Swanage Disabled Club’s New Care Bus Swanage Disabled Club would like to thank everyone locally for their support last year. The Carnival Committee for including us in their donations, Travis Perkins and Mark Albury for materials and work on fencing and weed clearing. Ibstock Bricks for supplying materials to improve our garage and work carried out by Vic Saville to hopefully prolong the life of our garage where we house our Care bus.

Our most surprising ‘gift’ was of a new (06) Care bus from Wimborne Disabled Club who have had to disband, due to health reasons of the Chairman and being unable to find a replacement. So now we have two buses for use in the community and for our members.

We are always looking for new voluntary drivers and escorts – just give us a call if you can spare some time to help our elderly and disabled members. We’ll also make most

Talking about Wildlife

Talking about wildlife...

Woodlands Woodlands have always held a fascination for humans, and a visit to the woods refreshes the mind and lifts the spirit at any time of the year. British woodlands are wonderfully rich with wildlife; ranging from large mammals to the tiniest insects, and from bluebells to gigantic ancient trees, there are thousands of species to observe at all seasons.

Native woodlands and what remains of ancient woodlands are the best habitats for biodiversity, and particularly important for many threatened species.

Generally, areas with the best availability of light support the largest of variety of plant life, on which the animal kingdom depends to a great degree.

Both native and non-native animals make the woods their primary home, and some woodland fauna such as dormice have all they need there; the canopy for shelter and hazelnuts for food (although dormice can also be found living in hedgerows, a sort of mini-woodland). Other species such as deer and many birds frequently venture into different habitats including heaths, grasslands and even our back gardens, sometimes moving from one habitat to another depending on their changing needs in different seasons.

Woodland habitats are generally rich with insect life as well as nuts and seeds, and support a variety of birds from resident species like our mysterious owls, to seasonal migrants. Some are shy and elu si v e , b u t m an y w oo d l an d b i rd s including the tit and the finch families like human habitats as well, as our gardens can be similar to woodland edges or rides. Even more species will swell the garden population during harsh winters when food in the woods is scarce.

SO February 2013 page 8

Dorset’s woods are well worth a visit at any time, but especially in early spring as the woodland flowers put on their show, taking advantage of the light before the trees are in leaf.

Visit dorsetwildlifetrust.org.uk/reserves to plan a woodland visit near you.

Jurassic Jaunt

14

www.facebook.com/SwanageOracle

Jurassic Jaunt: Kimmeridge Quarry, Northern Route A pleasant 3-mile downland walk situated between the coastal path and the inner ridgeway. This walk is an up-and-back walk with a loop at the top. Some open fields and some shaded areas. Ideal for a casual walk with a picnic. No significant ascents or descents on this walk .

How to get there: - Grid Reference; 918801. Turn right for Kimmeridge/Creech off the Wareham Bypass. Follow the road for about 4 miles, up onto the ridge and descend the other side. Turn right for Kimmeridge and after about a mile, just after a right hand bend, park in the quarry car park on the left .

Information: Toilets There is a village shop with toilets in Kimmeridge about 1/2 mile further down the road, and about ¼ from the end of the walk .

Walk details: As you leave the car park, turn right and follow the bend around to the left and after about 100 metres, cross the stile on the right-hand side of the road. Go straight ahead, down to the wooden railings and follow the Footpath sign (100 yards).

At the gate, bear about 45 degrees left to a stile in the hedge (200 metres).

Follow the path through the woods, over the wooden bridge and out into the field.

As you enter the field, aim about 20 degrees right and w a l k t o t h e s t i l e ab o u t halfway along the right-hand hedge (1/4 mile).

SO February 2013 page 14

After going over the 2 stiles in this hedgerow, bear 20 degrees left to a stile in the far hedge (200 metres). At the gateway, face the telegraph pole in the middle of the field and bear 30 degree left and head for the telegraph pole near the corner of the field (300 metres). Just to the left of the telegraph pole is a stile in the hedge. Cross this, go straight ahead, up some gravel steps and follow the path up to the gate at the road (200 metres).

Turn left, and after about 30 metres, take the right-hand track, signposted ‘Ridgeway ¾ mile’. Follow this for about 300 metres until you reach the pathway.

Turn left, proceed to the sharp right-hand bend but cross the stile in the left-hand corner (150 metres). This will take you back down to the road (400 metres).

Turn left, follow the road back to the gate you exited from when coming onto the road (600 metres). Turn right and retrace your steps back to the quarry ).

'THE INWARD ISLE: A WRITER'S EDUCATION' Presentation by PAUL HYLAND 7.30pm Wed 6th March in Wareham Town Hall, Wareham Town Trust AGM A rare opportunity to hear author, Paul Hyland talk about the Isle of Purbeck.

Paul is best known in Dorset for his book, 'Purbeck: The Ingrained Island' (Gollancz/ Dovecote). Four of his travel titles have been Books of the Year in UK or US broadsheets and two of his volumes of poetry have won awards. Much of his work has been broadcast on BBC radio. His highly-praised excursion into pure biography, 'Ralegh's Last Journey' (HarperCollins), revisits the last twenty weeks of Sir Walter Ralegh's extraordinary life. Paul's full-length 'Art of the Impossible' show, presented locally at Purbeck Art Weeks and Bridport Open Book Festival, combined poetry and traveller's tales with magic. He is a member of the Magic Circle as well as the Society of Authors! His talk will begin with the spell Purbeck cast on him and how it has repeatedly inspired him throughout his life.

All are welcome. ÂŁ2 admission (Free admission to members of Wareham Town Trust) For more information please contact Hilary Evans, Hon Secretary, Wareham Town Trust E: hilary@eastsreet.plus.com, T: 01929 551828, W: www.warehamtowntrust.org.uk

Photographic Competition to find a different view of the Jurassic Coast There are just a few weeks left to enter the Jurassic Coast photography competition and the chance of a stake in its £1800 prize fund.

The 2013 Jurassic Coast Award photography competition is open to anyone who can lay their hands on a camera and recognise a different angle or view of the Jurassic Coast when they see one.

The competition, which has a closing date of 25 February, celebrates the internationally recognised Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site (The Jurassic Coast), and is sponsored by the Fine Family Foundation and endorsed by the Jurassic Coast Trust.

The award is an opportunity to capture the unique visual appeal of the coast and will be judged in three categories ‘My Special Place’, ‘A Point in Time’ and ‘Close up Coast’.

Inspiration to get snapping can be seen on the BBC website where a gallery of images taken by the World Heritage Team has been published, follow the link from the Jurassic Coast Award page www.jurassiccoast.org/award.

The judging panel is being led by photographers Ben Osborne, Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2007 and Joe Cornish one of Britain’s most celebrated landscape photographers.

‘Winter is one of the best times of the y ear for land scap e ph otograph y’, explained Ben Osborne, ‘The low light is especially good for images of the south-

SO February 2013 page 20

facing Jurassic Coast. A dusting of snow is still a possibility and atmospheric conditions are always photogenic. One thing is for certain, if you want to be in with a chance to win you have to be out there with a camera’.

The free-to-enter competition is open to all ages with a first prize of £500 to the adult winner and £250 for the youth category as well as runners up cash prizes.

The competition is supported by Dorset Wildlife Trust with winning entries to be displayed on the BBC Photographic Gallery and at the Fine Foundation Chesil Beach Centre during Easter 2013. Dorset Countryside will host the exhibition in the Fine Foundation Gallery, Durlston Castle in May 2013 and the Lulworth Estate in June 2013.
