Dear Swanage!

Dare I say… At the time of this writing the weather has been really good! We had a great weekend away with the Cubs and Scouts camping. Having recently bought a converted van, this was an ideal opportunity. The van is used to transport all the magazines each month, but at the weekend the little fridge and cooker come into their own. I have to say I love it! Waking up in the middle of a field, not literally of course, and seeing the sun rising was really quite liberating! Hayden went climbing, abseiling, jumping up and down on trampolines, making fires and cooking apples, shooting at targets and generally having a whale of a time. I was never a girl guide myself and I have to say I think I missed out! If you have any Girl Guide or Scouting stories and photos, do send them to us and we will print them for you. Nothing like bringing good old memories back!

This month inside The Swanage Oracle you will find all of our local trades and business people who would love to hear from you. Do use the index to find what you are looking for. There are many events coming up too, with a selection to be found on pages 28 and 29. Swanage Evening WI have some information on page 18 and budding actors wanted on page 14. What’s On at the Mowlem can be found on page 26. The prize wordsearch offers a meal out at the Bull & Boat, which sounds very tasty! Don’t forget if you have a club or society in Swanage, we would love to promote you. This is free. If you have a business in the area, please give me a call and we can help you get more business.

Have a great month of May!

Jur. Jaunt: Tyneham Village, South Circular Route

Area: Wareham/Lulworth Distance: 2.5 miles or 4 miles Difficulty: Easy/Med or Med/Hard Access Restrictions? Yes - See Range Opening

times link on:

www.jurassicjaunts.co.uk Two options here a 2 ½ mile walk with on reasonable ascent and descent, or a 4 mile walk with an additional steep ascent on the 2nd part. Again, fantastic views along the coast in both directions.

How to get there: - Grid Reference; 882803.

Turn right for Kimmeridge/Creech off the Wareham Bypass. Follow the road for about 3 miles; proceed up the hill along the edge of the wooded area until you reach the top of the ridge. Follow the road for about ¼ mile to a sharp left-hand bend. Here you want to branch right for 1/3 mile and then take a left turn down to Tyneham village.

Information:- There is a small charge here which goes towards the upkeep of the village and surrounding area. Free toilets are available. The village, which includes a church, ruins from the 2nd World War and a re-constructed school, as it was in World War II, is well worth a visit.

Walk details:- From the car park, proceed along the track in the opposite direction to the way you entered the village. The toilets are on the left after about 100 metres, at the 90 degree bend at the end of this track.

Go straight ahead, over the stile or cattle grid and follow the path up to Gadd Cliff (1/2 mile). This offers extensive views to

01929 408080

both east and west. Go over the stile, turn right for 50 metres, then right again, looking west towards Wobarrow and Mupe bays.

Descend into Wobarrow Bay, with views of Wobarrow Tout to your left, and your choice of how to proceed is made here. Either turn right up the gravel track and head back to the car park or you can continue on the 2nd section by turning left down the track towards the beach, then right after about 50 metres. This will lead you to the climb you see ahead of you which takes you up the edge of Flowers Barrow fort (1/3 mile).

At the top, staying inside the yellow posts, turn right and follow the path beyond the Trig point until you come to a junction in the path (1 ¼ miles). With a choice of straight on, or sharp right, turn sharp right and follow the track down to Tyneham village (2/3 mile).

Better care for patients with dementia “ONE gentleman was very vocal, and we discovered he liked to sing. We bought CDs of his favourite music - Frank Sinatra and swing - and he would sing to his heart’s content. He didn’t have a bad voice either...”

The use of music is just one initiative helping older patients to cope with what can be a challenging and confusing experience.

Dr Sue Hazel is the Royal Bournemouth and Christchurch hospital’s lead consultant in dementia care, the implementation lead for the National Dementia Strategy within the two hospitals.

Sue says this strategy has been the catalyst for a range of change across the two hospitals, as well as at Poole Hospital, and has helped to create a new era of progressive and patientcentred care.

“We already work closely with our colleagues at Poole and the merger will give us an even more unified front,” said Sue. “We will have a greater impact in areas like ward environments, staff training and community involvement.”

At Poole Hospital, consultant geriatrician Dr Premila Fade highlights the flagship Lulworth ward, where changes to the ward environment have been used to support dementia patients.

“We improved the layout, colours and lighting to make the ward more welcoming,” said Premila. “A hospital visit can be very confusing for patients

Dr Sue Hazel working with colleagues with dementia, and anything we can do to make the environment easier helps.

“Since Lulworth was refurbished we’ve been able to use the principles on other wards too.”

Memory clinics for older and frailer patients, specially trained dementia ‘champions’, volunteer mealtime companions, unique patient ‘life diaries’ to help a patient’s stay that much more individual and comforting - all these initiatives and more form part of the award-winning and innovative work in place at all three hospitals.

• Poole’s dementia carers played a key role in developing the hospital-wide Human Touch campaign, with 10 golden rules advising all staff how best to ensure that patients’ privacy and dignity is respected.

• As well as the Dementia Care Pathway guidelines, Bournemouth also has its own ‘top tips’ for nurses around carrying out personal care, nutrition and bedtime among others.

• Volunteer mealtime companions at both trusts – as well as brightly-coloured cutlery and crockery – help encourage patients to keep up their food intake as well as create a friendly mealtime experience.

Environment matters: Poole Hospital’s Lulworth Ward has been redesigned to benefit patients with dementia

National Trust in Purbeck An annual survey of Purbeck National Trust volunteers reveals the many and varied activities they have been getting up to in the last 12 months.

In Purbeck we are lucky enough to have around 250 regular volunteers, supplemented last year by more than 150 others who helped out occasionally or on a one-off basis.

External groups, including Purbeck School, other schools and colleges and employers, brought a further 600 to join the party, mostly on one-off tasks in the countryside.

Guests on working holidays in Purbeck carried out a total of 840 hours.

Between them, this small but dedicated army gave more than 30,000 hours of their time over the course of a year.

The largest group comprised the countryside volunteers, who last year numbered about 120 and notched up a combined total of more than 10,000 hours.

Their largely unseen work helps protect important habitats like Purbeck heathland and increases our knowledge of the animals and plants which live there.

They also ensure the countryside is a place everyone can enjoy by maintaining paths and stiles and support our rangers in general countryside management tasks.

Other volunteers help welcome our visitors to Studland Beach and Corfe Castle. Still others work in education, passing on specialist knowledge of everything from birds and insects to medieval history.

And it doesn’t stop there. We have handy people, gardeners, photographers, and we have just taken on our first video filmmaking

01929 408080

volunteer.

Volunteers are vital to the work of the National Trust. In 2011/12 they contributed four million hours nationwide – equivalent to £33.6 million. Without them, we simply wouldn’t be able to continue the work we were founded to do – looking after special places for ever, for everyone.

Becoming a National Trust volunteer in Purbeck can be as easy as coming along to one of our regular monthly drop-in sessions.

There’s no commitment, and you can stay for an hour or all day if you want to.

Meanwhile, we are currently on the lookout for the following: • Someone with carpentry experience to join the countryside team, as well as general handy people, • Retail volunteers for the shop at Knoll Beach – would include looking after plants for sale, • Active types to join a new team maintaining gravel tracks. May include training in skills such as tractor driving, • Friendly people to help welcome visitors to Studland Beach and the Discovery Centre.

Whichever role you choose, you can be sure of a warm welcome, the chance to meet new people and be part of a team, and the knowledge that you are supporting a worthwhile cause.

To apply for any of the roles above, or for more information about volunteering including drop-in sessions, please contact Rachel Rodman on 01929 452306 or email rachel.rodman@nationaltrust.org.uk.

the finance

CORNER

Making money from your unwanted clutter If you needed to leave your home quickly, most of us could grab a bag and fill it with the things we needed most. So the reality is that we don’t actually need a great deal of what we surround ourselves with. In previous articles we’ve covered the issues of evaluating what you buy BEFORE you part with the cash, but what about all those goodies you’re sitting on that could raise you money by selling them?

There are lots of options to get rid of that clutter. EBay is an obvious one and depending on what you’re selling a small fee will apply. It’s a good system if you’re happy to go online and upload photographs and a description of what you’re selling and you can choose whether to post goods or have them collected from you. This isn’t great if the item is bulky as you’re targeting potentially the whole of the UK. Gumtree is another option which has local sites so that you can push your items out to just your local area. It’s also a free service so you get to save a few pennies there too.

If you’d rather avoid the whole ‘computer thing’ then of course the back of your car is a totally different option! Car boot sales are hugely popular and are available in lots of places and it gives you a chance to take lots of items in one go to sell, as well as enjoying some fresh air and a cup of tea at the same time. Plus, you get to see happy faces walking away with your unwanted items and you with an ice cream tub of cash!

Be a bit ruthless this spring and make some money with things you don’t need any more.

Insurance for the over 50’s: WHY DO WE DO IT? Age UK and its predecessors have been offering commercial products and services for over 30 years. So with this in mind it’s fair to say we have a wealth of experience in this field but what many people want to know is why do we exist and how do we help older people?

Age UK the charity, exists to help those in later life with various things from benefits and social care to health and well-being. Age UK Enterprises exists to provide older people with a choice of quality products and services that offer value for money and are tailored for the over 50’s. A lot of older people have specific requirements that are not catered for by many financial services providers and Age UK Enterprises aims to help where others have failed.

The next question often asked is how do we know all this? How do we know older people are being failed by financial services providers? Well, we started providing insurance and other services simply because older people were telling us they couldn’t get it elsewhere. Our customers want to understand what they are getting for their money, so they’re not caught out by hidden extras or small print. We do not claim to always be the cheapest but we do want to best meet the needs of our customers at the best possible price.

So, how do we deliver all this? By working in partnership with our product providers we try to fill this gap in the

01929 408080

market for older people. Through our national network of Age UK’s (your local one is AGE UK BOURNEMOUTH) we offer face-to-face advice where we help older people have access to services such as Energy, Funeral plans and Personal alarms to Travel, Home and Car insurance. We also assist with Equity release and Annuities.

Several people also want to know what are the benefits of Age UK Enterprises, why should they consider us over the likes of power-houses such as Aviva or Saga? Apart from providing an offering which addresses the needs of those in later life, Age UK Enterprises is also a social enterprise - this means that profits raised are gift aided back to the charity. In the last financial year we were able to give a fantastic £23 million which was used directly to fund the charity’s work.

So in conclusion Age UK Enterprises exists because it is needed. It is needed at the request of older people, it is needed to help where other providers fail and it is needed because it provides vital funding for the important work the Age UK charity does. Both employees and customers alike can take great pride in that knowledge.

APART FROM track days where do you get as much funâ&#x20AC;?? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of what my brain kept repeating each time I got behind the wheel of this fun supermini.

Everything about the new Peugeot 208 is so exciting - right from the tiny, sporty steering wheel to the grip the car has around corners.

I really feel Peugeot is back on track with its contribution to the hot-hatch market. Way back in the 205 GTI days the French car maker had that particular market sewn up â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and the 205 was, and still is, an icon in the motoring world.

The 208 will become a legend too; no doubt about it. It has the looks, feel and performance of a true supermini as well as all the safety gadgetry you need for modern day motoring.

My test car looked superb cloaked in a Spirit Grey paintjob combined with a black and grey leather effect interior trim. Its 17 inch alloys looked fat against its diminutive but muscular body and its rear spoiler and double chrome tailpipes looked â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;the dogâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

On starting the engine, the 1598 cc engine sounds promising, and once you engage first gear and take off, you know this car is not your usual little motor. For a start, the gearshifts feel precise and sporty and the car is eager â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a dog straining at its leash until it can find an open stretch. Then, when you do find a suitable uncluttered bit of road, you can set the 208 free. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when it sits back on its haunches for a moment before launching into a blistering attack on the asphalt. The 156 bhp is certainly apparent and the 0-62 mph comes in 8.1 seconds, climbing where legal, (German autobahns calling?) to 134 mph.

Available in both three and five door body style variants, the 208 is certainly the embodiment of an exciting new direction for Peugeot. No surprise then that there has been an incredible

01929 408080

and positive response to the new 208, illustrated by over 7,500 orders so far. It really has been a tremendous start for the car, as it was also named â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Best Superminiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at the Auto Express Awards during the first week of launch.

The 208 also obtained five stars from Euro NCAP, certifying its safety credentials, and was the first car in its segment to achieve this following the introduction of more demanding review criteria.

So, if you still want hatchback practicality but you are also after a uniquely intuitive and pleasurable driving experience, stop off at your local Peugeot dealer and take a test drive. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be disappointed.
