He forms an unlikely friendship with an adventurous girl named Tip who is on a quest of her own.

The latest news storys in your area.

SWAP LIFE’S LUXURIES FOR BARE BASICS IN AID OF DIVERSE ABILITIES Dorset disability charity, Diverse Abilities Plus, is giving 24 men and women the chance to take part in its fiveday survival challenge from Saturday 19 – Wednesday 23 September 2015 for its fourth annual Castaway Challenge.

Diverse Abilities provide full support to every participant who signs up to the event, to help them achieve their fundraising target.

Through a series of comic adventures with Tip, Oh comes to understand that being different and making mistakes is all part of being human, and together they discover the true meaning of the word HOME. The film features an A-list voice line-up of stars including Rihanna, Jim Parsons, Jennifer Lopez and Steve Martin. To celebrate the partnership Hamptons International is offering the chance for clients to win the ultimate electrical bundle which includes; 1 x Samsung smart 3D 48” LED TV; 1 x Samsung sound bar; 1 x Samsung smart 3D Blu-ray player with Freeview+ HD recorder and 1 TB hard drive; 1 x Xbox One; 5 x Xbox One games of winner’s choice; 1 x Canon DSLR camera; 2 x Canon DSLR camera lenses; 1 x Bose portable

The winner will be announced at the end of May. Paul Fisher Manager at Canford Cliffs Hamptons International comments: “We’re thrilled to be bringing a bit of Hollywood to Hamptons International with this exciting partnership.

THE NEW PUG, NOT THE SMALL YAPPY TYPE BUT THE EXCITING WORLD OF POST URBAN GLAMOUR Bright, colourful and fun – high frequency words that you’ll hear in the vicinity of Lhoutte’s work at Westover Gallery. Lhouette’s unique style is packing a punch into the commercial art world gaining him collectors from all walks of life including starry celebs. “My practice originates from self-taught graphic design & stencilling techniques, I began creating art with old mechanic aerosol paints that were given to me, scrap sheets of salvaged wooden board… the work was beautifully raw! Things have developed since then and I’ve adopted a more lavish refined approach to creating my work whilst trying to retain that rawness.”

Bright colours and nostalgic characters draw you in to his pieces where you notice subtleties that hint at hidden messages. Lhouette’s sell out debut solo exhibition won him a nomination for the Fine Art Trade Guild’s ‘Best Up and Coming Artist’ award in 2014. “Glamour and beauty is of great interest to me. I spend much time flicking through magazines, sourcing imagery, creating juxtaposing collages that satisfy me visually; if I had to label my style it would be called ‘POST URBAN GLAMOUR”.

INVESTMENT NEWS

PROPERTY IS ONE INVESTMENT OPTION – HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THE OTHERS? Our Investment and Pension specialist, Martyn Charlwood talks us through some investment & pension ‘spring cleaning’ tips. The arrival of spring brings the promise of warmer, longer days and the inclination to tackle much needed jobs around the home. Why not take the same opportunity to spruce up your investments and pensions? •

•

Dust off your pensions for 2015 – April will herald the biggest pension shakeup for a generation on how pension income can be taken. To ensure you are in the best possible position to take advantage of the new rules it’s important to give your pension the ‘once over’. There is a common misconception that come 6th April the new freedom and choice options will automatically apply. Many pensions will not permit this new flexibility and therefore now is the time to consider the alternatives. Clear out – Most homes contain items which are broken or which don’t work as well as they did and your investment or pension arrangements may be no different! Consider changing the poor performing funds in your portfolio to liberate monies for investment elsewhere where growth and income potential can be substantially improved.

TOP TIPS FOR SAVVY INVESTORS • Always seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser • Select an Adviser experienced and qualified to maximise returns and add value, not just a cost

Make the most of what you’ve got – Improve the tax efficiency of your finances. Take advantage of tax breaks offered by ISAs and pensions – depending upon your circumstances tax relief on pensions can be obtained up to an effective rate of almost 70%. Use the allowances on offer relating to Capital Gains and Inheritance Tax planning.

Are your investments and pensions working for you?... Allow us to propose an alternative •

Don’t end up counting the cost – A little bit of research can reap rewards! It’s well worth checking how much you are paying for your investments and pensions in terms of charges applied by the investment providers as well as those levied by your adviser. New rules

which became effective at the start of 2013 overhauled the charging system so you will want to ensure you are actually receiving value for money. •

Prepare against adverse weather – Investment markets can be equally unpredictable but being prepared can help combat the storms. Consider how well your portfolio is positioned to deal with changes in the financial climate.

•

Seek professional help – Some improvements require specialist attention. If your DIY skills don’t stretch to the above, seek assistance from an Independent Financial Adviser who can appraise your arrangements and objectives to ensure your money is working to its optimum!

Just as spring cleaning can revive your home and your sense of wellbeing, similarly, ‘dusting off’ your investment and pension portfolios to incorporate pro-active investment management, effective tax planning and competitive charging can breathe new life into your arrangements and allow you to look forward with renewed optimism to the year ahead.

ABOUT MARTYN CHARLWOOD Martyn is the managing director of Charlwood IFA, one of the region’s most respected and astute Wealth Managers who look after those with investible assets of £250,000 plus.

James Tiller MARLA Lettings Manager & Client Accounts

Ellie Mattison Senior Lettings Specialist

Anna Corbridge-Atkins Lettings Negotiator

Expert local knowledge from the YOUhome Bournemouth lettings team are the Q. What best buy to let bargains in

Bournemouth?

James: Bournemouth is a thriving market for young professional couples with some unable to afford deposits to buy. We believe this demographic will underpin demand for some time to come. Good quality one or two bed properties in areas with easy access to the town centre such as Meyrick Park, Charminster, Westbourne and Boscombe are particularly attractive. Ellie: We see an ever increasing demand for housing in Bournemouth and Poole both to rent and to buy. Charlotte: There is also a strong student presence in Bournemouth, with two universities and a

host of language colleges. Accommodation for students is changing and moving away from the traditional large houses, many students now prefer to be in smaller properties. With a large market students will be looking for the best accommodation possible and within their affordability.

often should Q. How my property be inspected? Roxanne: As part of our fully managed service we carry out quarterly inspections at our properties. This timeframe offers a good balance so as not to disturb your tenants quiet enjoyment but also to ensure there arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t any maintenance issues that might go unnoticed. It also helps maintain a good dialogue with your tenant so they feel happy and comfortable at your property.

can I Q. How achieve the best possible rent? Ellie: Focus on what makes your property stand out, good decor and high quality photos will certainly help. Ensure your property is presentable, tenants make swift decisions. First impressions really count and you only get one chance to make one. Anna: When tenants are able to pick and choose, the most successful properties that are being let are those offered newly or very recently refurbished. Roxanne: When rents achieved have dropped or remained static it is all too easy to justify holding off on improvements and maintenance with a mind to upgrading a property once market conditions have improved. This however is a self-defeating cycle. When tenant expectations are high, it is vital to ensure the general condition of a property is kept up together. James: The two most important areas to tenants are the kitchen and bathroom(s), where possible try to maintain these areas to a

good standard as this will give you a competitive edge.

can I reduce Q. How void periods? James: The best way is to be knowledgeable about the local rental market, allowing you competitively to price your property according to market conditions. Choosing the right agent is paramount, choose someone who is local to the area and experienced with renting your type of property. Timing is also very important; if a tenant does not want to renew their tenancy, we start advertising the property at least two months before the agreement ends to ensure we avoid void periods. Ellie: Finally be realistic, overpricing can lead to longer void periods. If a tenant is trying to negotiate our recommended approach is be firm but fair, think of the bigger picture.

SAVE & EARN

If you were making more out of your money what would you spend it on? Many people have not considered renewable energy as a viable alternative to current fuel types, but those who have taken the plunge are seeing large reductions in their energy costs whilst receiving substantial income from the government. The upshot is a fantastic investment, with returns generally far outweighing other investments such as banks, building societies and ISAs. Air source heat pumps (ASHP’s) are a boiler replacement that works on the principle of reverse refrigeration, producing heat instead of cold. ASHP’s are very efficient producing 3 times the output for the energy consumed: they are used commercially and have been around us for decades. Most supermarkets, offices, hotels and petrol stations etc…have their heating and hot water provided by ASHP’s. We have all become used to just ‘paying the energy bill when it arrives’, probably by DD or STO; not really understanding how much of the cost relates to which appliance – do you know the cost of your lighting or refrigeration? People who have renewable energy have taken the step of making an investment to reduce fuel bills now and in the future, and with government incentives, are well on the way to having their money back - rather than just having a cost for fuel. 48

Those with renewable energy say they are getting their investment back from the savings on their bills and the Government incentives they receive, in many cases returning 10% or more on their investment! DHS renewables is a local company delivering ASHP’s nationwide, we have years of experience in renewables, having previously specialised in solar electricity and hot water. We can provide a free consultation to establish the suitability of an ASHP for your home. The Government is committed to renewables providing incentives in the form of Feed In Tariff (FIT) for electricity generation and Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) for renewable heating. It is intended that all new builds will be fitted with a renewable heating source from 2016 - NEXT YEAR! There will be no new oil or LPG installations from 2020 and all homes are to be electric-only by 2030. Will there be sustainable fossil fuel supplies in 15 years? Our energy has been in the hands of the big six energy companies since 1998, with costs spiraling out of control. These companies are making massive profits for fat cat directors and shareholders, and with most of them being owned by foreign investors we are seeing our hard-earned money flowing straight out of the country.

DHS Renewables’ customers have seen their fuel buying in a different light. Everyone is committed to buying fuel for their homes; it’s just a choice of how we do it. We can effectively rent our fuel by continuing to buy fossil fuels or we can invest in renewables to dramatically reduce our bills, whilst receiving government money to help us return our investment in full…in other words get our money back! Have you stopped to consider when you will get your money back if you carry on buying energy as you are?

ADVICE FROM THE EXPERT From your renewable energy expert, Ian

In 2008 the government introduced the energy act in response to the Kyoto agreement and EU targets to reduce carbon emissions small scale. In April 2010 the government launched the FIT (Feed In Tariff) scheme to encourage small scale low carbon energy. Solar panels, hydro, wind and even methane burning from cows can generate electricity and FIT. In April 2014 the government finally launched the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive, 3 years late) to encourage small scale renewable heat. Heat pumps, Biomass, and solar generating hot water qualify for incentives. So in short the government are incentivising/paying us to install future technologies to kick start the inevitable switch to Renewables. Our national generating industry has also changed. We are shutting old coal & oil fired stations and installing wind, with planned nuclear and even a new tidal system in Pembrokeshire. Our National Grid is struggling to accept the new infrastructure and will also require massive investment to affect change. The end result will be providing our hot water from Renewables and our houses will all be electric (by 2030 predictions say). If this is our future and we can be paid to adopt new technologies that eventually we will all have, why not invest now and not only make huge savings from your heating and hot water bill, but also receive £100’s and £1000’s worth of government payments. The net result is vastly more cash return than we could hope to achieve in any regular investment. Find out more about government schemes and earn or procrastinate and miss out.

TALKING BUSINESS

TALKING BUSINESS House talks business with Emma & Steeve of Northfield Property Solutions Ltd, Emma Jane Interiors and The Betsy Group

Northfield Property Solutions / Emma Jane Interiors / Betsy Group (UK) Ltd I have recently had the pleasure of meeting a great enthusiastic couple with devotion and drive in all the businesses they run. Emma and Steeve have successfully built their own empire comprising of not one, not two, but three businesses. Northfield Property Solutions Ltd, Emma Jane Interiors and Betsy Group (UK) Ltd. This duo, met on a blind date arranged by a mutual friend and the rest as they say ‘is history’. 3 years down the line they tied the knot in St Albans Abbey and after moving to Hampshire in 2002 they are now very settled with their 2 beautiful daughters and amazing home.

Emma Setting up ‘Emma Jane Interiors’ Emma’s interior Design company, which is an extension of Emma’s’ interest in art and design. She has a reputation for making a space look beautiful and from seeing her work; she is certainly true to her reputation. In the process of finding her career path, Emma always loved making a room look special whether for friends or family. She details, “I loved being asked to help” and subsequently her friends were never disappointed, which made her feel positive about the future”. Now running a successful interior design service, Emma’s drive to succeed is infectious and she is unwittingly passionate about interiors. “One can only re-decorate there own house so-many times and to be able to offer my services to others that need that guidance for their own homes is a real privilege”. Beginning life as a graphic designer, her work has evolved from there with the couples home now acting as a showcase to clients. Beginning a new business is challenging, but one that Emma has always relished. “It’s a real sense of achievement to have your own business. To be independent and have a purpose in life”. When I raised the question as to what is the key to success of keeping a happy marriage and working partnership, Emma is honest in telling that “it has it moments” as you might expect, but with time and the employment of staff, pressures have been relieved. With the business in safe hands, they can enjoy spending quality time with their 2 young children away from everyday life. Having worked with Steeve from the beginning of his building career, firstly by helping with clerical work, then designing builds

and refurbishments as they evolved, Emma says, “Unbelievably, our relationship is actually quite amazing”.

Steeve Steeve began his career in 1989 as a Sergeant in the French Army and completed his National Service. ‘The Frenchman’ born and raised in Dijon, France until the ripe age of ten, suddenly he found himself on the move to the UK so his parents’ could be closer to their parents. Now as a UK citizen and settled in London Steeve was employed as manager of a wellknown furniture shop before eventually building his own business. For those looking to begin their own ventures, Steeve believes that dedication and commitment to hard work is vital, but one must not forget the stress that runs along-side that. “Having my own business gives me freedom, excitement and best of all provides control of my own destiny”. As partners in crime Steeve deems the pair as great co-workers due to the ability to understand one another. Emma knowledge of the building industry is vast and thus allows for the couple to confer about projects, problems and dilemmas that arise. Having said that, Steeve makes note “I can’t say my knowledge of interior design is the same, I leave that to Emma, but she knows I’m here to talk through any issues that she may encounter”. As a married couple Steeve agrees working together can be a challenge, but when those moments arise, you work through them and it only makes their companionship stronger. With a fear of failure and devotion to succeed, Steeve has caught the entrepreneurial ‘bug’ and is already plotting further business expansions. He tells “We’ve just invented the Betsy Paint Mate and my head is already ticking away with the next invention and product range for the Betsy Group”. He continues; our eldest daughter is desperate to jump aboard the family business”, they are hoping that she can bring some fresh ideas to the companies when the time is right. Northfield’s and the team of skilled workers are well known for getting the job done, on time and mainly on budget. Steeve said, “I can’t lie and say that that we always manage to come with-in budget, there are on the odd occasion unforeseen encounters, but we solve them and move on swiftly to get the job done”.

InsigniaBlinds THE BETTER BLIND COMPANY

Installing window blinds is one of the easiest and most effective ways to instantly change the appearance and practical use of a room in your home... However, why should you choose blinds over other options like curtains? Whether you want to install blinds for practical or aesthetic reasons, here are the key advantages of installing blinds in your home. 1. Control Light and Heat Entering a Room or Conservatory Window blinds provide you with more control over the amount of light entering the room because you can cover the entire window or just part of it according to your own needs. This could be ideal for a room where you have a home theatre or in your bedroom where you don’t want any light to wake you up in the morning.

5. Easy to Maintain One of the best things about window blinds is that they are very easy to maintain. Many blinds simply require a quick wipe with a damp cloth from time to time to remove the dust. Compared to curtains, which need to be washed every once in a while, and blinds start to look like the most convenient option. In addition, they are also long lasting, meaning you won’t have to replace them until you decide you are ready for a change.

6. Extend your home and seasons Finally Insignia Blinds offer a range of Patio and Sun awnings to both extend and protect your home during the warmer months. Sun awnings are a convenient way to extend the use of the patio or deck for leisure, as well as protecting furnishings and carpet from the harmful sun rays. 2.

Wide Variety of Materials The variety of materials that blinds come in allows you to choose the blind that is most suitable for you in terms of both price and style. For example, if your living room contains wooden furniture, you can complement it by installing wooden blinds or faux wood instead to keep the costs down. You then have plastic blinds, bamboo blinds, aluminium blinds, and other materials to choose from to ensure that you can always find the right blinds for any room in your home.

LONDON DAY DON’T MISS OUT

ASK THE EXPERT Matthew Fleming-Duffy Cherry Mortgage and Finance LTD Mortgage and Finance Broker

Help-to-Buy: The Facts Official Government figures up to 31st January 2015 show that more than 80,000 borrowers have purchased a home through Help-to-Buy since the first phase of the scheme was launched nearly two years ago. Rather interestingly, over half of the homes

01202 484748

bought through Help-to-Buy are new build properties and almost all completions have been outside London. In London the scheme makes up just 1.3% of all mortgage lending compared to an

DON’T MISS THE BUS!

average of 3% across the country. So how do you apply?

WE’RE TAKING ALL OUR PRODUCTS TO LONDON

repaid at any time or when the home is sold, with you, the borrower,

First let me explain the different schemes available as there does seem to be some confusion relating to the primary options potentially available to you, namely the Equity Loan and the Mortgage Guarantee. Through the Help-to-Buy equity loan, the Government provides an equity loan worth up to 20% of the value of a qualifying new build home, interest free for the first 5 years, which can be putting up a 5% deposit. As part of the mortgage guarantee scheme, the Government offers a guarantee to the bank or building society of up to 15% of the purchase price of a property bought from the open market, with you putting down a deposit of between 5%, allowing you

IT’S GOOD TO HAVE FRIENDS IN THE RIGHT PLACES. All properties listed with us by the 2nd April will be showcased at our London Day exhibition in our Mayfair office

to obtain a 95% mortgage. For both of these schemes, the property you are purchasing can be priced up to £600,000, you cannot let the property to somebody else and you must not own any other property anywhere in the world at the time you buy your home. Other schemes that now seem to fall under the banner of Helpto-Buy include Shared Ownership (where you buy a share of your home and pay rent on the remaining share), NewBuy (where you buy a qualifying new-build home with a purchase price of up to £500,000 with a deposit of only 5%) and Right to Buy (where you might be eligible to buy your home at a discounted price if you

are a council tenant with a least five years’ tenancy.) So, I hear you asking again; “These schemes sound great, how do I apply?” The answer to that question is slightly vague, as the equity loan is based on the builder offering qualifying developments and you don’t apply for the mortgage guarantee directly. If you are looking at a new-build property where the builder’s specification shows the Help-to-Buy logo, and you meet the eligibility criteria, you will be able to reserve the property (which would include Help-to-Buy paperwork) and then make a mortgage application to selected lenders that will offer products that tie-in with the equity loan scheme. By comparison, and in simplicity, the mortgage guarantee has enabled more lenders to offer 95% mortgages where you wish to buy a second-hand property from the open market. Have a question or need advice? Call me on 01202 651300 or email at matt@cherryfinance.co.uk or visit our website www.cherryfinance.co.uk.

TALKING BUSINESS

TALKING BUSINESS House talks business with Aimee Ramage from Burns Estates

Aimee Ramage Burns Estates Burns Lettings began in 1971, predominantly dealing with sales both commercial and residential. Lettings and Block Management began soon afterwards and both continue to enjoy massive success. Branch Manager Aimee Ramage who is a delight to meet tells me when she accepted the job offer at Burns it was like “coming home”. The Directors at Burns have a multitude of expertise and experience in a variety of areas of property. Supportive of Aimee they allow her to run the business like it is her own. “They trust my judgment which means the world to me, and we share the same vision for the business”. When I asked Aimee how her previous experience has aided her position at Burns she tells me her previous managing director gave her one piece of advice that she lives and breathes “he’d rather have 50 quality properties than 100 awful ones”. Aimee abides by this rule of thumb in every business since, focusing on offering quality properties and excellent service. Burns continues to succeed offering unrivalled services to their happy clients. This is fantastic news and takes me by no surprise when Aimee states, “I’m immensely proud of my achievements and my team’s” Burns main aim has always been to provide clients with the service they deserve. Aimee is frequently asked what is Burns unique selling point (usp), a question that some business tend to find tricky to answer, but not Aimee. It was great to hear her response “our usp is me, my amazing team and how we operate on a day to day basis”. You are only as good as the weakest member of your team and Aimee and her team are tight. Although it is cliché, the Burns team is like a family. Aimee looks after her staff and in return they give everything they’ve got to make Burns as successful as it possibly can be. Things are kept simple at Burns; they keep their promises and look after their clients, listening to the needs and responses accordingly. Aimee trusts her team to deliver an impeccable services at all times, telling me “there is no ‘I’ in team”, and quite right. Since the Burns team is integral to the business I had to discuss how Aimee approaches the recruitment process. CV’s are important, it’s all about the attention to detail, but ultimately at Burns it’s about meeting people. Candidates can look fantastic on paper, but you need to make sure they’re just as great in real life. Personalities need to blend and you always need a good mix of people

128

to compliment each other. Burns always meet with potential employees on several occasions, and ensure they have the opportunity to come into an office environment and meet their co-workers. As Aimee says “after all we spend more time at work than we do with our families, so everyone needs to be able to work alongside each other”. In regards to difficulties of the business it is no surprise that it boils down to property stock in Bournemouth. There is an abundance of agents spread across this famous seaside town all offering competitive rates and seemingly attractive services. For landlords this can make differentiation between agents difficult, a part of the job that I would have thought to be nuisance, but Aimee loves this. She is

When you want something you work hard to achieve it. I want everyday to be better than yesterday.

With so many of the people Aimee meets including myself not being born and bred here, this is a testament to the popularity in the area with numerous clients relocating to Dorset each year. Whether they love living by the sea or being in such close proximity to the New Forest they can’t get enough of Dorset. There is such an amazing variety of property in Dorset that no two days are ever the same for the Burns team. Although very happy and successful in Dorset would Burns ever branch out of its home county? Well Burns already work in Hampshire and will continue to do so. As Aimee says “we happily cover all areas from our base in Bournemouth, I absolutely love Dorset but I love Hampshire too”.

a go-getter who loves a challenge. There can be a stereotype attached to the job of an estate agent, the pin striped suit, the inability to listen to clients’ needs and charging extortionate amounts of money for doing very little. This is not Aimee or the Burns team. Vivacious, professional and attentive, Aimee tells me “when I visit client’s properties they are always extremely surprised that I am a normal person”. They say, “You don’t seem like a typical estate agent, and this is music to my ears”. Basing her services on what the client actually wants and needs, Burns clients enjoy the traditional approach of sitting back and letting Burns do the hard work, right from the marketing stage to sales chasing. Putting herself into the other person’s shoes Aimee tailors her services to suit her clients needs not her own. So why is Dorset such a great place to own a property?

With the economic recession I was keen to find out whether this had hindered Burns business. For the Burns team it is all about a positive mindset and making things happen. Money is an issue for everyone at this moment in time so Burns accommodate to this by tailoring their services to suit all walks of life. With properties ranging from studio flats to manor homes with stables everyone is different. It’s all about finding out what people want, need and then providing them with a service to match, both emotionally and financially. Burns has quietly enjoyed success since 1971, and when Aimee came on board the team, it was her job to shout about how great Burns is. A fantastic managed portfolio of properties with happy landlords who have remained loyal to Burns year after year, spreading the word to their family and friends is how Burns has

TALKING BUSINESS

Aimee Ramage

successfully seen their business grow. By focusing on providing the client with impeccable customer service and taking on quality property Burns has carved a name for itself. Proud to be serving clientele including major companies in Bournemouth and Pool, Burns will continue to evolve and accommodate to market trends and customer needs. Aimee is constantly coming up with new ideas, striving to improve performance, diversify and more importantly keep Burns clients happy. Rather than focusing solely on driving new customers in with amazing offers, Burns strive to keep their clients satisfied so that they don’t go elsewhere. Business retention is equally as important to Burns, as is securing new business. Of course growth of any business takes hard work and dedication, but the best form of marketing for Burns has always been and continues to be word of mouth. This is a joy for Aimee and the team who get so many recommendations from happy clients. As Aimee says “it’s wonderful that our clients are so loyal and they love what we do” Since acquiring a higher calibre of properties Burns launched their Estate Agency and Commercial division. Although Aimee loves all types of property she admits her passion is for those A rated properties. Over the past 12-18 months Burns has tailored their marketing to show how they’re constantly evolving, resulting in new relationships. In Aimee’s words “when you want something you work hard to achieve it. I want everyday to be better than yesterday”. With much more

The flame of Burns, setting the rest of the team alight is Manager Aimee Ramage. Extremely driven, Aimee is a perfectionist in all aspects of the business. To succeed in this business drive is integral as is determination and fantastic work ethic. Having taken on her first role in property as Lettings & Property Co-ordinator, Aimee’s colleague’s daughter was taken ill and so she took over her role additionally to her own. Although of course a sad situation, this provided Aimee with the best possible learning experience, telling me “I had to learn quickly and use my own initiative to manage 450 properties as well as all the admin which goes alongside it”. This made Aimee believe that she wanted more from her career, and since then has worked incredibly hard to achieve her goals and ambitions. Having worked within both corporates & independent companies, Aimee prefers the personal approach at an Independent Company. “Our clients are important to us, they’re not just a number. At corporates it’s all about the numbers – valuations, viewings & conversion rates. Within independent companies figures are of course important, money makes the world go round – but our clients and providing impeccable customer service are at the heart of everything we do”.

...our clients and providing impeccable customer service are at the heart of everything we do.

Known for drinking too much tea and coffee switching to decaf by the afternoon Aimee is an approachable happy person able to get along with anyone. Putting myself at ease immediately I can see why Aimee is so great at her job. Equally comfortable nattering over cups of tea with new clients and getting down to business in the board room with the chief executive directors Aimee is able to adapt without a flinch. Having uprooted her entire life to begin a new adventure in Bournemouth without a job, Aimee believes this is the best decision she ever made as it has landed her the job here at Burns.

For others who are looking to take on a similar role, Aimee reveals that you should be prepared for work to take over your life, in a good way! Looking after all aspects of the business from development, marketing, social media and a long list more Aimee “absolutely loves it”. The sheer variety of her role means continually moving the business into new and exciting areas. As her dad always used to say “you should learn something new every day”.

So what is the key to success and being happy? For Aimee it’s a good work life balance. Although she would not consider herself to be particularly great at achieving this, she is a bit of a workaholic, she does tell me she is getting there. After all she has soon to be 5 year old Bailey her doggy to care for. Plus Aimee tells, “I’d love an Andrex puppy – a Labrador. They’re so cute! Maybe one day when I’m living in Canford Cliffs in a big house!”

When I asked Aimee what trait in the staff room she is know for, it was singing to herself. She tells me “my staff know that if I’m happy I’m singing, and if I’m quiet then they know I’ve got a lot on and just bring me a nice cup of tea”. Getting off her chair to make things happen I would certainly place my own trust in Aimee. She tells me “I love being an Estate Agent”, and you’ve got to be good to love something.

DIARY OF A LETTING AGENT Sharon Canning Move on Rentals As I write this journal, I am very much aware the budget is this week and by the time you read this, the budget has happened! So, I thought I would write about some changes that will affect many landlords in their tax return as we also approach the end of our tax year on the 5th April 2015. Firstly if you are a new landlord and you are receiving rental income, you should tell HMRC about it – contact them as soon as possible, but at the latest by 5 October following the end of the tax year in which you start to let the property. That is, if you started getting rental income in the year to 5 April 2015, tell HMRC by 5 October 2015. A bit of bad news…until 2013, landlords with unfurnished properties could claim a ‘renewals basis’ allowance for ‘moveable items’ such as white goods. However, as of tax year 2014, HMRC have announced that the cost of white goods is no longer a tax deductible expense for unfurnished properties. This little known fact surprised a lot of people and the HMRC released a press announcement in May 2014 confirming the ‘renewals allowance’ was actually an ‘Extra Statutory Concession’ (ESC) by HMRC, and so did not have the force of law – in other words, it was an allowance that HMRC gave, but were not obliged to give and as part of an ongoing effort to ‘tidy up’ the tax system, the HMRC removed certain ESCs. So, what are the options? 1. Do nothing. This could prove costly. 2. Provide furnished properties and claim 10% wear and tear. However, properties in Bournemouth and Poole are predominantly unfurnished and this would narrow your market audience when looking for tenants. Also, be aware that furnished means furnished and the taxman will ask for a copy of the inventory! 3. Don’t provide white goods. Years ago this was the norm, however new builds provided a lot of built in kitchen goods and our latter years have seen this as more common. However, I have definitely seen a u turn over the last 2 years where landlords are gifting white goods to tenants with the proviso the landlord is not responsible for repairs or replacement. 4. Install built in white goods. If you are planning on renewing the kitchen this is an option. 5. Rent white goods. Rental of white goods would be revenue expenditure – not capital expenditure – and so the costs would be allowable. If you have a large portfolio, you could consider setting up a property company to buy the white goods and rent them to the personally held portfolio at a commercial rate. Of course, a genuine repair to keep an item in working or usable condition, will still be tax deductible. If you are letting out a furnished property, then there is no change and you still can claim the 10% wear and tear allowance. Carpets are also, in principle, affected by the HMRC ruling, as they do not accept that carpets are fixtures and these should be treated, instead, as free-standing appliances covered by the wear and tear allowance applicable to only furnished property. Let’s hope the budget brings some good news for the private rented sector!

Reformed Plastics offer a wide range of furniture to help you to make the most of your outdoor space. Due to the everincreasing importance to recycle & protect the environment, our products are made from 100% recycled plastic. All the plastic used is recycled in the UK and is a perfect alternative to wood. Our aim is to help rebuild the environment by utilising a commodity, which people would otherwise just throw away, and so turn what to some would be rubbish into a valuable product for everybody.

Non-slip decking Lasts for over 50 years Resistant to vandalism Resistant to salt water Resistant to chemicals Resistant to insects and bacteria

What Can The Plastic Be Used For ? The manufactured plastic has many practical and very useful properties. The main base of our products are in the form of planks and posts which can be used on their own for garden fences, both low for front gardens and high for side and back fences for instance, along road sides and around fields and paddocks just to name a few. It is also possible to produce a number of other products out of our plastic, such as picnic tables. These would vary in size, suitable for adults and children. Park benches, outdoor tables, square or rectangular plant boxes, decking and seating... the list is endless.

Financial Benefits Achieving value for money is a key driver for any purchasing decision. Although some recycled products have greater up-front cost, their longevity and durability make them a more costeffective option over the long term.

ABOUT US The concept of Reformed Plastics was born 15 years ago from the curiosity of its founder. Being an engineer by profession, and having had his own UPVC Windows business, and also being the practical and inquisitive person that he is, one day he decided to find out what was really happening to the waste that people were so freely throwing away. His research and interest lead him to focus on plastics, how it can be recycled and what it could be reused for. He discovered that the USA & a few European countries had been recycling and remanufacturing waste plastics into alternative timber products for many years, instead of throwing it all into landfill! Over time, slowly but surely he developed a few basic products in the form of planks and posts and very soon he began to receive interest from people wanting to know more about this revolutionary product that is both an environmentally friendly alternative to normal timber and sustainable which means it will save them a lot of money in the long term! From then on, the rest as they say is history.

MOTORING

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring. By Nick Fletcher

DON’T EAT ON THE MOVE! Eating while driving doubles your risk of having a crash, according to breakdown and recovery experts GEM MOtoring Assist. And drivers caught snacking at the wheel can face fines and penalty points. GEM chief executive David Williams, said: “The Highway Code tells us that we must avoid distractions such as eating and drinking when we are driving. That’s because anything that takes our attention away from the driving task will increase our risk of collision. However, too many drivers don’t see it as a problem to unwrap a pasty, sip a scalding hot coffee or glug from a large juice carton on a journey. “Driving is a complex enough task already. So trying to do anything else at the same time just makes the journey riskier because we’re not fully focused on the driving task. If something then goes wrong, we’re likely to react more slowly because our attention is elsewhere – and when we do react, there’s the food item or beverage to deal with, too. “Good, experienced drivers accept that eating and drinking at the wheel are dangerous, so they won’t allow these distractions to compromise safety.”

NEW PORSCHE 911 GT3 RS Porsche says its new 911 GT3 RS “blurs the boundary between road-going sports cars and race cars.” Prices start at £131,296 and first cars arrive in showrooms in May. “It is equipped with the maximum degree of motorsport technology currently possible in a street-legal 911, yet retains supreme suitability for everyday driving,” the company says. Extensive modifications to the drive system, aerodynamics and lightweight design enhance performance beyond that of even the 911 GT3. The RS has set a lap time around the 14 mile Nürburgring of 7 minutes 20 seconds which trumps the historic record of the Carrera GT super sports car by nine seconds. The 911 GT3 RS is powered by a 4.0-litre sixcylinder engine with 500 hp, combined with a specially developed PDK transmission. The engine, which has the

largest displacement and most power of any naturallyaspirated power unit with direct fuel injection in the 911 family, accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 3.3 seconds. Combined fuel consumption is 22.2 mpg. Functions such as de-clutching by the ‘paddle neutral’ facility – which is comparable to depressing the clutch with a conventional manual gearbox – and speed limiting by the ‘Pit Speed’ centre console button have been customised for motorsport use. The chassis of the 911 GT3 RS has been tuned for maximum driving dynamics and precision. Rearaxle steering and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus with fully variable rear limited slip differential increase agility and dynamics, and the wider front and rear track widths enable even higher roll stability than in the 911 GT3.

JEEP SALES SOAR Jeep’s growing popularity in the UK continues as figures just revealed show registrations rose by 165 per cent in February compared with the same period last year. Jeep registered 196 new cars last month, compared with 74 in February 2014. It’s the 18th consecutive month of year-on-year sales growth. “We’ve been telling people that Jeep is back, and I’m delighted that these latest figures once again confirm our claims,” says Damien Dally, head of brand, Jeep UK. “We are more than holding our own against some tough competition and we are determined to continue doing that. The addition of the fantastic new Renegade to the Jeep line-up can only help us to achieve our goal of a really successful year in 2015.” Available in two- and four-wheel-drive, and with a range of powerful and economical petrol and diesel engines, the new Jeep Renegade comes in four trim levels, including the Trailhawk version. Prices start from £16,995.

NEW PEUGEOT PARTNER TEPEE A new range of re-styled Peugeot Partner Tepee models is now available, with additional colours and trim options and a choice of seven engines for the versatile leisure vehicle. Prices start at £13,285. Standard on trim level three and available as an option on trim level two, a touch screen system giving easy access to the vehicle’s various systems: trip computer, AM/FM radio or digital DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting), Jukebox music files (integral hard disk) or portable devices, hands-free telephone and navigation. Navigation includes the display of speed limits and traffic information with mapping for Europe.

A speed limiter and cruise control, as well as air conditioning are now available from trim level two. The Outdoor version offers three separate and removable seats in row two and lateral airbags in row one. Seven VTi petrol and BlueHDi Diesel engines are available at launch, delivering 75 to 120hp. Available in 5 or 7 separate seat versions, with 3 removable seats in row 2, as well as 2 more removable seats in row 3 in the case of the 7-seat version, the Partner Tepee presents a flat floor and a load volume of between 675 and 3000 litres.

THE FUTURE, BUILT ON THE PAST. THE NEW GIULIETTA Everything has changed. And nothing. Despite world leading innovations rendering the 2015 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint almost unrecognizable to the engineers and designers of the 1954 original, one thing remains. The spirit that lives in every Alfa Romeo. Unchanging. Unmistakable. Unmatched. Now available with 0% APR Representative and from only £239 per month*.

Winners of the UK Aesthetics Small Clinic Award 2013-2014

Do: 1. Make sure you have your trial at least three weeks before your wedding. If you plan on using fake tan for the big day, have a test run before your make-up trial so that your artist can see what colour your skin becomes with the tan. 2. Wear a white t-shirt when you’re having your make-up trial so that you can see how the make-up looks against a pale colour and take a picture of yourself in day light (with no flash) to see how it looks. 3. Bring references to your make-up trial. Start looking for images of make-up that you really like and bring them with you on the day. Try to identify what it is you like about the make-up in the image and take into account that if you have the skin colour of Dita Von Teese then the make-up of Kim Kardashian won’t necessarily translate well onto you. 4. Remember that bridal make-up needs to have enough colour to compensate for the whiteness of the dress. There’s a big difference between everyday clothes and a wedding dress, so there should be difference in your make-up, too. 5. Book in for Eyelash Extensions well in advance and try them out first – they’re a brilliant way to make your eyes stand out and look far more subtle than a full strip. Go for differing lengths to create a really natural fluttery look. Don’t: 1. Let a make-up artist hijack your look. For a lot of people, their wedding is a time when they can really take pleasure in having someone else do their make-up. We think that the best bridal make-up is simply the most exquisitely polished version of how the bride usually looks. 2. Trowel it on. It’s a total myth that your make-up has to be plastered on for the photographs. 3. Just apply make-up to your face. Instead, extend down your neck and over your shoulders if necessary, this will ensure you face is not a different colour or even texture to your body. Everything should look uniform to create the most natural look possible.

HEALTH & BEAUTY The latest beauty tips and treatments from the owner of Chic Beauty Salon & Academy

ASK THE EXPERT!

With such a wealth and variety of Beauty Treatments and products on the market these days it can often be a confusing minefield choosing the right one for you – after all they all offer to perform miracles – and that’s what we want right – miracles?! Let’s get back to reality. This year I’m celebrating 18 years as a Beauty Therapist and Skin Care Specialist - a career which has taken me around the world – and I have to say when it comes to skin conditions and concerns – you name it I’ve seen it! If you were a fly on the wall in my treatment room you would hear me often use the phrases ‘realistic expectations’ and ‘results driven treatments’ and that’s exactly what your personalised beauty regime should be

about. The results you get in the treatment room should be easily managed and maintained and most importantly be affordable for you to keep up at home. Here’s some of my most frequently asked Beauty questions plus my must have recommendations….. Wrinkles and Fine Lines ‘I want to be wrinkle free but don’t want to go down the Botox route – what can you recommend?’ If you want to avoid the needle then there are some simple steps to take! Firstly back to basics – drinking water – you will be amazed at the transformation in your skin but drinking 1-2 litres of water a dayinstantly fine dehydration lines will become plumped and supple. As an in-salon treatment I would highly recommend a course of Non- Surgical Facelifts £40 or Oxygen Therapy £38 – or even better both combined! The non- surgical treatment offers noticeable results in 4 treatments - a course of 8-12 will ensure results are maintained. Oxygen therapy is the ultimate plumping and hydrating treatment. Both pain free, chemical free and super relaxing – perfect!

will prevent this giving your skin a fresh dewy look plus make up will glide on and look fresh all day! I recommend Dermalogica’s Daily Microfoliant RRP £41.75 74g for the ultimate smooth complexion. Teen Skin ‘My teen age daughter is getting a few break outs on her skin which is making her feel really self- conscious – she has started using some really astringent skin clearing wipes on a daily basis which just seem to be drying her skin out – what can I do to help her?’ The first thing I would recommend would be for your daughter to have a basic skin cleansing Facial to educate her on how to look after her skin at home! The next important thing is for her to use a good Skin Care product on her skin at home – after all this is what she will be using on her skin on a daily basis. My recommendation is Dermalogica’s Clear Start Range - an affordable range of skin care products ideal for a teen skin. Breakout Clearing Foaming Wash £13.10 177ml. All mentioned techniques available at Chic.

and

products

Exfoliation ‘I feel my skin looks dull - I wear make - everyday but it just doesn’t feel bright and alive anymore?’ So many clients claim to have a thorough at home skin routine but when you mention exfoliation it’s brushed aside! Our skin is alive and constantly shedding off old skin cells as new ones push their way up to the surface. By adding emollients to the skin such as make up and moisturisers we can often cause this top dead layer to maintain on the skin creating a dull sallow look to our complexion. Regular exfoliation

ALL OF OUR FITTER THAN FIT CLASSES ARE DESIGNED WITH THE SAME GOALS IN MIND TO IMPROVE FITNESS BY STRENGTHENING HEART & LUNGS TO TONE & STRENGTHEN MUSCLES TO BURN CALORIES & FAT

WE CAN HELP YOU GET THAT SUMMER BODY... BUT DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT I wanted to get down a couple of sizes before my holiday and I had seen my friend loose almost 2 stone after going to Fitter Than Fit so I decided to give it a go. The first class was free so I had nothing to loose except some excess fat!

As someone who has always struggled to motivate myself to go to the gym I’ve always been on the look out for a better solution. I stumbled across Fitter Than Fit by accident and thought I’d give it a go. Fun, friendly and most importantly, no egos.

What I loved about the classes was everyone was so friendly, Charlie and Mike who take the classes were very supportive and made it fun by throwing in some Thai Boxing exercises that have not only toned my legs and bum but also taught me some helpful self defence techniques, I couldn’t be happier with the result which took about 7 weeks!

You really do only get out what you’re prepared to put in, but to have people there to motivate you towards your goal makes all the difference. In the first six months Fitter Than Fit helped me lose well over a stone in body fat. No two sessions have ever been the same. It’s hard work, with a firm but fair mentality, but you will not find a more engaging, enjoyable and rewarding way to exercise. It’s changed something I used to dread into something I can’t wait for.

I am more confident, have more energy and feel great.

We wanted to know what all the fuss was about...

CHEWTON GLEN HOTEL & SPA New Milton, New Forest, Hampshire, BH25 6QS

Wow. What beauty and finesse. My legs quickly felt the need to skip hop and hurry towards the grand entrance that is Chewton Glen. Situated in the curvatures of Mudiford, Chewton Glen stands regal amongst the green landscape. Voted most romantic hotel by Conde Naste, in this Garden of Eden I can see why. Elegance echoes through the hotel with beautiful touches of love and detail making Chewton Glen a home. Upon entering The Dining Room at Chewton Glen sun light floods through the glass conservatory draping a sparkling veil over its pathway. A fresh colour palette transcends from garden to interior creating a room in perfect harmony. Sat in a lime green cove, the tables dressed with white linen, glass wear twinkled against the amethyst water glasses. For me, my true love lay with the bunny napkin holders. White china bunnies with long perky ears are an addition you perhaps wouldn’t expect for an opulent eatery, but it was my favourite part. The service is impeccable, and a must to mention. Each member of staff was equally as dutiful and attended to us with ease around the room. Our sommelier was a joy. Great fun, charming and witty he brought a smile to each of our faces. Choosing to go on our own wine adventures we were able to pair a choice that matched the food and our own preferences. A French Sancerre smooth and buttery, ice cold, for myself, I dare say it can’t get much better. For those choosing to devil with some of the more game meats such as venison or duck then a full body red such as a Mourvedre would be sublime. Sultry in

156

consistency and rich in colour, recommended as a delicious tipple it didn’t disappoint. Happily tucking into homemade breads of sun blushed tomato, raisin and oat or simply plain interchanged with sips of flavourful wine, House were feeling smug. For starters each dish more exquisite looking than the next arrived at the table like small tidings of joy. Every ingredient has been placed with such care on the plate that a stunning visual of colour dances in front of you. Heritage beetroot salad entwined with roasted figs and truffle honey hug each other to create a delicate fusion of flavours in your mouth. Cut with ewe’s curd the sweetness is balanced and a handful of pumpkin seeds add that desired crunch. Cheese Soufflé. Need I say much more? Light, fluffy, cheesy, oozing, that should do it. Accompanied with a Waldorf salad just so you don’t feel too naughty, ohh well. On the set lunch menu of 3 courses for £25 the beetroot cured salmon with wasabi is light and fresh. Dressed with coriander and thinly sliced radish the hot pink rind offset the fleshy salmon. The result was quite stunning. For the main course a variety of dishes were picked. Slow-cooked lamb tagine served up in an unexpected display, and all the more better. A perfectly tender cut of lamb glistening with a fine glaze poised next to a small heap of harissa, if I dare to tuck in. Pearls of couscous fumbled between lustrous jewels of raisin

add a sweet touch that helps to cool the fire that might be starting in your mouth. Quantock duck breast just pink lay brazen over homegrown borlotti beans drizzled with slow gin sauce. Paired with wilted cabbage and aubergine caviar, this is melt in your mouth good. For a vegetarian option bubble and squeak topped with a fried duck egg. A verjus butter sauce laces the plate complete with seasonal veg. Desserts, the ultimate choice of sweet treats to fill that albeit very tiny gap in your stomach that is saying, Yes dessert please. Warm hot chocolate fondant traps a gooey centre waiting for a welcoming spoon to dive in. Calvados and salted caramel cut through the sweetness leaving you feeling perfectly satisfied, just stopping your tummy from tipping over the edge. For a mildly lighter dessert choice, iced honey parfait. Nuggets of sticky honey stud this honeybee dessert presenting you with moments of beautiful sweetness. For a change in texture twills of honey have been manipulated showcasing true artistry and crunch. Although the baked Alaska is a dessert for two, having fond memories of this 80s dessert it had to be picked. So House had it for one, I shall not comment. Beholding a warm glow on the peaks of each marshmallow meringue, this dessert shone with beauty. Filled with rich vanilla ice cream and blackcurrant compote, just heavenly. Tantalized with colour, style, and an Aladdin’s Cave of ingredients, Chewton Glen has bewitched me. I leave today with a twinkle in my eye. My recommendation, pay a visit to this enchanted palace and let the Chewton put a spell over you.

11TH JULY RUN IN COLOUR FOR DIVERSE ABILITIES AT KINGS PARK IN BOURNEMOUTH 9TH APRIL CHICKEN LICKEN, AT THE LIGHTHOUSE, POOLE’S CENTRE FOR THE ARTS Lighthouse, Poole’s centre for the arts, has an enchanting treat in store for younger audiences on Thursday 9 April with a lively and witty adaptation of classic barnyard tales by renowned visual theatre company DNA Puppetry and Visual Theatre. Chicken Licken is the company’s timeless classic for children and begins with baking bread, but events soon get out of hand as the chick is born from the egg and the ensuing adventures command the amused interest of children and adults alike as she is nearly eaten by the hungry Foxy-Loxy. In time, Chicken Licken grows up to eventually outwit the hunter as her courage and wisdom triumph over adversity. Chicken Licken is performed by Adam Bennett whose career in puppet theatre dates back to 1988. He has helped develop the use of puppetry for the likes of English National Opera and Marcello Magni (Theatre de Complicite) for the Lyric Hammersmith. Adam has recently been developing work as Artistic Director of Little Angel Theatre, London as well as performing at the Perth International Arts Festival, Australia. Previous DNA tours of Ball Pond Bobby and Terry Jones’ Fairy Tales have proved outstanding successes Poole Lighthouse www.lighthousepoole.co.uk

27TH MARCH SONGBIRD - THE MUSIC OF EVA CASSIDY, AT BOURNEMOUTH PAVILION THEATRE

Run, walk, skip, dance or jog your way around two fun and colourful courses – Run or Dye and the Electric Run - in aid of Dorset’s disability charity, Diverse Abilities during its 60th anniversary year. The Run or Dye 5k event, taking place on 11 July at Kings Park in Bournemouth, will see participants dressed up and covered in eco-friendly, plant-based powered dye for the most colour-filled day of your life where you become part of the rainbow and celebrate life, friendship, fitness and fun. Taking place on 2 May is the Electric Run at Wembley, London, and soon coming to Southampton. The run with a difference will have music pumping around the 5k course and flashing lights to create an electric wonderland. Both events are open and one is organised by Run or Dye and the other by the Electric Run but the local Dorset community can take part in these fun events and choose to raise funds to support children and adults with profound and complex disabilities, and their families. Sharon Wells, Events Fundraiser at Diverse Abilities said: “Both these events are fun and challenging - perfect for individuals, groups of friends or family members. They will definitely put a smile on your face and it is a great way to get fit while raising money. It would be great if people chose to support us during our 60th anniversary year.” Tickets for Run or Dye are £25.00 for individuals or £100 per team of five. Tickets for the Electric run are £34.50 per person (until 19 March) and team entries cost £30.00 per person (until 19 March).

Songbird: The Music of Eva Cassidy is a fantastic concert performance which also tells the story of one the greatest singers of the 1980s and 1990s. The music of Eva Cassidy only came to prominence in this country following her untimely early death but since Terry Wogan first played her recordings in 2000 she has had three No 1 UK hits and a total of eleven UK chart hits, including five top three albums. Supported by a brilliant on-stage live band, fantastic video footage and classic Eva Cassidy arrangements of some of the best songs of the late 20th century Sarah-Jane Buckley presents a show which has already been hailed as “a tour de force performance that is nothing short of phenomenal”.
