”.

can

rest

As of March this year (2016) they will even be stocking a small selection of quality kitchen and bathroom accessories such as shower caddies, a variety of taps and toilet seats among other bathroom accouterments by ‘Haceka’. All of which will come with a 10-year warranty, so instead of constantly forking out for replacements, you can simply swap them for a new one.

BRAND NEW showroom now open 135 Station Road, West Moors, Dorset BH22 0JF

TALKING BUSINESS

You may or may not know, but they offer completely free advice to all, so if you have an on-going or upcoming project, big or small, then pop by for a chat, and pick up some advice from the experts. Equally if you prefer a home visit, they can also come to you where in the comfort of your own home, you can see samples and discuss ideas and designs. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll even create a 3D design of your potential new project, completely free of charge, and create a quotation for kitchens and bathrooms, with a no obligations policy. Of course if you do decide to hire them, or purchase their products, they are able to carry out a full installation service, including electrics, plumbing and building work. As well as offering the possibility of also arranging the decorating, so you really have nothing to worry about.

INTERIORS

DERBY MANOR HOTEL DESIGNED AND FURNISHED BY BASIC ELEGANCE FURNISHINGS LTD Derby Manor Hotel and Restaurant, formally known as Langtry Lodge, was purchased in the latter half of 2014, with the hopes to transform this forgotten gem into a must see lap of luxury. The new owners’ objective, of the extensive refurbishment, was to restore it to its former Edwardian grandeur. The Manor was frequented by Lord Derby during the early years of the 20th century and sits on Derby Road in Bournemouth so it seemed natural to rename the building accordingly. Lord Derby enjoyed horse racing and travel and the interior design reflects his interests, whilst celebrating the opulence of the Edwardian era. The presence of Edwardian glamor and subtle sophistication can be found throughout all of the public areas, including the restaurant for fine dining affairs, the afternoon tearoom for a leisurely rendezvous and bar for a tipple or two. Taking underutilised spaces and transforming them into luxury ‘hang-out’ areas for guests.

The alterations don’t stop there, Basic Elegance have completely transformed the once plain rooms,

into chambers fit for lords and ladies alike. Each room has been given its own unique identity, with bespoke hand-crafted wallpapers, deep pile carpets you could just sink into, all complemented by Basic Elegance Furnishing’s ‘Varsace Inspired’ furniture. Fabrics such as crushed velvet, satin, and high thread count cotton, adds that signature opulent style, that Basic Elegance are so well known for. Of course a few modern additions had to be included, with every room now playing host to an en suite bathroom, a flat screen television and all of the must have amenities. These photos offer an insight into the stunning redesign, but nothing truly compares to the real thing. So, we suggest you go and take a little peek for yourself, or better yet, stay the evening. Basic Elegance offer Interior Design in Bournemouth and Interior Design in Dorset and surrounding areas. They also offer a complete Interior Design service nationwide.

OUTDOOR LIVING

WHAT TO DO IN...

YOUR GARDEN THIS WINTER Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let the weather stop you from enjoying your outdoor space During the winter the damp and blustery weather can make it easy for us to neglect our outdoor space, both at home or work. Having said this, we can expect sunny yet cold days, which are great days for really sorting our gardens out. Extreme weather can have disastrous affects on our outdoor furniture, fences, planters, and plant borders, especially if they are made from wood, as wood can split, splinter, crack and rot in British weather.

If you want to ensure that your garden will be ready to use this spring then invest in our long-lasting, affordable and durable outdoor products. From benches to walkways, we stock a variety of fantastic outdoor products that will transform the look of your garden and save you money in the long run.

WHY RECYCLE?

Also wooden decking and walkways can become dangerously slippery when wet, which makes them a potential death trap - especially for children and the elderly who might not be as steady on their feet.

At Reformed Plastics all of our products are made from 100% recycled plastic. We manufacture products ourselves and then sell direct to the Domestic and Commercial sector.

All of our decking and walkway products come as anti-slip as standard! This is a great feature as it means that you can enjoy your garden and outdoor area even in wet weather, without the fear of slipping or falling over. Not only are our products anti-slip, they do not split or splinter, will not rot or decay and are absolutely maintenance free, guaranteeing them to last over 50 years!

Due to ever increasing importance to recycle & protect the environment, our products are made from 100% recycled plastic, and is the perfect alternative to wood. Our aims are to help rebuild the environment by utilizing a commodity, which people would otherwise just throw away, and so turn what to some would be rubbish into a valuable product for everybody.

WHY ARE OUR PRODUCTS DIFFERENT? Plastic lumber is the perfect alternative to anything that has ever needed maintaining. It can be cut with a regular saw, drilled, nailed or screwed into and routed as easily as wood, but can also be cleaned with anything from only a damp cloth to a pressure washer if you wish, without causing any harm.

FINANCIAL BENEFITS Achieving value for money is a key driver for any purchasing decision. Although some recycled products have greater up-front cost, their longevity and durability make them a more cost-effective option over the long term.

ABOUT US The concept of Reformed Plastics was born over 15 years ago from the curiosity of its founder. Being an engineer by profession, and having had his own UPVC Windows business, and also being the practical and inquisitive person that he is, one day he decided to find out what was really happening to the waste that people were so freely throwing away. His research and interest lead him to focus on plastics, how it can be recycled and what it could be reused for.

142

He discovered that the USA & a few European countries had been recycling and re-manufacturing waste plastics into alternative timber products for many years, instead of throwing it all into landfill! Over time, slowly but surely he developed a few basic products in the form of planks and posts and very soon he began to receive interest from people

wanting to know more about this revolutionary product that is both an environmentally friendly alternative to normal timber and sustainable which means it will save them a lot of money in the long term! From then on, the rest as they say is history. The benefits of Reformed Plastics products: • It is UK designed and built • Bespoke design solutions • Safe and secure • No splintering • Maintenance free • Easy to clean • A range of colours and textures • Will not need painting or staining • Will never rot • Strong, durable and wear resistant • Sustainable sturdy alternative to traditional material • Non-slip decking • Lasts for over 50 years • Resistant to vandalism • Resistant to salt water • Resistant to chemicals

• Quality Decking, Fencing & Furniture. • 100% Recycled Plastic. • Can be worked with like wood. • Does not rot, split or splinter. • Strong, Durable & Weather Resistant. • Maintenance Free & lasts over 50 years!

HOW OFTEN DO YOU USE YOUR CONSERVATORY? Install a Comfort Room ceiling and you will be able to use it much more! Spring is in the air, which hopefully means the weather is warming up. Why not get your conservatory ready for the warmer weather by installing a Comfort Room insulated ceiling? A Comfort Room ceiling will not only help keep your conservatory cooler in summer, but it will also help keep it warmer in winter. Transforming your conservatory into a room that your can use, and enjoy much more often.

A Comfort Room can be installed in 2 to 3 days and a SupaLite roof in 3 to 5 so both options offer minimal disruption, unlike larger building jobs.

The glass or polycarbonate roof of a conservatory offers no protection from the suns heat, so the temperature inside can often reach unbearable heights. And, in the winter, any heat in the conservatory is lost through the roof. By Installing a Comfort Room ceiling, your conservatory will be turned into a more usable room, making it the extra space, it was always supposed to be.

Call us to find out more or visit our website comfortroomsltd.com to find out how we can transform your conservatory.

To transform your conservatory inside and out, Comfort Rooms also offers the option of the SupaLite tiled conservatory replacement roof. This option not only gives you the plaster finish interior of a Comfort Room, but the lightweight tiles give your conservatory the external look of an extension.

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring. By Nick Fletcher

‘GREENER’ PEUGEOT 208

146

Peugeot says revised engines just introduced mean its 208 model is now the bestperforming non-hybrid on the market, with emissions of just 79g/km. And its stablemate, the larger 308 model has hatchback versions from 82g/ km and the 308 SW estate – the biggest-in-class - from just 85g/km. There are two 208 models offering 79g/km, in Active and Allure trim levels, in both 3 and 5 doors, powered by the 1.6-litre BlueHDi 75hp with Stop & Start technology. These 79g/km models are capable of achieving 94.2mpg combined, can reach 106mph and are priced from £14,995 and £16,195. Other models utilising the same 1.6-litre BlueHDi engines are also available with three power level choices: in 75hp, 75hp S&S, 100hp and 120hp S&S. The 75hp, 75hp S&S and 100hp S&S are coupled with a five-speed manual gearbox. The 75hp and 100hp achieve 80.7mpg, while the 75hp S&S has economy of 94.2mpg – which is a record for the segment, and in the market. The 120hp S&S is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox and produces just 94g/km of CO2. Peugeot is rapidly reducing the CO2 emissions of all of its vehicles. Twenty models (five PureTech, three 1.6-litre THP and twelve BlueHDi) are class leading in their power class for CO2 emissions.

NEW PORSCHE 718 BOXSTER A new generation of the mid-engined two-seater Porsche Boxster has just been unveiled, powered by a newly-developed range of flat four cylinder ‘boxer’ engines with turbocharging. At the same time, a new designation is introduced; 718 Boxster and 718 Boxster S. More powerful yet more fuel efficient, the centrepiece of the new model series is the 718 Boxster, priced from £41,739, which develops 300 hp from its turbocharged 2.0-litre engine. The 718 Boxster S, from £50,695, has a 2.5-litre engine, which develops 350 hp, its greater power boosted by its use of a turbocharger with variable turbine geometry. Complementing the more powerful engines is new suspension tuning and uprated brakes.Both models use a six-speed manual gearbox. The exterior design of the new model has been completely revised, except for the luggage compartment lids, the

windscreen and the powered convertible roof. Inside, a newlydesigned dash panel frames the cockpit. In addition, the latest generation of Porsche Communication Management with touchscreen and mobile phone preparation included as standard. The navigation module is available as an option. The 718 Boxster – with optional PDK double-clutch automatic transmission and the Sport Chrono Package – sprints from 0 – 60 mph in 4.7 seconds (0.8 seconds quicker than the previous version). The equivalent 718 Boxster S accomplishes this in 4.2 seconds (0.6 seconds faster). The top speed of the 718 Boxster is 170 mph, and the 718 Boxster S has a top speed of 177 mph. Combined fuel figure for the 718 is 40.9 mpg (5.1 mpg more than previous model). The 718 Boxster S returns 38.7 mpg combined (4.3 mpg more than previous model).

AUDI A4 AWARD The Audi A4 has won the top Car of the Year title in the Contract Hire and Leasing Awards for 2015. The all-new compact executive model also secured the Compact Executive Car category award as part of the annual review of star cars conducted by UK car finance site ContractHireandLeasing.com. Citing its ‘sharp looks, improved driving dynamics, greater efficiency’, and in particular applauding the ‘stunning’ Virtual Cockpit, the judges added: “The A4 has what it takes to edge ahead of its incredibly talented rivals. In this competitive segment, praise doesn’t come any higher.

“Any car good enough to beat such talented opponents would always be in the running for the overall win, but the A4’s success was ensured by its strong residuals and appealing lease deals.” Available to order now with a combination of TFSI and TDI engines, the latest A4 saloon can also be specified with a raft of innovative options, from Matrix LED headlights to Audi traffic jam assist and a Bang & Olufsen 3D sound system. Prices start from £25,900 for the 150hp 1.4 TFSI six-speed manual, rising to £40,350 for the 270hp V6 TDI Avant with quattro and eight-speed tiptronic transmission.

MOTORING

TYRE SAFETY ALERT

ROAD TEST: SUBARU OUTBACK SE PREMIUM Subaru’s all wheel drive Outback estate car is pitched against the likes of the Volvo XC70 and Audi A4 Allroad, both tough competitors, writes NICK FLETCHER. Both may be better known, but the Outback has some aces to play – it is more capable off-road, is roomier, and is much cheaper - all key factors in this beefed-up estate car category. Outback prices start at £27,995 and while there is a choice of only two engines, a 2.5 litre petrol or a 2.0 litre diesel, they are both excellent performers. And while there are also only two trim levels, both are exceptionally well equipped. Standard SE models come with automatic LED headlamps, cruise control, Active Torque Vectoring, 17-inch alloy wheels, electrically-adjustable driver’s seat and tinted windows, as well as a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with satnav, Bluetooth and a rear view camera. The SE Premium models add a sunroof, keyless entry and push-button start, larger18-inch alloys, leather seats and a powered rear tailgate. My recent test model was an SE Premium with the 148 hp diesel engine, costing £30,995 and fitted with the optional seven-speed CVT auto transmission. The 0-60 mph time

of 9.7 seconds is quite nippy, top speed is 124 mph and fuel economy 50.4 mpg combined. That seems real-world as in over 600 miles of rural and city driving, and a long motorway trip, I averaged 48 mpg. Impressive! The Outback’s latest styling look sleek and classy, and more formidable than some rivals, and its superior image is underlined by its off-road capability – it has higher ground clearance and under-body protection and can leave some rivals embarrassed when the terrain gets really challenging. The dashboard is smart-looking with a functional layout, big twin dials and an easy to use touchscreen. Seating (leather in the test version) is comfortable even on long trips and there is plenty of space for five adults. The cabin has plenty of stowage spaces and the boot is big at 512 litres, boosted to a van-like 2,000 litres with the seats down. My only quibble is that the powered tailgate is very slow! This Subaru scores well on all significant counts and given its ultra-keen pricing, high level of standard kit, exceptional economy and the brand’s strong reputation for dependability, you have to say the Outback is truly outstanding.

Every year, tyre-related incidents result in thousands of casualties, says safety group TyreSafe: • The total number of casualties resulting from tyre-related incidents over the last five reported years is 5,677 of which 989 people were killed or seriously injured, annually averaging 1135 and 198 respectively • Where casualties arise from an accident caused by a vehicle defect, tyres are the single largest contributory factor over the last five reported years, accounting for 36% of the total • Annually, 2.2 million cars fail the MoT due to tyre-related defects and over the past three years there have been more than 15,000 convictions for tyre-related offences “What we’re urging motorists to do is carry out tyre safety checks on a monthly basis which will substantially reduce their risk of becoming involved in a tyre-related incident on the roads,” said Stuart Jackson, TyreSafe chairman. “Vehicles have become progressively more reliable over the years so fewer of us need to carry out the weekly maintenance we once did on components like oil and water, but tyres are still in direct contact with the road and all the potential physical objects on them. Even new tyres lose pressure over time and can become damaged by potholes or kerbing.”

ALL WHEEL DRIVE OCTAVIA VRS ŠKODA has introduced a new four-wheel drive version of the acclaimed Octavia vRS. Available in both hatch and estate form, the new vRS 4x4 is priced from £27,315 (£28,515 Estate) and brings all-wheel-drive capability to the vRS range for the first time. Powered by a 2.0 TDI 180hp diesel engine and equipped with a six-speed DSG gearbox as standard, the vRS 4x4 combines a high torque output with surefooted traction delivered by its four-wheel-drive system. Designed to maximise grip in all conditions, the four-wheel-drive system constantly monitors traction at each wheel and directs power to whichever axle requires it. Other features include multi-link sports suspension and electronic differential lock XDS+ for dynamic cornering, progressive steering and numerous assistance systems for enhanced safety and comfort. Octavia vRS 4x4 hatch models can sprint from 0-60mph in just 7.6 seconds (Estate 7.7 seconds) – some 0.3 seconds quicker than the 2WD model. Fuel consumption is 57.7mpg combined (56.5mpg estate). CO2 output figures are 129g/km for the hatch and 131g/km for the estate. Standard equipment includes Amundsen touchscreen satellite navigation system, 18-inch Gemini anthracite alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, sports suspension and dual-zone climate control with humidity sensor.

FREER YOURSELF FROM UNHEALTHY EATING Amelia Freer has one word of advice for convenience food fans who say they ‘don’t have time to cook from scratch’. “If you don’t have time for health, you need to eventually make time for disease.” It’s a stark warning from the no-nonsense 40-yearold nutritional therapist, blogger and author, who boasts James Corden, Sam Smith and Boy George among her celebrity clientele, but she’s passionate about inspiring positive change. “We used to [cook from scratch] in the old days, before convenience food existed - it’s only convenience food that told us we don’t have time any more and we don’t have the skill. We’ve learnt to not make the time or prioritise it, and now we feel incapable. We’ve got our priorities wrong,” she enthuses. “Preparing and thinking about food has gone to the bottom of our list.”

She’s not a fan of our reliance on sugar - “The amount of access we have to sugar now is detrimental to our health. It’s so important that people become more aware of it” - but neither does she like the word ‘diet’. “I don’t endorse or support any diet. If someone comes to me wanting to know about a diet, then I’m afraid they’ll be disappointed. Everyone’s too quick to turn things into extremeness and fads, and I think that’s really disappointing.” So is the ‘moderation’ approach better? “I hate that word because it frustrates people, but I think we have to find balance,” says Freer. “ Everyone’s different. What works for some people doesn’t work for others. Some excel at being vegan, others really, really don’t.

“If you want to be healthy and you like to have your piece of cake, it’s much better to have that slice, sit down with it and actually enjoy it,” says Freer. “Rather than this unconscious picking, where you feel a bit guilty and don’t realise how much you’re eating. If you’re going to have them [treats], do it in a healthy way.” So there you go, permission to eat cake (sort of) and be healthy. Feeling inspired? Here are three recipes from Freer’s new book Cook. Nourish. Glow. to try at home... By Kate Whiting, Press Association

Ingredients

Super Green Soup with Cashew Cream (Serves 4)

Olive oil 1 onion, chopped 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets 3 handfuls of fresh or frozen peas 700ml vegetable or chicken stock 1 small bag of baby spinach (approx 250g) 1 green chilli, chopped, to sprinkle on top A small handful of fresh parsley, chopped, to serve For the cashew cream: 150g raw cashews 300ml hot water 1 clove of garlic Zest of 1 lemon

Method A few hours before making this soup, prepare the cashew cream. Put the cashews into a bowl, pour over the hot water and leave to soak for at least two hours. Once the cashews are tender, drain and put into a food processor, along with 300ml fresh water, the garlic and lemon zest, and blitz until completely smooth and creamy. Set aside. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large saucepan, and sweat the onion until translucent. Add the broccoli and peas to the pan, cook for five minutes, then add the stock - the vegetables should be just covered (you may need to add a little extra water). Bring to the boil, then simmer until the broccoli is tender, for roughly four minutes. Don’t overcook the vegetables or they will turn a dull green. Using a stick blender, start blending the soup, adding a handful of spinach at a time - the spinach will cook as it’s mixed into the soup. Blend until the soup is smooth and thick, then stir through half the cashew cream.

Serve in bowls with a swirl of cashew cream on top and fresh parsley and chilli, if using, scattered over.

FOOD & DRINK

Individual Fish Pies (Serves 4)

PA Photo/Michael Joseph

Ingredients

Method

1 x 400ml tin coconut milk 1tbsp garlic-infused oil Juice and zest of 1 lemon 2 bay leaves 300g cod fillet (approx 2 small fillets) 300g undyed smoked haddock A splash of white wine (optional) Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 large celeriac, peeled and chopped into equalsized chunks 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, leaves picked 1 Â˝tbsp unflavoured coconut butter 150g raw king prawns 3 spring onions, green parts only, thinly sliced A small handful of fresh chives, chopped 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped, to serve

Put the coconut milk, garlic oil, lemon juice and zest and bay leaves into a large, deep pan. Add the cod and haddock and bring to a gentle simmer. Poach the fish for approximately 10 minutes until the flesh flakes easily.

Flake the fish and divide between four individual ovenproof dishes (or you can use one big dish). Add the prawns, spring onion and chives to each pot and pour over a quarter of the poaching liquid - it should have thickened slightly by now.

Remove the fillets and set aside. Add the wine (if using) to the poaching liquid, season to taste with salt and pepper, and leave to simmer over a low heat while you make the celeriac mash.

Top with celeriac mash and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the pies are golden on top.

Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6.

Scatter with chopped fresh parsley and serve with steamed greens, such as broccoli, peas or rainbow chard.

Put the celeriac into a pan of boiling water and boil with the thyme leaves until tender. Drain and mash with the coconut butter, and season with salt and pepper. 149

FOOD & DRINK

Method

4 fresh figs 4 dried figs, soaked overnight, then rinsed 120g raspberries Â˝tsp vanilla essence or seeds from 1/2 a vanilla pod 6 fresh mint leaves 6 leaves of gelatine 500g coconut yoghurt

Chopped Brazil nuts, cacao nibs and small mint leaves, to serve Blend the fresh figs with the soaked dried figs, raspberries, vanilla essence or seeds and the mint leaves until smooth, slightly thickened but still of dropping consistency.

150

Soak the gelatine leaves in water for 10 minutes. Once softened, heat them with four tablespoons of water until dissolved; add this to the coconut yoghurt and whisk the mixture until well incorporated. Pour on top of the fig mixture and place in the fridge to cool. Just before serving, sprinkle with chopped Brazil nuts and raw cacao nibs. Decorate with small mint leaves.

Gold for Dorset Gardens

Director of one of the South’s leading PR Agencies, Darren Northeast PR, shares news and upcoming events in Dorset and beyond.

Compton Acres, highly regarded as Dorset’s finest private gardens, have emerged above tough competition across the whole of Dorset, Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and the rest of the South West, winning gold in the ‘Best Small Tourist Attraction’ category at the South West Tourism Awards. This award marks the most recent accolade for Compton Acres, which was recently honoured ‘Dorset Tourism Small Attraction of the Year’ at the Dorset Tourism Awards in November 2015.

Coming to the end of the month of ‘love and pancakes’, I can’t believe how fast 2016 is moving! January felt so short that you could have blinked and missed it whilst February is moving much in the same fashion. So before we miss any more time, let’s take a look at the month that’s been and ahead to what Dorset has in store for March and beyond…

Compton Acres’ 10 acres of beautiful gardens stretch from The Italian Gardens to the Wooded Valley; they include the Rock and Water Gardens; the Heather Garden and the Japanese Garden. Compton Acres also includes its very own Café and Tea Rooms, a Specialist Plant Centre and a Gift Shop to provide a wholesome tourism experience.

February marked the annual South West Tourism Awards, the South West’s most prestigious awards for all regional businesses in the tourism industry. It was great to see several Dorset businesses pick up the gold, including The White Post in Rimpton which won ‘Pub Of The Year’ – well deserved as it boasts glorious views of both Dorset and Somerset countryside. To win an award is a great PR opportunity for businesses, so I know how much these awards mean to those who win. Congrats to all those who won and their fellow finalists too.

With the addition of this gold award to their trophy case, Compton Acres is now one of the most prestigious tourist destinations in the South West.

PR Man About Town As we come to the end of fabulous February…

Still to come in February are some fabulous acts who are due to grace the BIC’s Windsor Hall. At DNPR we have several staff members who are big pop princesses, so excitement is well building for the arrival of both the X-Factor Tour (24th Feb) as well as X-Factor queen, Leona Lewis on the 27th of Feb. Moving to March it will be that important time of year when we all celebrate and show gratitude to our marvellous mums. If you are looking for a way to thank your lovely mum, why not book in for an afternoon tea at recent South West Tourism Gold Award winners, Compton Acres, who are hosting a special Mother’s Day menu on Sunday the 6th at their café and tearooms - including free entry to their glorious gardens and a lovely potted plant to take away for all those who book.

Restaurant Review – Highcliff Grill By Dan Cutler Situated on its bold clifftop perch the Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel overlooks Bournemouth’s stunning world class beaches. The sophisticated destination boasts gorgeous views of the Dorset Coast. Over changing times, it remains contemporary, its rooms being famed for offering both elegance and comfort. Walking into the hotel we were greeted by the welcoming staff and charming décor.

March will also mark the milestone 100th year of the Bournemouth Chamber of Trade and Commerce. As Patrons of the chamber we can’t wait to celebrate with fellow chamber members in style which all starts with their ‘Rio Carnival’ themed party on the 10th of March.

To start, I went with the Hot Smoked Pork Belly with Earl Grey tea. The dish combined my love of pork with a remarkable twist; the melt in the mouth pork was superbly cooked and complimented by aromatic tea. Served with pickled mushrooms and toasted oats, it was a combination of fantastic flavours and textures.

Lastly, I was very fortunate to recently visit the 2016 City of Culture, Wroclaw in Poland on a business trip. Whilst I was there for work I couldn’t help but admire this wonderful city and it’s fantastic multi-cultural environment. If you’re looking to take a trip away from Dorset later this year on business or pleasure I can highly recommend Wroclaw.

Next came some truly remarkable main courses. I had been told by Nick that the Corn Fed Chicken would be like nothing I had ever eaten before. I can happily say that I have never had such a tasty and succulent chicken prepared so effortlessly at a restaurant. The rich, velvety smoked bacon gravy, accompanied by the creamy gnocchi and cauliflower was a culinary treat I won’t soon forget.

Thanks for taking the time to cast your eyes over this month’s edition of ‘PR Man About Town’ have a great rest of February and we hope you’ll join us again at the end of March!

The desserts were playful and took an exciting take on some British classics. The Highcliff Banoffee was a true favourite, another delight with every mouthful.

Darren Northeast, Director of Darren Northeast PR www.darrennortheast.co.uk

Altogether, the Highcliff Grill produced a fantastic dining experience. The food was exquisite and can be described as enchanting and innovative. The atmosphere to match was so relaxed and enjoyable. It is an ideal place for visitors to Bournemouth who are looking for food that won’t disappoint. www.BournemouthHighcliffMarriott.co.uk 151

2ND MARCH CRAZY GLUE, AT THE LIGHTHOUSE, POOLE

Almost exactly two years after it played Poole on a first-ever UK tour as part of its 60th anniversary celebrations, Agatha Christie’s legendary, record-breaking, smash hit thriller The Mousetrap is to return to Lighthouse, Poole’s centre for the arts. Agatha Christie’s classic thriller is a landmark in British theatre history – it has been showing in the West End ever since it first opened in 1952, making it the longest running show of any kind in history and notching up some 26,000 performances. The story finds a group of people gathered in a country house cut off by the snow who discover to their horror that a murderer is among them. Who can it be? One by one the suspicious characters reveal their sordid pasts until at the last, nerve-shredding moment when the identity and the motive are finally revealed. In her own inimitable style, Dame Agatha Christie has created an atmosphere of shuddering suspense and a brilliantly intricate plot where murder lurks around every corner.

They have a car in the garage, a chicken in the pot and a child on the way, but is that enough to make true love stick? Based on Etgar Keret’s short story, Crazy Glue is from London-based Single Shoe Productions. A tragicomedy about loss, the story follows the roller coaster of a couple’s romance as they move from the blossoming of first love through to the thornier terrain of married life. Combining clowning, dance and mime, Crazy Glue is inspired by the physical comedy of Buster Keaton and the madcap absurdity of Looney Tunes. Not a single spoken word is uttered by the captivating cast of two. Instead, they blend vocal sound effects, quirky humour and an evocative 1930s soundtrack to reveal the crazy, sticky, messy side of marriage. The project first began in June of 2012 when Single Shoe’s Filipa Tomas discovered the short story Crazy Glue on fellow Artistic Director Bradley Wayne Smith’s bookshelf. Now, after three years of devising with seven international collaborators the show inspired by that discovery has toured to popular and critical acclaim across three countries.

Can we go home?’ But things have changed. Now she has outside slippers. She can tell a chaffinch from a tit (hey). But she still can’t tell if it’s an owl or her husband’s asthma. Sarah Millican is venturing outside. Bring a cardie.
