4 Dear Southbourne, Tuckton & Hengistbury Head!

Welcome...

The Southbourne Link

It is that very festive time of year again. Yes already!

We have the whole family coming for to stay for a few days and I am really looking forward to it. What are your plans? A luxury holiday away (oh that sounds amazing), a big family gathering or just some time on your own?

Whatever you decide to do, Stephen and I hope that you can relax, have some Christmas cheer and ponder over the last year, whilst looking forward to a bright new start in 2019. Setting goals for a New Year can be quite refreshing. Do well with that one!

Edition 110

Wishing you a Fantastic Christmas. May you relax, have a laugh and look forward to 2019 with excitement.

Thank you for all your great comments and support throughout 2018!

All the Very Best to You,

Bournemouth Books on Wheels Cream Tea

Over 40 volunteers enjoyed a delicious cream tea in beautiful sunshine at the Argyll Bowls Club in Westbourne on 29th October. This annual event brings together Royal Voluntary Service volunteers from Books on Wheels and other services across the area.

Lisa Knight, Operations Manager for the South West, presented volunteer Sylvia LeGros with her 5 year badge, and volunteers Jenny and John Gurden with their 15 year medals. She thanked all our volunteers for their hard work and commitment, and the difference they make to people across their community.

Mrs. Knight gave special thanks to the county’s longest serving volunteer, Mrs. Gwen Raggett, who, now aged 92, joined the organisation in 1964 and is still delivering books on 6 rounds.

Mayor of Bournemouth, Councillor Lawrence Williams, with Gwen Raggett, Bournemouth Books on Wheels Volunteer and former Organiser (54 years of volunteering), Mrs. Williams

The Books on Wheels Service is looking for more customers: it is available free of charge to anybody who cannot easily get to their local library, and volunteers will deliver individually chosen books and talking books every 3 weeks.

For more information on receiving the service please contact Bournemouth Home Library Service on 01202 547879 or e-mail: HLS@bournemouthlibraries.org. uk; if you are interested in volunteering for us please contact Maria Jacobson, Royal Voluntary Service Manager for Dorset Home Library Service, on 01305 236666 or e-mail maria.jacobson@ royalvoluntaryservice.org.uk.

Bournemouth & Poole College showcases local talent at the fifth Dorset Arts Prize One of the largest arts prizes outside London has once again attracted outstanding submissions. This year Bournemouth & Poole College teamed up with Poole Museum to present the fifth Dorset Arts Prize.

Created to actively engage the community and help promote a broader, more inclusive vision for the arts locally, the competition was open to all Dorset artists, designers and makers. The theme for this year’s competition was ‘open’, to allow the artists the freedom to produce work in whichever format they felt most confident in.

This year the Arts Prize welcomed Sibyl Fine King, director of the Fine Family Foundation, as the newest member of the judging panel. The foundation supports Dorset-based charitable bodies working with the environment, the arts, education, health and also in community projects. Sibyl worked alongside international artist and former student Stuart Semple, international photographer Tony Worobiec and the Borough of Poole’s Museum and Arts Manager Michael Spender, to judge the competition.

Funded by the College and the Dorset Community Foundation Trust, the winners of the award categories ranged from Year 10 and Year 11’s, to the over 19’s and received rewards of up to £1,000. The winner of the Student Achievement Award also won a £2,500 bursary to put towards higher education progression or a business start-up.

This year’s winner of the Achievement Award was photography graduate Charlotte Acton. Charlotte one day hopes to open her own photography studio and expressed her joy at receiving the award, which she “really didn’t expect to win”. Charlotte was rewarded for her portraiture work. She explained how she enjoyed creating photographic portraits of her brother, who is “one in a million.” She went on to say that “his features are really unique and offer some fascinating angles.”

Parkstone Grammar School’s winner of the 16-18 year old category, Mia Pangilinan, was equally pleased with her award. Mia took the time to create a 3D piece of work depicting “the little things in life.”

Mia explained that she wanted “to take everyday things in life that we don’t appreciate and make them permanent.” Parkstone Grammar representatives Elizabeth Sturdy and Anne Batley were hugely impressed with Mia’s imaginative artwork, along with the submissions of their other students which contributed to Parkstone Grammar winning the overall School Art Prize.

The pair explained how they encourage as many of their students as possible to enter their competition, as “they have a really good chance to gain some rewards and recognition for producing such wonderful work.” Anne and Elizabeth also mentioned that their students were “hugely excited” at the prospect of their work being on display for the public at the Poole Museum.

Diane Grannell, Bournemouth & Poole College Principal, said: “It was a pleasure to work with the Poole Museum to host the fifth Dorset Arts Prize.

“The Prize has always been a fantastic way to encourage collaboration between local schools, and as a way for both students and adults in the local community to showcase their tremendous creativity and talent.

“With the artwork being placed on display in the museum, we are proud that this year the wider public can also enjoy the fantastic work that has been submitted.”

Bournemouth Town Centre BID & Bournemouth Council Collaboration Increases Free Christmas Car Parking With the Christmas period fast approaching, collaboration between Bournemouth Town Centre BID and Bournemouth Borough Council has resulted in a significant rise in the amount of free car parking which will be available in no less than 13 locations across the town centre on selected dates from the 16th November. Representing the interests of local businesses, Bournemouth Town Centre BID has worked with the council to address concerns over the impact of lane restrictions on the A338 and provide further incentive for visitors to Bournemouth this Christmas.

Bournemouth Borough Council’s yearly provision of free car parking on Sundays and Thursday evenings will return this year in selected car parks but this year it will also include the Avenue Road car park.

Free parking will be available all day Sunday on the following dates; 9th, 16th 23rd, December. From 4 pm on Thursday evenings, free car parking will also be available on the following dates; 6th, 13th, 20th December.

The car parks included are: Avenue Road, Richmond Gardens Multi-Storey, Eden Glen, Central, Richmond Hill, Winter Gardens, Braidley Road Bridge, West Hill, Town Hall Forecourt, Town Hall Extension, Town Hall Annexe, and 9/11 St Stephens Road.

Bournemouth Borough Council who were positively responsive to our request.

Complimenting the Christmas Tree Wonderland and other town centre attractions, the increase in free car parking represents another strong enhancement to Bournemouth town centre’s superb visitor experience this Christmas.”

Leader of the Council, Cllr John Beesley, said: “We are pleased to have been part of the ongoing, constructive and open dialogue with Bournemouth Town Centre BID about the pressures traders and retailers currently face.

We also recognise that most rely on the crucial Christmas period for trading. Already working with the BID to offer fabulous and exciting new Christmas attractions this year, we are pleased to extend that support to increase the Christmas car parking offer in Bournemouth.

I very much hope this will lead to an upturn in town centre visitors to shop, eat, relax and generally soak up our amazing festive atmosphere.”

Talking about Wildlife...

Thinking Green!

Sustainable living seems to have moved higher up on the news agenda’s in 2018. This year there won’t have been many of us who haven’t seen an image of a beach, home or away, littered with plastic, or a beloved marine creature wrapped up in plastic, inside and out. This raises the allimportant question: what can we do about it?

Being ‘green’ and caring for the environment isn’t easy – if it were, we wouldn’t be in this situation. The plastic that pollutes our seas exists because it’s made our lives easier in some way.

For some of us, changing our habits to move to an alterative may seem more inconvenient or expensive a�er years of taking the ‘easy option’ which has been given to us. But there are things we can do in our daily lives which take little or no effort and could actually save you money in the process.

1. Reduce single-use plastic: Say no to drinking straws, say no to single use plastic bags and say no to plastic bottles. Did you know some of these items can hang around for over 500 years before they start to break down? Buy a reusable water bottle, go without the straw or buy a material shopping bag you can use time and time again.

2. Composting: Not only is composting your food scraps great for reducing waste, but it’s also beneficial for your garden and its

wildlife. Many councils offer a food waste collection bin – if you have one, make sure you use it!

3. Seafood sourcing: Do you know where your seafood is coming from? 90% of global fish stocks are either fully or over-exploited. Use the Good Fish Guide to find out which fish are the most and least sustainable before you make your purchase. www.mcsuk.org/goodfishguide/ search 4. Replace your coffee cup: Not all takeaway coffee cups are recyclable, so why don’t you help cut down on the waste and get your own reusable coffee cup? Some cafes will give you a discount for doing so – in DWT’s Fine Foundation Chesil Beach Centre and Lorton Meadows Conservation Centre, receive a 10% discount on your coffee or tea!

5. Buy and support local: 100% of the profit from DWT’s online shop and visitor centre shops goes straight back into looking a�er wildlife in Dorset. Where possible we focus on locally sourced and made products that have acceptable environmental and sustainable credentials.

Dorset Wildlife Trust offers, in our online shop, selected ‘eco-friendly’ products, perfect for a gi� for Christmas or to change your way of living.

Nuffield Health Bournemouth Welcomes Dorset’s Only Female Orthopaedic Surgeon Nuffield Health is ‘thrilled’ to welcome Dorset’s first female orthopaedic surgeon to its evergrowing team of leading consultants.

Nikki Kelsall is an orthopaedic and trauma surgeon who specialises in foot and ankle problems, including diabetic foot conditions.

Nikki offers a regular clinic at Nuffield Health Bournemouth Hospital tending to patients with any problems affecting their feet or ankles.

Nikki often sees patients that suffer with bunions, curly toes, flat feet, foot or ankle pain, ulcers, ankle arthritis and Achilles disorders. As well as this, Nikki also commonly sees patients with soft tissue and bony foot or ankle injuries.

As a once committed dancer and performer, Nikki knows first-hand how important it is to look after your feet. Nikki Kelsall, orthopaedic surgeon, said: “I was a dancer for 13 years before studying medicine, this helps me understand why amateur and professional performers and athletes, have a drive to get back on their feet quickly, no matter their age.

“Recently I treated a man in his 70s who is a professional table tennis champion and required treatment for foot pain, but was desperate to be in tip-top shape before an upcoming match.

Seeing him at the Nuffield we were able to schedule his surgery perfectly to get him match ready in time. I was delighted to be able to help him with this.”

Nikki undertook her medical training in Bristol and Liverpool before moving to Bournemouth in 2003. Nikki added: “I’m very excited to be starting a regular clinic at Nuffield Health Bournemouth. I love building relationships with my patients and working at Nuffield gives me the opportunity and time to be able to do that in a relaxed and efficient environment.

People underestimate the importance of their

feet until something goes wrong. Foot pain can affect every aspect of your life including simply driving to work or doing the shopping as well as high level functioning on a stage or the pitch.”

In addition to her passion for treating patients with foot problems Nikki has also focused on medical education and attained her Masters in this subject in 2014. Nikki commented: “For me all the work I put in to educating more junior doctors allows me to focus not only on staying up to date myself, but also on finding ways to communicate complex subjects in an understandable way. This has changed the way that I interact with my patients, helping me to ensure they fully understand the nature of their problems and finding the best ways, with them, to improve their mobility.”

David McNair, Hospital Director at Nuffield Health Bournemouth Hospital, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Nikki to the team and have the only female orthopaedic surgeon in Dorset on our staff. Nikki’s expertise allows us to extend our offering for the benefit of our patients and provide new services.”

27 and walk with the tress in this warm, humid envelopment.

Quite an experience. We even had a neck and shoulder massage from a therapist inside.

How wonderful was that.

In the treetops There are also educational talks for the youngsters and adults alike, so you can learn as you look.

Now, I was there with two active ‘boys’. One my husband and one our 14 year old son, so this wonderful calmness I was experiencing was not going to last long. No. Mum there is an exciting, fast and exhilarating life to lead out there, after-all, there is the adventurous “Hangloose” Zip Wire and colossal Swing to fly on! Oh dear, it had to be done. Hayden and I did go on the huge swing which literally falls from a great height and hurls you into the valley above the tree tops,

Yes, let’s!

...whose bright idea?

Up, up and away... screaming away. It was a far cry from my blissful wander with nature. Fun though I have to say, but shush, don’t tell the boys that! Stephen and Hayden had a thrilling ride on Zip Wire, while I looked after the bags (a rather good excuse…). Stephen, who does not like heights, tried to get off rather quickly at the end and looked a little white, but I think he enjoyed it! Actually, both he and Hayden were grinning from ear to ear. It gave them that adrenaline rush these boys so yearn. Oh for that cup of coffee…

The whole day was truly enjoyable.

Tim Smit wanted to create a “symbol of optimism where ordinary people working together could do the nearly impossible.” What an amazing purpose. Nellie was truly impressed when we recounted our day to her.

Ever optimistic herself and always happy when we have a family day out, she also grinned from headlight to headlight.

Gardening Tips

a beginner’s

GUIDE Composting

No garden can have too much compost and rich, fertile soil is the key to great vegetables and plants. In these days of fortnightly bin collections (and the threat of slop buckets for our kitchens) why leave kitchen waste to fester in your wheelie bin when it can be put to good use?

Find a corner somewhere in the garden to start a compost heap or, if space is limited, many councils offer bins for the purpose at reasonable prices. If building your own bin, it's best to put it on a soil base which will attract worms to start work on the heap. You could use old planks of wood or chicken wire supported by posts in each corner. This works well as it is important that air can get in to help the process.

You need a good mixture of material to make good compost. If you just put in grass cuttings you'll end up with a foul, soggy mess so they should be mixed with shredded newspaper, pruning clippings (not the really woody stems)

and even cardboard. Annual weeds can go in as long as they haven't gone to seed but avoid perennial weeds like dandelions as even the smallest piece of root will produce another plant. Almost all vegetable waste from the kitchen can be used, but avoid meat, fish and cooked food as these may attract rats etc. Use crushed eggshells, used teabags, used kitchen towels and fruit and vegetable peelings. Keep the mixture damp.

The aim is to end up with something that is dark, crumbly and sweet smelling and alive with worms. If you wanted to hurry up the process, you can buy accelerants from hardware shops and garden centres but a cheaper and just as efficient method involves collecting urine, diluting it with water and wetting the heap with it. Well, what do you imagine our ancestors used?

Naturally good...

CURRIED CELERIAC SOUP WITH PARSNIP CHIPS Ingredients for 6 servings: 2 medium sized celeriac (celery root) ½ a white or yellow onion (diced) 2 sticks of celery (diced) 1 clove garlic (minced) 50 g unsalted butter 1 litre vegetable stock 250 ml double cream 1 tsp medium curry powder Pinch of smoked paprika Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 small parsnip 6 tbsp. crème fraiche

Method: 1. Use a sharp knife to remove the rough outer skin of the celeriac and then wash to remove any dirt.

2. Cut the celeriac into 1 inch cubes and place into a large heavy bottomed saucepan along with the diced onion and celery and cook on a medium heat with the butter for approximately 5 minutes without allowing it to color. This helps to release the flavors of the vegetables.

3. Next add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and continue to simmer for approximately 20 minutes until all of the vegetables are tender.

4. While the soup is cooking add the curry powder and paprika.

5. Once the vegetables are fully cooked remove the pan from the heat and use a stick blender to puree the soup until thick and creamy. At this point stir in the cream and taste the soup for seasoning, make sure you add the right amount of salt and pepper to help bring out the flavors of the soup.

6. If you like your soup a little spicier, then add some more curry powder.

7. To make the parsnip chips peel the parsnip and then use a vegetable peeler to slice the parsnip into thin long strips, deep fry in hot vegetable oil for 2 minutes until crispy and then drain onto paper towels and season with a little sea salt.

8. Place the soup back on the stove for a couple of minutes to make sure it’s piping hot.

9. To serve spoon the soup into bowls and then drizzle with a generous spoonful of crème fraiche and top with a sprinkling of parsnips crisps and freshly chopped parsley or micro shoots.
