BoConcept announces a competition to celebrate the launch of a new storage system. Copenhagen is one of the world’s most exciting and liveable cities, and in honour of the launch of their new Copenhagen storage system BoConcept has teamed up with VisitDenmark to offer two lucky people a chance to see the city’s treasures for themselves. The competition is open from 1 March to 30 April.

Everyone’s storage needs are different. Whether you want put it all out there or tuck it away, storage needs to work for you. Need a simple and stylish bookcase? Need to showcase and protect treasures in the dining room? Need unobtrusive but functional storage? Need space for work? The Copenhagen wall system can serve all these needs and more – it shows what you want (and hides what you need).

The prize includes: • Round-trip airfare for two to Copenhagen • Five nights’ accommodation at the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel Copenhagen, designed by legendary Danish architect Arne Jacobsen • A special guided walking tour of Copenhagen’s architectural highlights

Available in a carefully curated range of finishes and created with the quality and attention to detail that customers have come to expect from BoConcept, this is the wall system everyone has been waiting for. Welcome Copenhagen into your home.

Property Lagoon, a new business venturing into property video tours has launched in Bournemouth. Founded by Steve Clark (The Design Lagoon Group), Property Lagoon specialises in creating emotive walkthroughs with the latest high-definition stabilised video technology. The product is aimed towards estate agents and property developers striving for a more effective way to showcase homes and is intended to help both home buyers and sellers.

“Over the years many people have asked why we, as a Danish company, didn’t have a product named after our own capital. The simple answer is that we were just waiting for exactly the right product, something really special. The Copenhagen storage system is the product we’ve been waiting for, and we’re very proud of it,” says BoConcept Collections Director Claus Ditlev Jensen

“With the prominence of online property websites and mobile technologies, everyone has the ability to find their dream home at their fingertips. Now imagine being able to watch a video tour on these platforms, warming to a property before arranging a viewing, then later reliving that viewing helping your decision making process”, says Steve.

SWAIN & RANDS INTRODUCE THE NEW LIVINROOM…

This powerful marketing medium assists people selling a property by showcasing a home in a more engaging and emotive manner, to a wider audience, facilitating a more efficient sale.

The LivinRoom Orangery is the latest addition to Swain & Rands ever-growing range of home improvement products. The LivinRoom Orangery is the best of both worlds, combining the light and sky views of a conservatory with the walls and ceiling of an extension. The LivinRoom Orangery is a truly multi-functional home extension, creating a pleasant and relaxing space. Alternatively it can be used as a perfect family room. The LivinRoom Orangery uses the well proven Ultraframe Classic roof at its heart, and a well-engineered internal framework is added, then plastered, to give a perimeter ceiling all the way round. The LivinRoom Orangery can be used in a range of shapes from Victorian, Georgian, Lean-to and Gables. The LivinRoom Orangery is also suitable to be used with

box gutters, meaning there is almost no limit to the design you can have. To further enhance the usability of the LivinRoom Orangery, down lighters and speakers can be built into the perimeter roof, so the homeowner can truly stamp their mark on this living space. A further option is the external Cornice aluminium guttering which adds to the overall external visual effect of this magnificent home improvement. For a modern, contemporary crossover between a conservatory and extension then the must have product is a Swain & Rands LivinRoom Orangery. To find out more about this product, or any home improvement that Swain & Rands can offer feel free to contact the office on 01202 536 422, email info@swainandrands. co.uk or visit www.swainandrands.co.uk

STAMP DUTY – THEY’VE GOT YOU COVERED AT TAYLOR WIMPEY’S COAST! Property investors in Dorset are being offered a fantastic deal by Taylor Wimpey at its exciting new Coast development in Bournemouth. With landlords and second home-owners due to face an extra 3% surcharge on stamp duty rates from April 2016, the leading housebuilder is offering to pay this additional levy for investors choosing a brand new apartment at the stunning coastal development*. Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “Would-be landlords and holiday-home owners at Coast no longer need to worry about the additional stamp duty bill announced in the Chancellor’s Autumn Statement. For purchases which are due to complete after the changes come into force in April 2016, we’re offering to pay the difference, so investors only need to fund the stamp duty bill they would have previously paid. “With interest rates still at an all-time low, investing in property offers a much better

rate of return than saving with a bank or building society, so it’s no surprise that the new apartments at Coast – with their highly-desirable seaside location – continue to prove popular with canny buyers. I’d advise potential investors to visit us without delay to find out more!” There’s a fantastic selection of apartments currently available at Coast, including two-bedroom holiday lets from £277,000 at Escape@Coast, plus two and three-bedroom apartments from £355,000, and two-bedroom penthouses from £650,000.

Sales Information Centre, located at Bournemouth International Hotel (BIH), 6-10 Priory Road, Bournemouth, BH2 5DL, and open Thursday to Monday from 10am to 5pm (Fridays from 1pm to 5pm). Property-seekers can call the Sales Executive on 01202 048155 to book a viewing appointment. Information about Taylor Wimpey developments across the region is available by visiting the website at www.taylorwimpey.co.uk or calling 01962 676700.

Each of the new homes at Coast is completed to a high standard specification, including energy efficient central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with integrated oven, hob and hood. Each apartment also boasts its own balcony or terrace.

TROUBLED FORMER PUBLIC HOUSE RISES AS FAMILY HOUSES needed and frankly wonderful housing for the younger families to enjoy. New Milton needs this type of housing stock desperately.”

The site now has seven three and four-bedroom family homes nearing completion and to mark this Bayview Developments invited AFC Bournemouth premiership player Tyrone Mings and The Mayor of New Milton Cllr David Hawkins to mark the occasion with them by completing the planting of one of the many new trees included as part of a wider landscaping scheme. Both were impressed with the development with Cllr Hawkins commenting to the 60 plus guests “It is fantastic to see this tired and historically troublesome site turned into much

Cllr Ward who is Ward Councillor for the area added “I am also happy with the finished result which has come through careful thoughtful development.”

Guests were treated to bubbles and canapes in a relaxed environment and clearly these were enjoyed by all. One local resident who lives adjacent to the development also said that “It is really nice to see the pub gone and we are delighted with the finished development”

Jason Gadsby from Bayview had a further comment and thoughts “We are delighted that these new homes have been so well received, and we are extremely grateful for all the support and good wishes received from local residents. Everyone has been so patient given the inevitable disruption that is caused throughout the building phase but we very much hope that we have created not

Diverse Abilities, Dorset’s desperately under-funded charity for children and adults with profound disabilities, is urgently appealing for donations as it struggles to raise the required funds to run its crucial services supporting over 700 people in Dorset living with a disability, and their families, plus working with and giving advice to hundreds more. This financial year donations are down by £100,000, despite the outstanding fundraising efforts by the Dorset community that supports them and the charity’s team.

Last Thursday saw Dorset based Property Development company Bayview Developments hold a tree planting ceremony on the site of the former Oak and Yaffle Public House in New Milton. The Site now rebuilt as family houses is due for imminent completion and the company invited neighbours, Councillors, and Local Residents alike to raise a glass and thank them for supporting the development.

only seven new homes that will stand the test of time, but an improved sense of place following the redevelopment of an abandoned public house.” The event was attended by over 60 guests and they all got time to chat to a Premiership Star and raise a glass in the sun. For more information contact Jason Gadsby at Bayview on 01202 752 222 or email jason@bayviewdevelopments.com.

Through working hard at making cost savings wherever possible, the charity is determined not to make any cuts to services delivered but needs further support from the Dorset community to help them secure this. Without Diverse Abilities families would have little help in coping with the challenges they face. For the charity to continue providing its vital support, it is urgently pleading for the local community’s support to fundraise or donate as much as they are able. To make a donation and find out how it could make a difference to children and adults with disabilities, please visit w w w. d i v e r s e a b i l i t i e s . org.uk/donate or call the fundraising team on 01202 718266.

BUDGET 2016 – PROPERTY ROUND UP George Osbourne’s 2016 Budget aims to encourage solid, steady growth. He has made a particular effort to appeal to small businesses and the self-employed however, will it affect the local property market?

• Improved infrastructure projects will increase commutable distances and property prices should ripple up accordingly. Freezing fuel duty will also help commuters and businesses.

Here is a round-up of the announcements made about the property sector: • Boost housing by speeding up planning and zoning. • The additional levy of 3% on SDLT for those buying additional properties in the UK was confirmed, with larger property investors also included in these new charges. • Life Time ISAs will be introduced to help those under 40 years old save for a deposit for a property or for their pension. For every £4 saved, the Government will match it with £1 – giving those with these accounts a 25% bonus on their savings. People will be able to save up to £4000 per year up until the age of 50. • £1,000 tax free allowance for those who make money from online trading and letting their property – perhaps renting out their driveway or their home while they are on holiday. • Commercial property stamp duty changes include 0% up to £150,000, 2% up to £250,000 and 5% top rate above £250,000. Buyers of commercial property up to £1.05m will pay less in stamp duty. • Feel-good factors that might lead to increased spending include an increase in business rate relief from £6,000 to £15,000 from April next year (higher rate from £18,000 to £51,000). The abolition of Class 2 national Insurance will be welcomed by the self-employed. The tax-free personal allowance will rise from next year.

Unlike previous Budgets and the Autumn Statement, there don’t appear to be any measures that have been announced in the 2016 Budget which I believe will have an adverse on the property market. There were rumours that the Chancellor may have performed a U-turn on the 3% SDLT levy for second property purchases being introduced on 1st April however this was not the case. This will naturally deter some buy-to-let purchasers and indeed second home buyers in the short term however as with all of these measures, in time, the market will adjust accordingly and these charges will become part and parcel of the buying process. The market is still showing positive signs and here at Winkworth, we have experienced an incredibly busy first quarter in both sales and lettings. We have large numbers of extremely good buyers registered with us who are keen to buy in all price brackets. Should you be considering selling or letting your property and would like a valuation, or you are just curious as to the value of your home, please contact Winkworth to arrange a free, no obligation market appraisal.

ABI calls for flood risk warnings on properties A survey by the Association of British Insurers (ABI) has revealed that nine in ten people believe flood risk information should be mandatory on any material regarding properties for sale. The industry body has also criticised property search websites and estate agent marketing materials as lacking important

SETTING YOU ON THE PATH TO GARDENING SUCCESS

consumer information regarding the risks of flooding. A flood is one of the biggest risks a UK homeowner can face, with more than 2.4 million properties in England at direct risk. This is especially worse in winter, as rainfall increases across the country. For these reasons, the ABI have called for a traffic light system to be used on all information regarding properties for sale in the UK, to make the flood risks for homebuyers clear. In the meantime, the Statement of Principles and the government Flood Re scheme protects homeowners, and homebuyers, of flood-risk properties from seeing their insurance premiums spiral continually upwards. Due to be launched in April 2016, Flood Re will cap insurance in flood-prone areas. This is a huge relief for those that may not have considered exactly how costly reoccurring flood damage can be, although neither the Statement nor Flood Re applies to properties built during or after 2009. Although as many as one in six properties could be at risk of flooding in the UK, too many do not contemplate the dangers. If you want to know more about how your home can be protected, talk to us about buildings insurance options that can suit your needs.

ASK THE EXPERT The Mortgage Doctor offers his advise on all your mortgage needs

Letters from readers Our son still lives with us but wants to get onto the property ladder without moving out yet. Can he buy a rental property and let it out? He has managed to save over £15,000 so far. - Mr & Mrs D, Talbot Woods Well, first of all, bravo to him for wanting to get onto the property ladder as quickly as he can. He is on the right track though. The trend is towards house prices moving further out of the reach of the younger generation. Getting a buy to let (BTL) mortgage isn’t as easy as some people think. The rules relating to BTL are there to prevent people from using a BTL mortgage to obtain a property that they could not otherwise obtain through a standard residential mortgage. Also, for a first time landlord, the minimum deposit is 25% which means your son’s savings will only allow him to buy a property valued at £60,000. I don’t think there are any properties like that in this neighbourhood. Perhaps he would like to buy a property up North. He could however have a residential mortgage, provided his income is sufficient. He can put his money down as a 10% deposit on a residence. He would have to move in but if he didn’t like living there, he could approach his lender for permission to let it out. There is a possibility that they might say no. They usually don’t but may charge an admin fee and a slightly higher interest rate if they agree. A residential mortgage must be on a repayment basis but BTL can be interest only so his first purchase will most probably be on a repayment basis, whether residential or BTL. Further purchases will be easier as he will be classed as an experienced landlord and he will be able to buy properties with BTL mortgages. I don’t know anything about mortgages and my friend was telling me she had a 70% LTV BTL with no ERCs. I didn’t know what she was on about but I didn’t want to be embarrassed asking so I said “That’s nice!” What do they all mean? - Karen (Not my real name), Creekmoor I can relate to you. All professions love to use acronyms to make them sound like they know what they are talking about and to confuse others who are not in the know. It’s like listening to your dentist as they wheel off a load of terms and you’re wondering; “Will it hurt and how much will it cost?” The answer to your question is quite simple: She has a 75% loan to value buy to let mortgage with no early repayment charges. Translated: the mortgage takes up three quarters of the value of the property. One quarter is hers, probably her deposit. If she either repays some of the mortgage or the property rises in value, then her LTV will drop and she may be able to get a lower rate mortgage. The higher the LTV, the higher the rate. Buy to let means she is renting the property out and no early repayment charges means she can sell the property or remortgage to another lender with no financial penalties. I hope you can feel more confident when your friend talks properties.

Christine Brewer runs the accounts office and has worked with Move On for 6 years. Christine is not only mum to the office (bringing in home-made cakes), we also affectionately call her ‘heart on legs’. She cares about our clients and has been known to go round to tenants to collect their rent to help if they cannot make it into the office. Christine is also another unsung hero and will often be Nicky with a duster and hoover, if a property needs a quick dust bust.

Along with her fellow team member Christine, Nicky has been seen mowing lawns on a Sunday in her own time ready for viewings on a Monday (very often not known told to landlords). Nicky will work around the clock to meet a deadline for our clients (tenant or landlord) not to be let down. Nicky is one of our unsung heroes.

Now in its 4th year of successful trading with 95% of sales put in hand having completed. It’s success is down to the expertise involved and the total understanding of the legalities of Tenancy Law and ensuring a smooth process.

Nicky Scott, runs the maintenance department and has worked with Move On for 10 years and is affectionately titled ‘part of the furniture’ and ‘elephant brain’ (because she retains so much information on past and present properties. She is friendly and approachable and will do anything for anyone. Nicky attends property inspections and prepares full colour reports for our landlords and tenants and passes over any maintenance issues to Chantelle.

The outgoing landlord receives rent up to the day of completion. The ingoing landlord receives rent from day one, the buy to let mortgage have proof of rent being achieved and the tenants are able stay in their home.

MOVE ON is celebrating 10 years this year! Sharon Canning the director says ‘This is a phenomenal achievement and I am so very proud of where we were and where we are today as well as where the future is taking us, however, the success of Move On, falls very much on the dedication of the team. Individually they are outstanding people and over the last few weeks we have featured Gina Jo Parry (General Manager), Jonathan Moss (Sales Manager) and myself, here are three more and as you will see, each one has a major attribute of going beyond and making sure our landlords, tenants, vendors, purchasers or investors get a VIP treatment. Each client to us is a person and not a number and happy clients makes us happy.

Landlord To Landlord Sales is an award winning national estate agency dedicated to the buy to let market and giving a win-win solution for all parties involved.

(Left to right: Nicky Scott, Chantelle Organ, Christine Brewer)

Being a landlord herself, Christine understands the importance of ensuring the landlords’ mortgages are paid on time and therefore is extremely efficient at chasing rents to ensure they are paid promptly and to iron out any issues should they arise.

TALKING BUSINESS

Willton Homes A Planning Case Study - Merley Lane, Wimborne Willton Homes have always believed that a good location is the key to a successful site and when an older home in Merley Lane near Wimborne was offered to the market for the first time in many years Willton had already identified the property with its’ exceptionally large garden and range of outbuildings as one having potential for a niche development. After successfully competing against several other bidders, Willton Homes then approached neighbouring owners, two of whom agreed to sell a portion of their gardens to facilitate a development. Commented Neville Smith-Daniels, Willton Homes Land Director, “This was a classic situation where the overly large gardens were becoming a burden to the owners, severing some of their garden did not adversely affect the residual value of their homes and provided a valuable monetary return. The owners’ main concerns naturally focused upon retaining the privacy that they had long enjoyed and we therefore worked hard on a viable design solution.” Over the coming weeks Willton Homes entered formal Option Agreements with both adjacent owners to protect all parties’ best interests and

instructed renowned local firm Trinity Architects to work on designs for three individual bungalows for this portion of the site. “Having originally wanted to retain and refurbish/ extend the existing house at 60 Merley Lane we realised that the design of the house produced

...there is no substitute to presenting a fully considered and professionally backed application... challenges and created a pinch point in the access driveway serving the scheme. We therefore decided to demolish and replace with a four bedroom family home at the entrance to the development”, said Neville. “This gave the development a sense of unity and vastly improved the street scene in this visible location at the end of Oakley Straight”.

Willton Homes, who have been successfully trading for 20 years this August have long learned the benefit of bringing the right expertise into the planning process, as soon as contracts were finalised the necessary experts added their input to the preparation of a full planning application. “It always surprises land owners the amount of reports now required to put forward a strong planning application”, comments Neville. On this occasion these included a topographical survey, ground investigations, a speed survey and highways report to confirm the access would be safe, arboriculture reports on trees both in and outside of the site boundary, an ecology survey, and finally a design and access statement to accompany the plans submitted to the local authority. “We believe there is no substitute to presenting a fully considered and professionally backed application that addresses all the issues and challenges of each site”. All of the hard work and consultations with local residents was worthwhile when the Borough of Poole’s Planning Committee gave overwhelming support to the scheme at their subsequent meeting.

TALKING BUSINESS

Turning Plans Into Reality Following planning approval Willton Homes quickly completed their purchase of the collective gardens and property, they then began clearance of the site and construction of the four individual new homes. The company have their own Site Managers as well as a team of experienced ground workers and crew to ensure a smooth and professional build process using experienced and long-standing sub-traders and suppliers. The resulting development has been well received by both prospective purchasers and neighbours and now adds an attractive addition to the locality. The site, known as Fenners, sits within walking distance of local shops and amenities, a local pub and riverside walks. Wimborne is also within walking distance with both Broadstone and Poole easily accessible. Christopher Batten Estate Agents have introduced buyers for two of the homes so far, with a three bedroom bungalow and a four bedroom house still currently available at the time of going to press.

TALKING BUSINESS

TALKING BUSINESS House talks business with Michelle, Ian and Abbi from Leaders

Leaders

Getting to know you… The national company that are making a massive impact, in the local area. You’ve more than likely seen, or heard of, Leaders before, they are a pioneering national brand, dedicated to the buying, selling and letting of properties – but how does such a large company fit in with the local community? We visited the team at Leaders in Poole, to find out how their approach to estate agency, really does make a difference. Michelle, Ian and Abbi took the time to tell us more. Leaders as a company, have a certain way of doing things. They make it their mission to get to know their clients, with this in mind, is there a particular protocol, and or a certain service you give to ensure that? We get a rapport going, and sometimes it’s not all about ‘XYZ’, it’s about other things that maybe aren’t as obvious. It’s just about being very hands on, and what we do here, is follow it through the entire way to ensure our clients move is as stress free as possible. Right from the free valuation, to

securing sale, and that’s where the real work beings, and that is where that relationship becomes even more important. (Michelle) I agree. Here, nothing get’s passed on to a third party, or a sales chaser; we are with you right from the very start, all the way through to you getting the keys to your new home. (Ian) And that’s the best part! (Michelle) What lead you to a career in property? For me it was just a personal change. I like working with people, and I was really surprised by just how much more in-depth it is. I don’t think people realise how much goes in to selling a property, in terms of the unexpected things that crop up. I always think it’s a privilege to be invited into someone’s home, and then to go on to hopefully sell it, is great. There’s nothing like that thrill of helping people in such an important and emotional process. It’s about people for me, and being out and about in the local area. (Michelle) Mine was straightforward; I gave up work to be a househusband when I moved to Dorset, around 15 years ago. When we were scouting out the area, looking for somewhere to live ourselves, we were with an agent who was just so unprofessional and really didn’t know his stuff, and it struck me that I could do a better job than this guy. 18 months down the line, when my newborn wasn’t so much of a baby anymore, I walked past this office and saw that they were hiring and I knew I wanted to do a better job, than the disservice I had experienced. 12 years later, here I am now. (Ian)

I’m always looking online at properties - I love it! I love seeing how other people live, and I think it’s those curiosities that lead me to Leaders. I was a hairdresser previously, so it’s a complete change, but the principle of getting to know people, is still the same. (Abbi) “In the meantime a big thank you to all involved in the office , but especially to you and Michelle, you have been personal and professional at the same time which is difficult to attain. Many thanks” - M&M, Avenel Way, Poole What drives you to succeed? It’s not all about the sale, although that is lovely. It’s about the satisfaction that you can give to somebody. We we’re recently marketing a property alongside another agent, and the client actually mentioned how poor the service was from the other agent. It makes me cringe, when you see agents going into a property with that kind of ‘no care attitude’. Even down to the quality of (or in some cases lack of) the photographs. You can tell who is, and who isn’t putting in the effort and who really wants to help you sell. (Michelle) You’re right, they seem to get the property on their books and then not give a damn. Okay it sounds cheesy and I really don’t want it to, but we hope to do the best for our clients. Of course, like any agent we are employed, we have bills to pay, but we like to take an approach that says; ok you’ve chosen to put your trust in us, let’s give you the best possible service …And now we’re so happy to have Abbi, who is younger and will be able to deepen the engagement with our younger buyers and sellers, because we see she genuinely cares just as much as we do. (Ian)

We work to create and also nurture a relationship with our clients.

TALKING BUSINESS

With stamp duty due to rise in April, I think a lot of people would be keen to hear a professional opinion as to how it might affect them? I think those that will be affected the most, will actually be tenants saving up a deposit to buy their first home. This may be harder if rents increase as some investors may try to claw back any additional costs… (Michelle) …but people are still investing in property, and will continue to because it’s still a great investment. Far better than having it sit in the bank doing nothing. (Ian) At the end of the day, people will only pay what they think a property is worth. So prices my rise, but they’ll have to be reasonable. (Michelle)

How do high-street agents, compete with the online agencies? The online agents are an option for those who are particularly concerned about fees; however we are only seeing a few people take this route because most people don’t want to approach the sale of their home in the same way as selling and old sofa on eBay. Without having a local branch, or a team of staff that only get paid for success, the online agents can hide behind the Internet. In a lot of cases, once your upfront fee is paid, they lose interest, because they don’t earn any more or less when you sell, so there isn’t a driving force to help you sell for the best price in the shortest amount of time possible. (Ian) If you are looking for an agency with a keen eye for attention to detail, with agents who really truly know,

and will get to know, your property inside and out. Then this is the team for you. With a wealth of local knowledge, and with the backing and reputation of a national company, they can open so many doors for you. Hopefully with the keys to your brand new home.

Diary of Award Winning Sales and Letting Agent Move On Sharon Canning

THE BUDGET AND 2016 IN THE PROPERTY SECTOR! What a month March is turning out to be! Deals desperately being done before the 31st for investors not to be caught out on the 3% surcharge on second properties. Solicitors all over the country must be working round the clock to ensure completions are done in time. The budget of course is probably on most people’s minds as the deadline for print was within hours of the Chancellors speech in the commons. Here is what I have managed to grasp and no doubt will find a few more after. 1. Stamp Duty increases from the 1st April will go ahead for people owning more than one property. A couple of amendments are one: Overlaps - if you have moved from one property to another and the outgoing property takes longer to sell, the time period has been extended from 18 months to 36 months. Although I understand you will be liable to pay the increase stamp duty, you will be able to claim it back once the ‘sticking’ property has been sold. Two: Splitting couples - where a couple have split up they will not be known as a single entity. 2. Capital Gains – at first sight this looked great, reducing the capital gain tax from 28% to 20 % from the 1st April, however, the small print does confirm this will not apply to properties – (a bit mean Mr Osborne) 3. 10% wear and tear allowance will discontinue on furnished properties, however, all like for like replaced furniture or white goods can be deducted. The white goods rule was changed a couple of years ago to only integrated appliances, however, this might have changed, and I will look further into this and confirm in my next update. 4. Rent a Room allowance has increased form £4,250 to £7,500 a year. Great news for those who rent to a lodger or student. 5. 25% per annum non-deduction from 2017 on mortgage interest relief increasing to 100% by 2020, unfortunately no u-turn or amendment. The above will have an impact on the market this year, the murmurs within the industry is there will be 100,0000 less transactions throughout the UK, which will have an impact in some areas being a sellers’ market with house prices going up and on the rental side as some landlords take an exit, the rental sector could see prices going up. 2016 will be a very interesting year!

Margaret, 75, living with cancer My day didn’t start too well. Everything had got on top of me and I felt really low. When I called the Macmillan Support Line, I didn’t know where to start. But somehow they helped me find the words. Just talking honestly about how I felt was such a relief. Now I don't have to cope with the bad days on my own.

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 re-manufacturing 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

FERRARI 488 SPIDER Ferrari says its 488 Spider is the latest chapter in its “ongoing love affair with opentop V8 sports cars”. Starting with the retractable hard top, around which the entire car was developed, every area of the 488 Spider has been designed to set new technological benchmarks for the sector, the company says. The car is powered by a mid-rear mounted 3.9 litre V8 turbo-charged engine, mated to a 7-speed F1 dual-clutch transmission. Top speed is 203 mph, the 0-60 mph time just 3.0 seconds. Fuel consumption is 24.8 mpg combined. On sale in the UK this Spring, the price of the 488 Spider has not yet been announced but is likely to be around £200,000.

ROAD TEST: PEUGEOT 308 GTI Peugeot is widely regarded as a manufacturer of day to day family and business vehicles, and the company’s strong sporting heritage is sometimes overlooked, writes NICK FLETCHER. Yet Peugeot has a long history of rallying success and has even competed at the famous Le Mans 24 Hour event. It is also well established when it comes to hot hatches, starting back in the 1980s with the iconic and now very collectable 205GTi. Now there is another striking ‘hot’ Peugeot hatch available - the new 308GTi. Powered by a turbo-charged 1.6 litre petrol engine, the car can be specified with either a 250 hp version, or 270 hp, giving a searing 0-60 mph time of 6 seconds and 6.2 seconds respectively. Both can attain 155 mph and a 6-speed manual gearbox is standard. Fuel economy is more reasonable than you might expect for this type of model - 47.1 mpg combined. Emissions are 139 g/km. Priced at £26,555 and £28,155, they offer a credible alternative to other mainstream hot hatches such as the VW Golf GTi, SEAT Leon Cupra and theFord Focus ST. Both versions of the 308 GTi feature understated yet still eye-catching looks, with big alloys, gloss-black detailing,

discreet rear spoiler and twin exhausts. They also have lowered and stiffened suspension. The black-trimmed cabin has grippy sports-style seats and a leather steering wheel. The instrument binnacle is sited above the steering wheel - a Peugeot quirk - so the dials are seen above the wheel rather than through it. Standard features includes satellite navigation, cruise control, DAB radio, dual-zone climate control, reversing camera, parking sensors and Bluetooth. Most functions are operated via a touchscreen which is easy enough to operate once you familiarise. On the road, the 308 GTi is fast and responsive, especially the higher-powered version which has a limited-slip differential and larger alloys. It can tackle tight corners at speed with great composure and with good steering feedback. Yet it is still docile and comfortable pottering around town. While this kind of car is all about the driving, it can be practical too. While the rear seat accommodation is a tad smaller than rivals such as the Golf, it is still acceptable and the boot space of 470 litres will swallow a lot of shopping. The 308 GTi is a welcome addition to the hot hatch sector, offering impressive driving dynamics, lots of standard kit, and a visual touch of French cachet.

BMW LIMITED EDITION

146

BMW has announced a limited edition version of its i8 hybrid. On sale in September, the Protonic Red Edition will be available only for a limited period, and is priced from £112,535. It has 382 hp, a top speed of 155 mph, fuel economy of 113 mpg combined and emissions of just 59g/km. The interior of the special edition i8 comes with red doublestitching and exclusive carbon fibre and ceramic trims. The BMW i8 was designed as a plug-in-hybrid sports car offering agile performance, near 50:50 weight distribution and outstanding efficiency. It includes an advanced BMW eDrive technology, turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and intelligent energy management. The 1.5-litre engine in the BMW i8 develops 231hp and drives the rear wheels. The car’s second power source is a 131hp hybrid electric motor which sends its power to the front axle. As well as providing a power boost to assist the petrol engine during acceleration, the electric motor can also power the vehicle by itself with a range in everyday driving of up to 22 miles and a top speed of 75mph on electric power alone.

MOTORING

NEW BMW MODEL BENTLEY FLYING SPUR V8 S Making its debut in March at the Geneva Motor Show, the new 521 hp 4.0 litre twin-turbo Bentley Flying Spur V8 S. Capable of 190 mph and with a 0-60 mph time of just 4.6 seconds, this new model offers, says Bentley, “a more focused, precise driving experience.” The Flying Spur V8 S features a number of sporting styling cues which hint at its new and improved sporting capabilities. A black radiator grille and rear diffuser along with a unique grille insert give the new model a dramatic and purposeful appearance to match its enhanced performance. The increased performance is achieved without detriment to the V8 engine’s fuel economy and CO2 emissions, or its ability to cover more than 837 km (520 miles) between fill-ups. The new Flying Spur V8 S returns combined fuel economy of 25.9 mpg, with CO2 emissions of 254 g/km.

Revisions made to both the engine and transmission calibrations have sharpened throttle response and made the Flying Spur V8 S’s power accessible lower down the rev range. In ‘S’ mode, drivers will find sharper-still throttle response and additional engine braking from the transmission. New responsive suspension tuning for the Flying Spur V8 S improves handling and body control. Bentley says:”For those wishing to display an even more extreme look, the Flying Spur V8 S can be specified with an array of aggressive, dark styling elements. Dark-tint lights (front and rear), black gloss exterior mirror covers and a unique Mulliner Driving Specification 21” black and bright machined six-spoke wheel can all be specified to menacing effect.” Price of the new model has not yet been announced.

ROAD TEST: CITROEN BERLINGO MULTISPACE XTC BLUE While many people want a car offering plenty of space and versatility, they don’t always want a large MPV which can be unwieldly to park, and have higher running costs, writes NICK FLETCHER. The answer lies in the smaller van-based MPVs, neater, more nimble, cheaper to buy and run, yet still surprising capacious. One of the most popular in this niche sector is the Citroen Berlingo Multispace. The Berlingo, like its main rivals, is van-based and offers a huge tailgate and boot, sliding rear doors, petrol or diesel engines and manual or auto gearboxes. There is also the option of seven seats on some models. Prices start at £12,355 though the entry version is short of standard equipment and most buyers will opt to move up the range. The mid-range Feel models offer best value, though my recent test model was a top-spec XTC Blue priced at £18,725. For that you get a wealth of features which include 7-inch touch screen, cruise control with speed limiter, 16 inch alloys, air-conditioning, DAB radio, USB, Bluetooth with media streaming, roof bars, body cladding, rear parking sensors, aircraft style folding tables and interal roof storage. The 1.6 litre 120 hp diesel engine is reasonably nippy with a 0-60 mph in 11.4 seconds, and top speed 109 mph. Fuel economy – the Blue version also features Stop-Start - is very good at 64.2 mpg combined. The raised driving position and

large glass areas give excellent all-round visibility, the steering provides good feedback, the six speed manual gearshift is slick. And despite its van roots, the ride quality and comfort is excellent thanks to revised suspension. While the exterior looks rather boxy, the Berlingo does manage to deliver a certain amount of style and presence, mainly due to its smoothed-out frontal design. Inside, the cabin is impressive, with supportive seating, lots of occupant space, and a 675 litre boot which increases to a massive 3,000 litres with the seats folded. There are also lots of stowage places in the doors, dashboard, under the seats and even in the floor, plus a central roof box and above-windscreen shelving. In my view it is the most versatile car in the compact MPV sector.

The recently launched BMW 7 Series now has a prestigious flagship, the new M760Li xDrive V12. With TwinPower Turbo technology incorporated for the first time, this new M Performance engine produces 600hp and gives the car a 0-60 mph time of just 3.9 seconds. The chassis is specifically tailored to the model, and power is deployed to the road via BMW’s xDrive all-wheeldrive system with a rear-bias for more dynamic handling. The new model is instantly recognisable thanks to the M Performance body enhancements, specific trim details and unique 20-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the M760Li xDrive V12 retains the luxurious ambience of the new BMW 7 Series, but adds sporting elements such as the M Performance steering wheel and illuminated V12 logo and exclusive M pedals. Combined fuel consumption is 22.4mpg and CO2 emissions are 294g/km.An eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission is fitted as standard in the new M760Li xDrive V12. M Performance-specific tuning of the shift programs delivers sportier gear changes and more instantaneous downshifts throughout the rev range. Launch Control function is also included. Equipment includes electrically adjustable Comfort seats at the front and rear, sunblinds for the rear windscreen and rear windows, Merino leather, and black wood trim with high-gloss metal effect. The model will be available later this year and prices have not yet been announced.

FOOD & DRINK

FLAVOUR-FULL AND GLUTEN-FREE Since she and her son were diagnosed with coeliac disease almost a decade ago, Naomi Devlin has dedicated her time to making wholesome and flavoursome gluten-free cooking more accessible. From bespoke teaching days held in her family kitchen in Dorset, to her booked-out cookery classes at River Cottage - the base of operations seen in chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s TV series - she’s a woman on a dietary mission, and the latest string to her bow is her much-anticipated debut book, River Cottage Gluten Free. Devlin doesn’t have formal chef schooling - but that hasn’t held her back, and the knowledge she’s gleaned as a nutritionist, along with her honest approach to food and vitality, and first-hand experience of living gluten-free, make up for any gaps. It’s a formula that seems to have worked: River Cottage Gluten Free is an authentic collection

of 120 recipes - from breads to soups and cakes - for anybody looking to cut out gluten without compromising on taste, plus tips on alternative flours, methods of fermentation and delicious baking ideas. A key aim for Devlin was to produce a cookbook that empowered people to feel confident in cooking gluten-free - a philosophy that applies to her courses too. As for anybody with coeliac disease, being entirely gluten-free is a non-negotiable part of life for Devlin. However, she acknowledges that increasingly, avoiding gluten can be a lifestyle choice for some people. By Gemma Dunn, Press Association Fancy trying out some gluten-free creations of your own? Here are three tasty recipes from Devlin’s new book to try at home...

Ingredients

Almond Flatbread (Makes 1 flatbread)

Butter for greasing (optional) Sesame seeds or poppy seeds for sprinkling on the baking sheet (optional) 4 large eggs, separated 20g ground linseed 100g potato starch 150g ground almonds, coconut flour or ground cashews 250g full fat Greek yoghurt 2tsp gluten-free baking powder 1tsp sea salt Nigella, poppy, cumin, fennel or sesame seeds for sprinkling on top

Method Preheat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/Gas 6. At the same time, put a roasting tray on the bottom shelf and boil a kettle of water. Generously butter a baking sheet and sprinkle liberally with sesame or poppy seeds, or line with a sheet of baking parchment. Put the egg yolks, linseed, potato starch, ground nuts or coconut flour, yoghurt and baking powder into a large bowl and beat with a balloon whisk or electric whisk until the mixture is smooth, pale and creamy. In a large, clean bowl, whisk the egg whites with the salt, using a balloon whisk, electric whisk or stand mixer, until stiff peaks form. Stir a spoonful of the beaten egg white into the almond mixture to loosen it, then carefully fold in the rest using a spatula, without knocking out too much air. Spoon the mixture onto the baking sheet and gently spread into an oval or teardrop shape, about 2cm thick. Sprinkle with your chosen seeds.

Put the baking sheet into the oven and pour boiling water into the roasting tin to half fill it. Bake the flatbread for about 12-15 minutes, depending on thickness, until risen, golden and springy to the touch. This flatbread is best eaten within a few hours of baking.

Fish Fingers (Serves 4)

Ingredients

Method

400g sustainable fish fillets, such as cod, hake, pollock, haddock or whiting 150g gluten-free white flour, or rice flour or cornflour 1tsp (heaped) sea salt 2 eggs 175g gluten-free breadcrumbs (You can make your own using shop-bought gluten-free bread. Or, for fancier crumbs, there are recipes for brioche, sourdough and baguettes in the book which can be crumbed, or you can use gluten-free oats) Lard, dripping or groundnut oil for shallow frying Black pepper

Check your fish for any pin bones, removing any you find with kitchen tweezers. Slice the fish into roughly 12 fingers and pat dry with kitchen paper.

fish over to make sure it is fully coated, then set aside on a clean plate. Repeat with the rest of the fish.

Get three deep plates or wide bowls ready for coating the fish fingers. Put the flour into the first bowl and season with the salt and a good grinding of pepper. In the second bowl, beat the eggs well with a fork. Put the breadcrumbs into the third bowl.

Heat a 1cm depth of fat in a deep, heavy-based frying pan. When it is hot, fry the fish fingers, in batches if necessary, for a few minutes each side until the crumb coating is golden. Unless your fish pieces are very thick, this should be enough to cook them right through. If in doubt, break one open and check that the fish inside is hot and opaque.

Take one piece of fish and press it into the flour. Turn and repeat to coat both sides, then tap off any excess. Pop it into the egg and turn it over quickly with a fork or your fingers, to coat completely. Drop the fish into the crumbs and use a spoon to cover it with crumbs. Using your other hand, turn the

Drain the fish fingers on kitchen paper and serve straight away, with a leafy salad, or peas or green beans. 149

FOOD & DRINK

Rose & Pistachio Cake (Serves 8-10)

PA Photo/Bloomsbury/Laura Edwards

Ingredients

Method

230g salted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing 180g light muscovado sugar 4tsp rosewater 2tsp vanilla extract 4 large eggs, beaten 160g potato starch 3tsp gluten-free baking powder 160g ground almonds For the filling and topping: 225ml double cream 1 quantity rose buttercream (see below), or extra whipped cream 50g pistachio nuts, finely chopped Fresh or crystallised rose petals (optional)

Put the icing sugar, butter and vanilla into a bowl and mash together with a wooden spoon until all the icing sugar is damp and the butter is broken down a bit. Swap to an electric hand whisk if you have one, otherwise continue to beat with the wooden spoon until the mixture is starting to lighten.

To make the buttercream: 150g icing sugar 100g salted butter, softened 1tsp vanilla extract 4-6tsp milk or almond milk

150

Add the milk, one teaspoon at a time, beating well between each addition. You may not need all the milk, so check after four teaspoons to see if you like the texture. (Buttercream made with dairy milk needs to be eaten within 48 hours; if made with dairy free milk, it keeps a little longer.) Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Line the base of two 20cm cake tins with discs of baking parchment and butter the sides. Cream the butter, sugar, rosewater and vanilla extract together in a bowl with an electric hand whisk or balloon whisk until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs, beating well between each addition. If it looks like the mixture is starting to curdle, add a couple of tablespoonfuls of the potato starch and beat again - it should come right.

Sift the potato starch, baking powder and ground almonds together over the mixture and fold in gently but thoroughly. Scrape into the prepared tins and gently level the surface. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden, springy to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave in the tins for 10-15 minutes, then run a thin bladed knife around the inside of the tins. Turn out the cakes and place, right side up, on a wire rack. Leave to cool. When the cakes are completely cold, whip the cream until thick, but not grainy. Put one of the cakes onto a plate and spread the cream almost to the edge. Place the other cake gently on top and twist it back and forth a little, just until the cream is peeking out between the layers. Pipe or spread the rose buttercream over the top of the cake, or top with more whipped cream. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and scatter over a few fresh or crystallised rose petals if you have them.

INTERVIEW

House talks to author Heidi Perks about her new book, Beneath the Surface

Heidi Perks

Your, soon to be favourite, local author Heidi and I met one sunny afternoon at House Magazine HQ, to talk about her soon to be published novel, ‘Beneath The Surface’. Instantly captured by her charm and humility, it’s hard to believe a women so enchanting could have written a novel so dark. The story is set with a young Abigail, who returns home from a perfectly ordinary school day, only to find that her family has vanished, without a trace (or so it seems). Encouraged by her grandmother to forget the past and move on with her life, Abigail does so, until it is her turn to take on parenthood, when the secrets that were once buried, cannot be contained any longer. I won’t say anymore, I’ll let you read it for yourselves. For now let us return to our author in the spotlight: Heidi. After graduating from Bournemouth University in 1997, with a BA (Hons) in Retail Management, Heidi went on to London (and later back to the sunny South Coast), to work as a marketing executive. Years later in 2009, she had her first child, Bethany, later followed by her son Joseph. Heidi had a choice, she could return to her work

in marketing, or she could rise to the challenge of pursuing her true passion: writing. As a child she longed to write. Hour upon hour would be spent creating stories, poems, even magazines; all fabricated from her imagination. Truly letting her creativity run wild. She officially left her job in 2012, and a year later her application for a place on the ‘Curtis Brown Creative online Novel Writing Course’ was accepted. Joined by a select other 14 writers, they came together in an online space with the hope of improving their writing and completing their own novels. A new door had been opened, a door, which allowed Heidi to pursue her dream and still be able to watch her two beautiful children grow and develop. With the help and support of Clare Christian and Heather Boisseau of Red Door publishing, Heidi has finally fulfilled her dream of seeing her first book in print. Her story is that rare tale of ‘dreams actually coming true’. How utterly inspiring, to have had a passion for something from such a young age, to now be practicing it, even after initially diverting down an alternative career path. What is even more motivating, is that much like the great authors before her, it didn’t come easy. This isn’t actually Heidi’s first novel. She had put her heart and soul into a previous book, and was subject to a long line of rejections before finding the publisher that shared her vision, and could lead her to success. We are privileged to have met such a talented writer, and we cannot wait to finish reading her book! Beneath The Surface is due out 24 March 2016. Pre-order your copy today. Find it on Amazon.co.uk – Search ‘Beneath The Surface by Heidi Perks’. Heidi will be doing a book signing on Easter Saturday (26th March) at Waterstones, Castlepoint from 11am to 3pm. Keep up to date with the latest news from Heidi Perks by visiting her website or following her on Facebook and Twitter: Website: www.heidiperksauthor.co.uk Facebook: Search Heidi Perks (Author) Twitter: @heidiperks1

A gripping debut novel in which some secrets simply can’t remain beneath the surface. Intrigued? Read the blurb here: I don’t know where you are… I don’t know what I’ve done… Teenager Abigail Ryder is devastated when she gets home from school to find her family gone. Nothing makes sense. Things are missing from the house and her stepsisters’ room is completely empty. But the police think she’s trouble, and when grandmother Eleanor tells her to forget them all and move on, there’s no choice other than face the future – alone. Fourteen years on, Abi and Adam are a happy couple on the verge of parenthood. But when the past comes back to haunt Abi, the only way forward is to go back and uncover the truth – and reveal the dreadful secrets a mother has been hiding all these years.

Rapid Growth for Bournemouth’s Purple Business

PR Man About Town A vibrant start to spring! Director of one of the South’s leading PR Agencies, Darren Northeast PR, shares news and upcoming events in Dorset and beyond. We are well into the midst of March and Bournemouth and Poole is certainly full of life as the first birds of spring are starting to sing! My team and I were recently privileged to attend the start of Bournemouth Chamber of Trade of Commerce’s centenary celebrations, which was kicked off in style with a spectacular Rio carnival-themed party. To reach 100 years as chamber this month is such a fabulous achievement and it has been an honour to be a Patron of the chamber for a number of years now. In more good news, it was also fantastic to recently read that Dorsetbased charity, Macmillan Caring Locally, have reached a landmark £100,000 worth of fundraising as a result of their now-renowned ‘White Christmas Dip’. Macmillan Caring Locally is a charity which is very close to my heart and I am so pleased to hear this great fundraising event has raised so much money for their Macmillan Unit. You may have noticed that our sunny seaside town, Bournemouth, has been receiving some great exposure in the national press recently, with articles in the Sunday Mirror, Telegraph.co.uk and the London Economic to name just a few! I have said it before and I’ll say it again – Bournemouth is truly a town on the rise and it’s great to see the national media recognise this. Bournemouth is also being celebrated on a local level as Bournemouth-based graffiti artist, Rick Walker, has created a stunning street art mural celebrating Bournemouth’s vibrant creative and sporting community. The colourful mural has been particularly inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson’s Jekyll & Hyde, which was written in Bournemouth, as well as modern AFC Bournemouth hero, Tommy Elphick. Speaking of the ‘Cherries’ Captain, the guys in the office are all particularly pleased with how well our home team is currently doing. Following our recent run of victories, we are all keeping our fingers crossed that the success continues. DNPR are wishing Eddie Howe and the boys the best of luck for the rest of the season! Lastly, I was thrilled to recently take part in a charity fashion show for Canford Cliffs-based Company, Fox Tailoring. As well as showcasing their fantastic tailored men’s wear in aid of Julia’s House, the event also marked the launch of Fox Tailoring’s ‘Lady Fox’ range of women’s tailored clothing. So for all ladies out there, if you’re looking for unique and glamorous clothing to help you stand out from the crowd, make sure to check out Fox Tailoring! As always, thanks for taking the time to cast your eyes over this month’s edition of ‘PR Man About Town’ and make sure to catch us again in April!

Braving the seas, fundraisers reach £100,000 milestone for charity Encouraging people to brave icy seas on Christmas Day, the Macmillan White Christmas Dip has now succeeded in raising a total of £100,000 for Macmillan Caring Locally since the fundraising event’s conception in 2008. The Macmillan Unit at Christchurch Hospital provides specialist palliative care for cancer patients in South East Dorset and South West Hampshire. Last December over 750 people gathered to take part in the annual fundraising event. Tom Baker, founder of the Macmillan White Christmas Dip has commented: “It’s incredible to celebrate a total of £100,000 raised for Macmillan Caring Locally.

FIT SKIN…

The latest beauty tips and treatments from the owner of Chic Beauty Salon & Academy, Sophie Tamagna

Just as it is super important to maintain a strong, healthy, fit and flexible body, so too it’s imperative for your skin to enjoy optimum fitness. Ensure it does, and you can enjoy radiant, clear and younger, fresher looking skin always. Here are some simple daily and weekly tips to get your glow on.

Cut down on … • Smoking. Actually, give it up altogether. Nothing spoils your skin faster than cigarettes, which are loaded with poisons, toxins, nicotine and chemicals. Each inhalation will flush these nasty’s right through your blood stream, and deliver them directly to your skin cells and surrounding tissues, eroding collagen and elastin, which makes skin weak and causes it to sag. They also constrict a blood vessel, which means skin cells are starved of oxygen, and your complexion quickly takes on a dull, grey and fatigued appearance. • Alcohol. More than two alcoholic beverages a day can put a strain on your liver, which means that lymphatic drainage and toxin removal is compromised, both of which will negatively affect the clarity and radiance of your skin. Choose your alcoholic beverage wisely, too. Red wine is a good choice, as it’s got plenty of antioxidants to help build skin cell strength. Just remember – no more than two glasses each day! • Caffeine. As much as we all love a great cup of coffee or tea, it’s best to stick to one a day, maximum. It can be dehydrating to skin, not to mention make you anxious, thanks to the stimulating nature of caffeine. For each cup of coffee or tea, drink three glasses of filtered water. Your skin will thank you for it.

Get more of … • Exercise. At least three to four cardiovascular workouts of around 30 – 45 minutes each week are essential for healthy functioning of your heart and lungs, and for a healthy glow to your skin, • Water. Self-explanatory, really. Drinking at least three litres of water daily will help flush toxins from your body and hydrate your skin from the

CHIC Beauty Salon & Academy of Beauty

inside. It will also help improve energy levels, which will make you more inclined to exercise. • Sleep. It’s not called beauty sleep for nothing. Eight hours sleep a night is essential for skin to really get the most of its nightly rest and repair functions. You’ll wake up less puffy and with a more clarified complexion. Blueberries are said to be the greatest food source for antioxidants – they offer anti-aging prevention that’s too good not to try.

Every day … • Cleanse morning and night. Never let this slip by. Cleanse twice at night – once for make-up and the second time to remove the day’s debris and any pollution or nasty’s that could be lodged on the skin’s surface. In the morning, apply a thick layer of your favourite cleanser and leave it on for ten minutes. Most cleansers contain active ingredients, so it’s a nice way to multi-task, using it as a mask. Then simply wash it off in the shower. You’ll really notice the pep up it provides to your skin. • Give yourself a facial massage. When applying your daily or nightly moisturiser, take five to ten minutes to gently, but firmly, massage the cream into your skin. The massaging action will help with lymphatic drainage in the facial areas (read: less puffiness and fewer breakouts), and it will improve blood flow to the cells, which in turn will boost luminosity to the skin. • Use an eye cream. The skin around your eyes is finer than that on the rest of your face and as such can only absorb so much product. Using a thicker, inappropriate moisturiser can cause millia (the tiny white bumps that appear under the skin). Find an eye cream that suits you and gently pad it around the orbital area twice daily as part of your skin care regime. • Apply a broad spectrum, high SPF sunscreen. Even in the depths of winter. Your skin comes under constant assault from UV rays, which break down collagen and elastin

Two to three times a week • Exfoliate. Sloughing away that dead layer of skin cells and built up debris on the skin’s surface will better enable absorption of the anti-ageing and skin nurturing ingredients in your treatment serums and moisture creams. Be sure to choose a gentle formula that won’t damage skin with its buffing action. Smooth, rounded spheres are a great choice, and remember, you don’t need to scrub – simply gently massage. The beads will do the scrubbing work for you. • Apply a face mask. No matter what your skin type – normal, oily- combination or dry – a weekly face mask will help hydrate, normalise and keep your complexion looking its most radiant. Take half an hour to relax and let your mask work, then rinse away well using a warm, damp facial towel, before applying your day or night cream.

Every month • Book in for a professional facial. Aside from the indulgent pampering that you know you deserve, your beauty therapist will be able to deliver deeper and more effective treatments than you can at home. • Consider professional deep exfoliation. Treatments such as the Dermalogica Multi Vitamin Peel, or Microdermabrasion, can deliver intense exfoliation in your lunch hour. They are not painful, there is no down time and you can go straight back to work afterwards. Skin takes on a clear, healthy, luminous glow and any treatment products you apply afterwards will be better absorbed and have a great effect! Book your Facial Treatment at Chic now. And don’t forget … everything you eat or drink will have an effect on the way your skin looks – so enjoy and indulgence every now and then, but for the most part, try to follow and maintain a healthy, well balanced diet that includes plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables and lots of water!
