welcome
to the Highcliffe Eye Community Magazine
editor’s letter
I’d like to give a warm welcome to all you new readers out there; as the magazine has grown, this has enabled us to widen our distribution to hundreds more homes within Highcliffe. Although we are a community magazine bringing you many local business and community articles, we are actually funded by advertising. By using the local services within these pages and mentioning where you saw them, this will in turn enable us to keep producing our magazine for you, for free. We’d like to thank all our readers, both old and new, for your continued support and we hope you enjoy our latest edition. Happy Reading,
Cheryl Cheryl Dennett Editor & Publisher

s Spring slowly buds into life, the cheery heads of yellow daffodils beginning to sprout remind me that it will soon be my wedding anniversary. This year is one of those landmark ones — silver, a whole 25 years! Over Rachel 21 of those years have been happily spent here in Christchurch, and with no shortage of restaurants to choose from here we’ve had many a celebratory meal in town.
We’ve been to a cheapish and cheery pizza place, (where I knocked over a bottle of red), the usual Chinese, Indian’s and carvery’s, various pub’s and on one occasion a very expensive one (with portions so tiny we had a trip to Bargate’s chippy on the way home!). However, the one that sticks out most in my memory was our very first anniversary meal as Christchurch residents. We chose a lovely local English restaurant which was fairly lavish by our standards, but had a good reputation for excellent food. We were not disappointed. My husband chose a starter of deep fried camembert, a main of chicken in a rich creamy sauce, and a dessert of a large portion of creme bru·lée (a ‘90s menu if ever there was one!). Did you spot his deliberate mistake? Yep, an extraordinarily large cream overdose! Whilst enjoying each course on it’s own merits, by the time we came to pay the bill I was left holding the credit card while my husband, who had begun to look a bit green round the gills, dashed outside and revisited all three courses in the bushes! Out of 25 years of celebrations, why is it always the disasters we remember most?! I don’t know where we’ll end up this year, but I do know what my present is: remember my new little rescue doggy, who has brought us nothing but joy and laughter since he arrived? Well, we’ve called him Silver! An English Mum
I
’m Larry, a funny and sweet lurcher. I’m around 18 months old and 27 inches to the shoulder. I’m a smart dog and will do anything for food. I could live with other dogs or children. I’m clean in the house and have good recall. I love fluffy toys and plenty of cuddles. I would make an amazing pet for an active family.

Dream Doors (Poole & Christchurch) Win Checkatrade Award for 2013! 2013 was a fantastic year for us. At our annual conference we were awarded the top award for year on year growth, runner up for overall sales for 2013 but most importantly Checkatrade gave us their award for Dream Doors Franchisee of the year! This prestigious award is reflective of what many of our customers have independently said and scored us on the Checkatrade feedback forms.
Celebrating the opening of the Christchurch showroom
This was a huge achievement for us, and one that we didn’t expect, particularly since we have only just completed our 3rd year of trading. We commenced trading as Dream Doors Poole in January 2011, opening our first showroom in Broadstone in March. Despite this been at the height of the recession, we built on quality products and services, to offer customers a real alternative to the normal kitchen replacement. As a Franchise business we cover the whole of the BH postcode district and soon realised that in order to fully support our customer base we needed to expand. After careful consideration we decided Christchurch would be an ideal location for us, so in October 2013 we became the first Dream Doors Franchise to
open a second showroom. We have carefully designed our showroom to optimise the space and incorporate a wide selection of our products to show our customers how we can transform their kitchen. Since opening the new Christchurch showroom we have continued to go from strength to strength. Already we are building a strong customer base which is reflective in our rapidly expanding Checkatrade results. Looking forward, we are excited at the prospects of making the Christchurch branch as successful as the Broadstone branch, and providing our new customer base a real alternative.

T
he Mexican standoff between the three supermarket developers in Christchurch appears to have left only one supermarket standing. A packed Christchurch Council Planning Committee meeting again firmly threw out the plan by Beagles in Stony Lane Christchurch
Peter
to sell their factory to Morrisons to develop a supermarket. This was their second major attempt and the building had been redesigned and the traffic flows had been reconfigured. However the Council Committee remained very concerned about the trade diversion such a development would cause. They were unconvinced by suggestions that “linked trips” (people coming to the supermarket and going on into the town) would negate the adverse affect the supermarket would have on Christchurch High Street. The following week the same planning committee robustly refused the application for a large supermarket to be developed at Meteor Park (the site at the top of Somerford where the old PC World stands). The site still has planning permission for a large food store, but their attempt to get that extended to an even larger supermarket was rejected. The only surviving planning permission for a large supermarket, likely to be ASDA, is at Bailey Bridge behind the retail park on Barrack Road. Outline planning permission for this supermarket exists although they seem strangely slow in coming forward with the detailed planning application that will enable them to start work. It is clear there is insufficient demand in Christchurch to justify three new supermarkets. Having just the one in West Christchurch may well be the best way forward. However so much money is at stake for the developers that appeals may yet be issued. Accordingly we still cannot be certain that future range of Christchurch supermarkets is finally decided.

Garden View
No one likes a soggy bottom! It’s a phrase normally associated with BBC2’s Great British Bake Off, but its not just cooks who go to great lengths to ensure their produce (pastry in this case) doesn’t end up with a soggy bottom, it affects gardeners too! I’m not talking about sitting on wet grass, or toppling over in the veg plot after too much potting-shed homebrew, but about the poor plants we expect to grow in badly-drained soil. Out in the wild, a plant’s survival depends on whether its seeds blow into a dry rock face or a sticky clay soil puddle, and that’s fine because one will die while the other thrives. But it’s very different in the domestic garden, where over-enthusiastic humans buy anything that looks pretty, dig a hole and expect it to bloom. The right plant for the right soil is as important, if not more so than its tolerance to sun or shade.

Studies show that plants cannot survive for more than just a few days if left in standing water. It’s a little known fact that roots need air too … well, most plants that is. You see there’s a clever lot who have adapted over the years to thrive in such conditions and they’re commonly known as bog plants. I understand it’s not the most glamorous name, unlike their closely-related cousins such as water lilies, which are known as hydrophytes. Plants that thrive in heavy, wet clay soils, which are damp but not permanently waterlogged, include the beautiful bold leaves of the Hosta, the feathery plumes and delectably dissected foliage of the Astilbe, and any of the Primulas, which are ideal for low-growing spring colour. For fern lovers, Osmunda regalis is a favourite or for a splash of summer colour in full sun try Lobelia cardinalis. If you have a larger garden and need to fill areas of damp soil, try the herbaceous Rodgersia which look great planted in drifts, and if you have a really large area why not try the prickly rhubarb-like Gunnera manicata: children will love standing under the giant leaves of its huge green umbrella! If you don’t have a boggy area, but would like to try growing some of these plants for yourself, why not create one? If you dig out a ‘mini pond’ and then add an old liner or plastic sheet, pierce it several times with a fork and then add the soil back in, you can plant a selection of the plants above. You’ll need to make sure it doesn’t dry out in the summer, so a shady location usually works best, and if you’ve only got a teeny garden, try the fly-eating pitcher plants Sarracenia. They will provide a talking point. Until next month, enjoy your garden

he wheels of Highcliffe Rotary Club continue a pace as we are well into the New Year whether that be with our own events or in conjunction with of other nearby Rotary Clubs.
Mike We have again donated £1,000 to the Christchurch Food Festival Education Trust and the funds will be used to provide a 7 week course to selected pupils of Highcliffe School who have been identified as being in most need of additional support so they may be given the opportunity to develop a valuable life skill or to enter the hotel and catering industry. The course will be run by a qualified chef and be for up to 11 students and provides an understanding of budgeting, purchasing, basic food hygiene and the practice of food and cooking. Past courses that we have funded have produced outstanding results from all participants.

Over the past three years in cooperation with some of our local Rotary colleagues, we have been providing books to Schools in Uganda. The books are sourced by local schools and local parents and are sorted, indexed, packed and sent via DHL airfreight charity account to Uganda. So far, fifteen school libraries each with 1300 books have been created and the Ugandan children are ecstatic, as until now they have had no books and have learnt by rote from a blackboard and generally the schools where the libraries have been created have improved the learning of the pupils by a whole year. We have also provided football kit to some Ugandan schools courtesy of the generosity of Highcliffe School. Our next major fundraising event will be our Charity Golf Day on Tuesday 20th May 2014 at the Highcliffe Castle Golf Club when proceeds will go to the Smile4Wessex in support of the Children’s neurological centre at Southampton General Hospital. If you would like any more information on the above or Rotary in general then please call me on 01425 622658.

Christchurch NeighbourCar Needs You
C
hristchurch NeighbourCar is a volunteer car scheme that has been running successfully for over five years. The scheme covers residents in the BH23 area and provides a door-to-door transport service for medical trips for those who have difficulty accessing public transport. Trips are paid for by suggested donations of 50p per mile. The volunteer drivers receive expenses to cover their mileage; they also enjoy the feeling of helping their community. Drivers offer as much time as they can spare and there is no obligation on them. Having made a success of the scheme Clare Walker, the co-ordinator, is looking to hand over the reins at the end of March to a willing volunteer. The co-ordinator receives calls, on a dedicated phone line, from clients and then asks the volunteer drivers if they would be available to provide transport for the requested trip. Currently there are 14 drivers who help over 600 clients on the books. Success of the scheme enables Clare to make a donation to different local charities at the end of each year. The drivers are also rewarded with a social event to thank them for their efforts. Do you think you could spare a few hours a week to help keep Christchurch NeighbourCar going? Would you like to know more? Please contact Erica Pretty from Dorset Partnership for Older Peoples Programme (POPP) on 07825 145726 or email: e.pretty@dorsetcc.gov.uk
