‘L’otter’ fun had celebrating the official launch of Otter Oasis at the Oceanarium, Bournemouth The official VIP launch event to celebrate the Oceanarium’s first-ever mammal display ‘Otter Oasis’ was a huge success, with more than 200 leading travel and tourism industry professionals, media and the Mayor of Poole, Cllr Chris Bulteel in attendance.

Having taken place on Tuesday May 17, guests gathered to celebrate the launch of the new enclosure which has created a brand new experience for visitors and is now home to two Oriental small clawed otters called Bea and Buster.

Guests enjoyed complimentary bubbly, delicious Koh Thai Tapas and had the opportunity to have a relaxing Oriental hand massage courtesy of Southbournebased Hush Holistics. Bea and Buster were full of excitement at the arrival of th e i r gu e st s an d p u t o n a gre at performance, swimming and playing in their new home.

Oliver Buttling, Group Curator of the Oceanarium, said: “We had a fantastic turn out for the event. The otters were really playful and guests thoroughly enjoyed seeing them explore their enclosure. We’re now looking forward to continuing the celebrations with our family activity week at the end of the month. It’ll be an ideal opportunity for new and regular visitors to come and see Bea and Buster in their new home, while enjoying a fun day out.”

A series of feeding sessions and talks will

TSL June 2011 page 6

take place throughout the week, packed with lots of interesting facts to learn about the furry friends, including how they play and juggle with rocks and pebbles and how they communicate using different calls, cries and instinctive sounds from their intelligent otter vocabulary.

Otter feeding sessions are at 10.30am and 1pm daily.

To complement the otter adventure, visitors can order otter cookies from the Offshore Café and can purchase otter souvenirs from The Cove gift shop to remember their trip, with a week-long special offer to take advantage of.

RAC Gives One SouthWest Dealership an Award for its Service Workshop Quality Programme This year, RAC gave only one dealership in the South West of England an award for its Service Workshop Quality Programme; that was Christchurch-based family-run Keith Motors. The award was achieved through quality checks carried out independently by the RAC between January 2010 and January 2011, who arrived unannounced at the Lyndhurst Road dealership and randomly picked any car serviced or repaired that day.

Keith Motors received a 100% pass rate on all checks carried out and the audit complies with Ford Motor Company Premium Status. The award was presented to Keith Motors by Ford Motor Company’s southwest regional business manager Andy Sanders to recognise their outstanding achievement.

Colin Walker, Keith Motors’ service man ag e r sa id “ It’ s great for Keith Motors to be recognised as the only dealership in the South West to achieve this RAC accolade for our quality servicing – the team work really hard to provide a consistently high level of service and workmanship – well done team!”

Robin Webb, dealer principal added “This year has been really good for us – I think that our customers

TSL June 2011 page 8

tend to prefer our friendly, family-run feel, especially in these difficult economic conditions. In March, we invited clients and VIP guests to a Ford Focus launch event ahead of the national launch; plus 2011 is Keith Motors’ 60th anniversary, where we are holding further anniversary-themed events throughout the year. To top it all, the RAC accolade awarded for the quality of our servicing is a real achievement and one which our team should be proud of.”

Keith Motors of Christchurch is a family run Ford Dealership and has been running for 60 years. The company has been a Ford Dealer since 1980, and offers sales, parts, services, rapid fit and rental.

For further information on Keith Motors, go to www.keithmotors.com or call 01425 271371.

Talking about wildlife with

Back to the seas of our grandparents’ days Right now, a network of Marine Protected Areas is being developed around our shores, with protection from the most damaging activities such as gravel extraction and scallop dredging. Most types of fishing, commercial and recreational activity will still be allowed, but there will be some new marine reserves, called Reference Areas, which will be protected from ALL damaging activities, giving them a chance to return to the rich seas of our grandparents’ days.

These highly protected Reference Areas, small though they will be, are vital to the success of the network as a whole. They allow wildlife within them to return to a near-natural state, acting as benchmarks for understanding how human activities affect marine life, showing us what a healthy and undamaged sea is like – something we can hardly imagine at the moment. Older Dorset residents remember seeing schools of harbour porpoise from Dorset’s cliffs and catching large angel shark and common skate, both of which are now critically endangered.

We hope that by s et t i n g a s id e s om e areas of the sea purely for wildlife we will see a return to the marine environment our greatgrandparents enjoyed.

If we are to halt the centuries-long decline in our seas we need to establish Reference

TSL June 2011 page 16

Areas that are purely for the recovery of wildlife. They will undoubtedly affect some people who use the sea for their living or recreation and tough decisions will be needed. But if we do nothing, noone will benefit, least of all our local Dorset fishing communities. If we don’t act now there will be very little for our grand-children to enjoy.

To find out more about the campaign for M arine Protected Areas, incl udin g Reference Areas, both in Dorset and throughout the UK, visit our website www.wildlifetrusts.org and click on Living Seas. Look out for the Petition Fish campaign this summer at Dorset Wildlife Trust centres and events and sign a scale to show your support for marine wildlife.

It’s now or never for the future of our seas!

New products to launch at Broadview showroom in Westbourne this June Broadview is set to host an open week at its Westbourne showroom from Saturday 18 to Saturday 25 June to highlight the latest trends in window dressing and outdoor alfresco areas for the summer season.

Based on Seamoor Road (opposite M&S), the Broadview team will open the doors from 10am to 4pm and the event will give customers the chance to meet the team, gain advice about the best ways to dress a window and how to create a distinctive outdoor ‘alfresco’ area, as well as enjoy drinks and canapés.

The Broadview showroom brings together Broadview’s comprehensive range of blinds, curtains and soft furnishings, shutters, conservatory blinds, patio awnings and canopies. Visitors will have the opportunity to find out about the latest products including shaped and automatic interior shutters, which can be custom-designed to fit any shape of window frame around the home including arched, circular, triangular and hexagonal, and a prestige collection of blinds - The Rectory Collection.

Broadview will be offering a 20% discount on the majority of products purchased throughout the week and customers will also have the opportunity to enter a free prize draw to win £250 Broadview vouchers.

The open week will also provide the ideal opportunity for visitors to find out about the latest addition to our awning range.

Outdoor living spaces are a growing home trend. No longer relegated to a few folding chairs, gardens are being designed with the principle that an outdoor living area is just as important as an indoor living room. The ability to flow seamlessly from indoor to outdoor living, with a space extend ed by a h igh -quality Broadview awning, can enhance the value of a home.”

Dames, Doctors and Dignitaries Dance About Face at Somerley Ball 400 supporters of locally based head & neck cancer support charity, About Face, danced the night away in a huge marquee at Old Somerley in a sell-out ABOUT FACE BALL on Saturday evening (May 21st). £51,750 was raised for the charity.

Dancing to the sound of Lady Marmalade Live, guests mixed it with football legend, Laurie McMenemy, the chief designer for Jaguar Cars (the man responsible for the XF and XJ ranges), Ian Callum, and the Mayor & Mayoress of Poole, Cllr & Mrs Graham Wilson.

Entertainer Mike Osman kept the mood light as he hosted the evening and mimicked the famous, whilst former and current patients who have been helped by the cancer support charity shared their experiences with the audience. They were able to stress how the charity tries to counter the isolation people feel when diagnosed with this type of cancer.

A high value raffle, where prizes included a week’s stay in a French Gite, raised £9,000.

However, the evening’s fundraising high point was a dazzling auction offering, among a range of glittering prizes, the opportunity to secure a fine diamond encrusted bracelet and even the right to be the first person in the UK to own the recently launched Range Rover Evoque – with the profit on the deal going to the charity.

Leading the Ball organising team was Regina Ilankovan, a dentist and the wife of charity founding Trustee, Ilanko Ilankovan, a consultant surgeon. One of the prime movers on the voluntary team was Paul Collins, Dealer Principal of Westover Jaguar in Poole.

During several short speeches, Dame Margaret Seward, the former Chief Dental Office for the United Kingdom, remarked on the small charity’s leadership in offering, on the one hand, personal support from former patients who can ‘tell it like it is’ and, on the other, its

TSL June 2011 page 20

work by consultant surgeons such as Messrs Ramchandani, Walji and Ilankovan – all working at Poole Hospital – in passing on their skills voluntarily training future head & neck cancer surgeons in the charity’s special practical suite and library in the About Face Centre at Longfleet Road, Poole.

About Face Chairman, Dr Anthony Pigott (note spelling) was effusive in his praise of the organising team: “We’ve had a wonderful night that has, by the generosity of the sponsors and guests, enabled About Face to continue its work in Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch and across the South”. He said “If you or a loved one has been affected by facial cancer we do everything we can to help”. The About Face Centre number is 01202 677340 and the website can be found at www.about-face.info.

Former head & neck cancer patient, Laura Lamble, centre, with mum Deborah and dad Dyrck Lamble at the About Face Ball. Laura is one of the youngest patients to be helped by the charity.

Get fit while the kids have fun From 4th June you can get fit while the kids have fun at Moors Valley Country Park and Forest near Ringwood.

That’s when the Park’s new Saturday morning Green Active Club is opening for families, offering a fantastic selection of fun activities that everyone can enjoy in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Spaces on some activities will be limited so if you are looking for a fun way to get the whole family fit and energised this summer booking is recommended. For more information speak to a Ranger on 01425 470721, send an email activate1000@eastdorset.gov.uk or go to www.moors-valley.co.uk.

Adult activities include Nordic Walking, BikeFit and Tai Chi, whilst children can go adventure cycling, play golf or take part in a great ‘Get Active Outdoors’ programme.

Alternatively, families can get fit together with pitch and putt, fishing or on a family bike ride.

“It can be hard to find time to keep fit and healthy when you are raising a family,” said Healthy Lifestyle Ranger, Karl Prince.

“Our new Green Active Club has been designed to help solve the problem. We have organised a full programme of events so that the kids can have fun while mum and dad get some personal time and benefit from the expertise of our qualified instructors. Better still, we are keeping the costs right down, with Ranger-led children’s activities costing just £2.50 when parents are participating in the programme”.

Adult and family activities start at 10am, but the children’s sessions start five minutes earlier to ensure everyone can enjoy a full hour of active fun. All adult sessions cost £4, children’s activities with participating adults cost £2.50 (£6 if parent is not on an activity) and child places on family activities cost just £2.

Parking at the Moors Valley is free for the first three sessions.

June’s Gardening T ips From Paul Chatfield of Chatfield’s Garden & Property Services Trees and Shrubs

Fruit

Several of the shrubs that bloom on wood made during the previous year may be pruned as soon as flowers fade.

Inspect apple and pear trees and remove anything that looks bad, the same with strawberries, also making sure there is a good straw mat for fruit.

Climbers and Wall-Plants The half hardy annual climbers that have been raised under glass or protected can now be planted on a south facing wall or fence, well supported.

Roses

Vegetables Several of the less hardy plants can be p lan ted ou t n o w eg. a u b ergin e s, cucumbers, marrows, peppers, tomatoes and sweet corn.

All varieties of garden roses will be coming into bloom this month, fading flowers should be regularly removed to encourage the production of new ones.

Greenhouse and Frame

Borders and Beds

House Plants

As soon as blooms fade on early herbaceous perennials it is best to cut off the dead flower stems. Plant out halfhardy annuals raised under glass as soon as possible.

Leaves of foliage plants will benefit a light fine rain outside for no more than two hours. Watch out for aphids and other pests deal with them without delay.

Bulbs and Corms Remain in g b u lb s from th e sp rin g flowering should be lifted now. Dahlia tubers not yet planted should be put out now and well supported.

On summer days the temperature can rise very rapidly and to keep cool, water floors and benches twice daily.

Chatfield’s Garden & Property Services North 2, Sway Storage & Workshops Barrows Lane, Sway, Lymington Hants, SO41 6DD Tel: 01590 682828 Mobile: 07821 610923

Rock Gardens and pools Cut back old flower stems and other trailing plants to keep them trim and avoid them seeding. Continue with weeding and remove algae, weekly.

Lawns With our dry spells raise the mower blades to make the cut less close, remove the grass box for the time being. Isolated weeds can be treated again.

TV Vet Offers Free Health Scans to Dogs at The New Forest Show TV Vet, Joe Inglis, is taking his campaign for healthier pets on the road this summer, and will be at the New Forest and Hampshire County Show with his Vet’s Kitchen Health Scan Roadshow.

From his new purpose-built trailer, complete with TV screen showing pet health advice videos, Joe and his team will be offering canine visitors a Vet’s Kitchen Health Scan plus advice on issues such as weight control, joint mobility, digestive and skin problems to their owners.

Joe said: “Using the latest ultrasound scanning technology, the Vet’s Kitchen Health Scan will give dog owners a unique and accurate insight into their own pet’s state of health and body condition.

Because we anticipate assessing over 1,000 dogs during our four month tour at some of England’s top county shows, we believe the results will provide a longer-term scientific assessment of the health and wellbeing of our canine companions in the UK.”

New Park, Brockenhurst on Tuesday 26th, Wednesday 27th and Thursday 28th July. 20% discounted tickets are available now on the Show’s ticket hotline on 01590 622409 or via the web site on www.newforestshow.co.uk until July 11th.

The New Forest & Hampshire County Show helps raise funds to support the New Forest Agricultural Show Society and other local and national charitable organisations. The New Forest Agricultural Show Society is a private company limited by guarantee. Company Number 2646090. Charity Number 1004255.

WAGGY TAILS RESCUE, is a registered charity based in Ferndown. They rescue and re-home dogs that have been abandoned, neglected or otherwise in need of a good home.

June Jewel Daisy is a Mastiff cross who is about seven years old. She is a very sweet dog that we rescued from the pound on Christmas Eve. She is full of character and loves to be loved. She has been waiting for the right home since Christmas!

NEW VENUE FOR THE FUN DOG SHOW In the past the annual dog show has been held in Kinson, but due to the closure of the park’s toilets, an alternative venue had to be found. So this year it will be held at the West Parley Memorial Hall and Field, Christchurch Road, West Parley BH22 8SQ. The date will be Saturday June 18th and doors open at 12.30pm but no need to register for classes ahead of time this year. All the usual fun and frolics including a parade of all the re homed dogs of the past (If you have a WT dog, please bring it along) also all the dogs needing homes will be there too. Fabulous food, children’s’ games, super prizes, so what more could you want? Free entry but limited parking so share transport if you can.

For more information call the office on 01202 875000!

Tom recovers from broken legs to cycle for the Air Ambulance A year after learning to walk again following a serious skiing accident, Tom Cadbury is taking part in one of the Westcountry’s most challenging cycle races to raise funds for the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance (DSAA).

Tom, aged 32, lives in Lilliput, Poole, and is a physiotherapist at Broadstone Physiotherapy and Poole Hospital.

He broke both his legs in January of last year while skiing in Switzerland, and it was several months before he was able to walk again.

Tom’s rehabilitation included three months in a wheelchair and four weeks on crutches before he began cycling to rebuild his strength.

Now, Tom and three friends have entered as a team in the Tour of Wessex Cyclosportive, a 329-mile race over three days through Somerset, Dorset, and Wiltshire.

Tom, who has been training by cycling an average 150 to 200 miles a week, will be raising sponsorship for the DSAA. He said: “My accident made me realise how quickly life can change.

“You can be fit and healthy one minute, and the next you are lying in a hospital bed, wondering if you will ever walk again, or whether your legs will heal correctly.

“The Air Ambulance is a crucial Charity which can make a difference to not only saving somebody’s life, but also helping them recover quickly.”

The Tour of Wessex Cyclosportive is being held on May 28, 29, and 30, and just three weeks later the DSAA is holding its own cycling event, a Coast 2 Coast (C2C) fund-raising ride.

C2C, which is part of National Bike Week, will take place on Sunday, June 19, starting in the Somerset port of Watchet, and finishing on the Dorset coast in West Bay, near Bridport.

TSL June 2011 page 44

Entry forms can be downloaded from the DSAA website at www.dsairambulance.org.uk or are available by an email to c2c@dsairambulance.org.uk or calling 01823 669604.

DSAA communications manager Tracy Bartram said: “We can only keep our helicopter flying thanks to the support of people like Tom because we do not receive any direct Government or National Lottery funding.

“It costs us £3,800 a day to operate the Air Ambulance and all of that money has to come from public donations and fund-raising like Tom’s cycling sponsorship.”

More information about the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance can be found by visiting www.dsairambulance.org.uk or by emailing info@dsairambulance.org.uk or calling 01823 669604.
