RESEARCH SHOWS HOW BUY-TO-LET INVESTORS HAVE NO BUSINESS PLAN Independent research commissioned by specialist property investment business, Platinum Property Partners (PPP), has found that more than half of buy-to-let investors in the UK have no business plan. Only 7% have a five-year plan and an overwhelming majority of 84% do not factor void periods and maintenance costs into their predicted return on investment. The purpose of the research was to investigate how efficiently UK private investors are managing their investment in property, and whether they are on track to achieve their financial goals from it. The findings show that lack of planning, and misunderstanding of income and costs involved in property investment, could mean

that landlords are not maximising the short or long-term profitability of their buy-to-let property portfolios. The full report is due to be published by PPP on May 17th and will be available to download from platinumpropertypartners.co.uk. PPP is a successful property investment business that enables both novice and seasoned property investors to build a sustainable, profitable and life changing

portfolio. The company has developed a tried and tested system that maximises rental income from specialist buy-to-let shared housing for young professionals, as well as benefit from the usual long-term capital growth. For more information on how Platinum Property Partners can help you maximise your income from specialist buy-to-let properties, please call 01202 652101 and quote ‘House 2’.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT BATH When choosing a new bath, usually it is the shape and size of the room which dictates what sort of bath you buy.

Calabar Bath, shown in Farrow & Ball Charlotte’s Locks paint

BC DESIGNS-BOAT BATH Cast from solid aluminum, with a hand-polished finish, this show-stopping boat bath would make a glamorous addition to any bathroom.

You will need to think about how you will be using the bathtub, above all, it should be comfortable. Consider the shape, size and depth of the bath, do you have space for a freestanding bath or limited space where a shower over the bath would work best. Freestanding baths remain a popular choice either sitting directly onto the floor or mounted on wooden or chrome supports. Freestanding baths can either stand alone, be raised on a platform or be located along a wall with the length going along a wall but aesthetically they need space at each end to show off their contours. Moving a bath away from the walls also has implications as far as weight distribution is concerned. You may need to check your bathroom flooring to ensure the floor can cope with the weight. It’s not just a question of how much the bath weighs when it’s empty but when it’s full – water + person.

34-36 Seamoor Road, Westbourne, BH4 9AS 01202 766886 www.ripples.ltd.uk

CALABAR BATH Create a stunning focal point in your bathroom with the Calabar Freestanding Bath in daring orange - highly dramatic and extremely contemporary. For a truly personalised design to your bath you can select from a range of RAL colours for the outer to contrast the white inner. The lighting you choose can have a huge effect on the mood of your bathroom, lighting in a bathroom can be quite different from any other room in the house. It can create drama and ambience, set a mood and make the bathroom a haven, a place to unwind at the end of a stressful day. Consider light “layers”- light from different sources which are controlled separately to create different effects. A dimmer switch is a simple yet effective way to control the amount of light within the bathroom. Available from Ripples

ADVICE

THE POWER OF VIDEO MARKETING With HOUSE Magazine now producing promotional films for our clients we talk to our very own film maker Steve about why film is invaluable when promoting your brand.

How many times did you watch a video this week? Was it a video forwarded by a colleague, or a clip a friend shared on facebook, or something daft or thought provoking that’s trending on reddit, Pinterest or YouTube? Then you already know about the power of video. Or perhaps you’re one of the very few who doesn’t regularly expose themselves to video marketing, whether it’s selfies with stars, how-to videos on the minute details of obscure hobbies, or slick trailers for new products and services. If so you are in the minority.

In addition, we have a natural tendency to respond to motion – our innate sense of self-preservation and curiosity causes us to follow any moving object with our eyes, which causes the brain to investigate the movement. As a result, movement on a screen doubles the level of attention that we give to it.

The reach and appeal of video marketing is undoubted. 46% of people surveyed said they’d be more likely to ask for information about products or services after seeing them in online videos. And that’s not just a survey statistic. The average internet user spends 88% more time on websites that feature videos. Sites with video gain two to three times more monthly visitors.

Search engines too, are ‘hardwired’, through the algorithms that govern their rankings, to respond to video. Having video on the landing page of your website can double its chances of appearing on the first page of Google and video anywhere on your website can increase search engine traffic by 150%.

There are two this powerful own psychology the other is the engines operate.

reasons for effect: our is one and way search

Humans are hard-wired to respond to faces and movement. In 1992 scientists discovered the fusiform face area (FFA) which is part of the occipital lobe of the brain dedicated to recognising faces. As a result our natural instincts to look at, and respond to, faces can be triggered by seeing people in videos – our interest is engaged and we react positively to the visual stimulus.

So now you know the cold, hard facts about video marketing. But there’s another reason that it works.

For small to medium sized businesses, video is the swiftest and surest way to become recognised. Video marketing is effective because it has passion and heart, which allows any business no matter how niche, quirky or complex to express itself to customers. A one-woman outfit selling personalised iPod covers, five guys creating financial solutions, or a firm of thirty people making sofa cushions, are all just as likely to reach a huge audience as the giants of video like Apple and Virgin. All it takes is creativity, flair and a good product to bring to market. There are two things about video marketing that might surprise you. The first is the cost – high calibre video marketing is now cost effective for even the smallest enterprise. The second is that, unlike other publicity systems, video marketing has its own inbuilt distribution mechanism – with the advent of YouTube and other sharing sites, video has already become the most shared marketing method, ever.

If you’re ready to bring the dynamic potential of video marketing to your business, or talk about any print advertising call us and to explore how we can help. Call our creative team on 01202 200930 to find out more.

We design and build your luxury furniture exclusively for you.

ASK THE EXPERT ASK THE EXPERT Neil McKeon Planning Consultant Are you taking full advantage of Permitted Development Rights? There have been so many changes to permitted development rights over the last couple of years that it can be hard to keep track of them all. Developers would be wise to refresh themselves with the new rights introduced in May last year. Arguably the most significant of these permitted development rights is the potentially lucrative opportunity to secure a change of use of offices to residential dwellings. The new right applies to the whole of England except a number of excluded areas – these are largely in London but include a number of areas in East Hampshire District but no other parts of Dorset or Hampshire are affected. This permitted development right only applies until 30 May 2016 and crucially the change of use must have occurred before that date. The other limitations are that the building has to have been last in use for Use Class B1 (a) (offices) and is not a listed building or scheduled monument. There is a prior approval notice procedure to give the Council the opportunity to ensure there would be no harm to highway safety and no risks from contamination or flooding. The right is for change of use only and any physical works which change the external appearance of the building such as changes to windows or doors would need to be applied for in the usual way once the residential use has been confirmed. So far the take-up seems to have been relatively slow. Things are beginning to pick up as landowners spot the opportunities and perhaps leases come to an end. We have recently secured Prior Approval consent for the largest office (B1) to residential (C3) permitted development consent in Bournemouth. The consent is for the transformation of a redundant 7-storey office building in the Lansdowne area into 191 residential studio units. We actually believe it could be the largest number of residential units achieved under the prior approval process in England. In this specific case there were clear financial advantages to using the permitted development right – for example a saving of almost £74,000 on the application fee, over £500,000 on payable contributions, as well as over £1m saved on affordable housing. But most importantly Bournemouth’s current restrictive planning policies would not have allowed this change of use if planning permission had been required. We consider that there must be many more opportunities to achieve a change of use which otherwise would not be allowed – for example in the countryside many barns have been converted into offices in locations where a dwelling wouldn’t usually be allowed.

Remember that time is running out on this opportunity so if you own an office building, that you wish to convert to residential dwellings, then do give us a call on 01202 585524 or email me on neil@puretownplanning.co.uk for a free no obligation planning consultation.

Matt Gowing Insurance Adviser with Alan & Thomas Insurance Group

COULD YOUR BUSINESS SURVIVE A COMPENSATION CLAIM? A landmark personal injury compensation payout is still making headlines more than a year after it was awarded, which has led us to advise local businesses on the need to urgently review their liability insurance protection. In December 2012, seventeen year old student Agnes Collier was awarded a record breaking £23 million personal injury award after she lost the use of her legs and most of the function in her arms as a result of a motor accident in November 2009. A bright young woman with excellent prospects, she now needs 24 hour care. Courts awarded her a lump sum of £7.25 million and £270,000 per year for the rest of her life. Employers are required by law to have employers’ liability cover of no less than £5 million although the vast majority of insurers provide £10 million of cover as standard. We are recommending businesses consider increasing this and their public and products liability cover to no less than a total of £20 million. Although the claim in question was the result of a motor accident, the same award would have applied if the claimant had been injured in an office, a factory or on a farm. The settlement is for injuries and subsequent care and does not relate to the circumstances that led to them. We are recommending that all business owners reflect on what would happen if their business was faced with a claim that exceeds the amount of cover they currently have? The reality is fairly simple; the business will almost certainly be responsible for the shortfall, which could ultimately mean financial ruin. Premiums will vary from business to business depending on size, sector and turnover but they may well be less than people would think so we would advise businesses to contact us to obtain a quotation on their behalf. That way, business owners are able to make the most informed decision. Alan & Thomas are Dorset’s largest independent broker. They specialise in all types of commercial insurance and work with the UK’s leading insurers to design bespoke insurance schemes that can be tailored to the individual needs of each business.

ASK THE EXPERT Harvey Reid Senior Partner Laceys Solicitors

Neighbour disputes Neighbour disputes are notorious for running up huge legal costs. Here are some points to help you avoid these sort of disputes: • When you sell your property you will answer a form called the Property Information Form. If you fill those in incorrectly or give a misleading answer the buyer may make a claim for compensation. • Boundaries as shown on the Land Registry are general boundaries only. They are not necessarily definitive. If a query or potential dispute arises, you should immediately offer to share the costs of appointing a joint boundary expert to determine the boundaries. You should also offer mediation. A court process remains available in the last resort but can be hugely expensive. • If you do any underground work within 6 metres of the neighbouring building, you may have to serve a notice on your neighbour giving them warning of what you are intending to do. This is called a Party Wall Act notice. You will need the assistance of a Chartered Surveyor. • If someone appears to be occupying land belonging to you, you should take it up immediately with them. You may have to take action to remove them. If those people remain on the land long enough and comply with various requirements, they can acquire title to the land. • If anyone goes across your land for any purpose, you need to prevent a right of way arising. You should immediately post notices saying that this is a permissive right to enable you to block it up whenever you like, or you should block it up straight away anyway to prevent people using it. • Branches overhanging a boundary can be lopped off so far as they over overhang and the branches given back to the neighbour, but you should discuss it with them first. • You should have trees on your land inspected annually by a tree expert to remove dangerous branches and advise whether tree roots might be penetrating the neighbour’s drains. That will prevent actions for compensation for damage done. • Always check whether or not a tree is subject to a tree preservation order before doing any work to it. You should always discuss these problems with your neighbour first before starting any precipitate action. It is always best to take expert and legal advice.

ASK THE EXPERTS Bournecoast Property Agents Buy-to-Let Holiday Homes: Setting Your Objectives When purchasing a holiday home as a buy-to-let you must set some clear objectives and decide why you are choosing this style of investment. Firstly you need to choose the reason you are purchasing a holiday home: 1. Increased rental income and capital growth. 2. You would like a holiday home to use yourself and would like it to cover it’s costs or ideally make an income whilst your are not using it. It can be a combination of both of these reasons, but normally one reason would still at least slightly outweigh the other. If you are a property investor looking for the best return on your money consider the following: • Leave your emotions at home, this is about profit and capital growth – it is not about finding somewhere you would like to stay in. • Choose your target market and then find a property that suits their specific requirements – this will help maximise occupancy and the return on your investment. • Carefully consider the location you are buying to establish the potential for future capital growth and the opportunity for re-selling your investment at a later date. • Do your sums, work out the yields and returns you can expect and then put an offer in which matches the return you want to achieve. • Use a local holiday buy-to-let specialist agent to advise you on what potential target markets there are, where the good locations are to invest in and to help with rental income forecasts. To buy a holiday home for your own use you should consider the following: • Ensure you choose a location which has facilities and services that you and your family will enjoy. • Establish if the rental income will cover your costs, so in essence you end up with a “free” holiday home, but do not over focus on the yield • Remember, it is about a lifestyle choice and although the property may grow in value over time you need to choose the right property for you rather than focus on the potential capital growth. • Before you make the purchase check with a local holiday letting agency that there is a market who will book the type of property you have chosen. The overall message is that you must consider your investment carefully whilst making the purchase. In any buy-to-let investment knowledge is essential so always use a local buy-to-let agency to guide you through the purchase process. Bournecoast can offer free advice and guidance, in relation to buy-to-let purchases, to assist you in achieving the best buy-to-let investment possible within your budget. After all, the more successful the property is, and the higher the occupancy, the more income you achieve as a landlord and, naturally, the more income Bournecoast achieve as your agent.

www.propertymoveonline.com The owners of PropertyMoveOnline have a diverse rental portfolio, and appreciate the value of a solid tenant. We believe the management of a property is best done for a price that suits our landlords, therefore PropertyMoveOnline are offering you a...

6% managed fee or ÂŁ150 let only fee This includes reference checks, plus a face-to-face check in check out, no VAT. Our team will market your property online and conduct viewings as you would expect. We provide a template Tenancy Agreement which Landlords can adopt to their requirements, taking the appropriate legal advice from their solicitor. We believe this service offers the lowest cost option to both Landlord and Tenant, therefore creating the highest possible yield for the Landlord.

How We Started PropertyMoveOnline was created when experienced estate agent, Louis Vafa, joined forces with Reve Developments, a niche property development company. Both parties have enjoyed considerable success in London and the South of England, and it was evident early on they shared a joint vision of what an Online Estate Agent should be looking to achieve for its customers. Analysing each aspect of the sales process we have created an offer which we believe is attractive to the astute seller.

Why Sold STC does not mean sold! We know that buying or selling your home is stressful, but did you know that in England, approximately 1 in 3 agreed offers fail to result in a sale completion. PropertyMoveOnline believes this situation is caused by the lack of estate agencies employeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s skills or financial motivation to properly and continually qualify a buyer, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get us wrong, there are some fantastic agents out there, but to the ones that think the job is done when SOLD STC, you are wrong. Nothing is sold until completed!

ASK THE EXPERT

What is the domestic RHI? The Government has recently confirmed the start of the domestic RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive). This allows people who have had renewable heating products installed to claim money back towards their installation. It’s aim is to promote the use of renewable heat, cut carbon emissions and help the UK meet its EU renewable energy targets. Although the scheme has been designed mainly for people living off of the gas grid it is open to all. It is funded by public money which has already been allocated from the budget and so, contrary to popular belief this will not impact people’s fuel bills. In order to qualify for the scheme you must have had the works installed by an MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) approved contractor using an MCS approved product with the installation commissioned after the 15th July 2009. The property will also need to have an Energy Performance Certificate along with a Green Deal Assessment. Should the Green Deal Assessment state you need either loft or cavity wall insulation then you will need to rectify this before making an application. There are 4 eligible heating systems; air source heat pumps, ground source heat pumps, biomass boilers and solar thermal panels (panels which produce hot water). Biomass and heat pumps must provide space heating (heating rooms in a house) or space and water heating. Space heating must be delivered via a liquid medium, such as a radiator or under floor heating. Hot water heating is where heat is generated to supply hot water for domestic purposes. Solar thermal systems must produce heat solely for domestic hot water. Heat pumps used to heat swimming pools are not included. Payments are calculated using the annual heating and hot water demand figure as estimated on your Energy Performance Certificate for biomass boilers, air source and ground source heat pumps while solar thermal undergoes a specific MCS calculation. Each technology type has a different tariff rate applied to it which is then multiplied by your estimated annual usage figure which will give you your annual figure. Payments will be made quarterly with the tariffs lasting for 7 years increasing in line with the Retail Price Index. New build properties are exempt from the scheme although self build is included.

Leigh Bartlett, associate solicitor at Humphries Kirk advises on the pros and cons of having solar panels on the roof of your home. These days, solar panels are a common sight on the roof tops of homes as we drive down the street. To some, solar panels are attractive as they provide ‘free’ electricity to the homeowner, giving them the ability to ‘sell back’ surplus electricity. This enables the initial cost of the investment to be paid off in around seven to 10 years. However, due to the reductions on the feed-in-tariffs available, buying solar panels has become less attractive. As an alternative homeowners can rent out their roof to approved providers. This makes the installation ‘free’ and the homeowner has the benefit of ‘free’ electricity for the household. Any surplus electricity is then retained by the installer to sell back to the utility providers. Whilst this takes away the pain of the upfront investment, a separate lease agreement is required between the householder and the installer to keep the equipment on the roof. Such leases have to be in place for at least 20 years and, due to their commercial nature, are effectively ‘business leases’. For a householder renting solar panels, the following should be carefully considered:

Business lease A business lease provides additional security to a business tenant and doesn’t automatically conclude on the ‘end date’, but will continue until one of the parties serves a notice on the other to renew the lease or bring it to an end. However, a homeowner can only rely on certain ‘grounds’ to bring the lease to an end.

Planning permission Roof solar panels are likely to be permitted without planning permission. However, there are exceptions to this rule depending on the type of property i.e. listed buildings, the area in which the property is situated i.e. conservation areas and the size of the equipment to be installed.

Building regulations

Example: Annual heat load (as taken from EPC)

18,000kWh

Biomass tariff rate at start of scheme

12.2p

Total annual RHI payment (heat load x tariff rate)

£2,196

Quarterly payment

£549

If you are buying a new house or are planning to make changes to your current heating system, now is a very good time to consider renewable heating. For anyone wanting to help cut gas bills you could consider Solar Thermal which will contribute to your water heating throughout the year even in the depths of winter. If you are on oil or LPG gas and want a cleaner cheaper way to heat your home then why not consider a Heat Pump or biomass boiler.

If you would like to find out more information on Renewable Energy or the RHI then please contact one of the team @ Low Carbon Energy Centre or call us on 01202 888561.

www.lowcarbonenergycentre.co.uk 86

Leigh Bartlett Associate Solicitor

These relate to the structural capability of the roof and also the electrical installation for the solar panels. Fire safety and building regulations may also apply.

Restrictive covenants and leasehold properties Many properties are affected by restrictive covenants that prohibit what works can be carried out at a property and whether or not additions can be made without further consent from a third party.

Your mortgage and future sale If there is a current mortgage on the property, the lender’s consent must be obtained before entering into the lease agreement.

For more information on solar panels please contact Leigh Bartlett, associate solicitor at Humphries Kirk on 01202 715815, or email l.bartlett@hklaw.eu

ASK THE FUNDING EXPERT

Q A

Why MSP Capital? Despite property prices having hit a new high and the need for homes becoming increasingly “desperate”, the task of obtaining funds for property development/refurbishment is still as difficult, time-consuming and constraining as ever. High Street Lenders’ arduous requirements can lead to a lengthy approval process and could ultimately hamper the developer’s ability to:a) purchase a potential development opportunity; and/or b) release sufficient equity to enable other development opportunities being realised.

Paul Miracca, Director, MSP Capital

MSP Capital is advantageously positioned as it has the ability to provide a significantly larger percentage of capital to its clients as well as release funds faster and with less hassle than the High Street. It also has more flexibility in its decision-making capacity, for example, being able to spread equity across a number of projects. Example A developer owning land with planning permission to build a number of houses came to MSP Capital asking us to fund the build. Not only were we able to fund the build but we could provide up to an additional 70% of the land value. These additional funds enabled the developer to buy another site, which we were subsequently also able to fund the build on. As we had assessed the security on the original deal we were able to provide the additional facility within 48 hours. This speed gave the developer a real commercial advantage. Land Value on Day 1

£1,000,000

70 % Land Loan available for equity release

£700,000 (£500,000 used to acquire 2nd site)

Build Loan

£950,000

GDV

£2,650,000

With MSP Capital the developer was able to access funds within a very short space of time and was able to spread his equity across two projects when the High Street lenders would only fund one. Ultimately the bank facility came through, but this was 6 months later. To find out how we can help fund your development, contact MSP Capital on 01202 743400.

We’re all suffering from a lack of sunshine. And while there’s no magic wand to change the murky outlook, you can set the forecast to ‘sunny’ by embracing the brightest trend on the decor horizon - yellow. Warm, golden sandy tones, reminiscent of sun-drenched beaches, through to vibrant canary shades can’t fail to banish the gloom and bring light and cheer to dull rooms. “After a prolonged period of cold, wintry weather, no other colour brings such an instant injection of warmth and sun to the home than carefully chosen shades of yellow,” says Rishi Subeathar, founder

of eico, the environmentallyfriendly paint specialists. If you’re wedded to neutrals and even the thought of yellow has you wincing and reaching for your sunglasses, it could be time to overturn your colour prejudice. “It’s true that yellow needs to be used with care so that it doesn’t overwhelm, or look as though you’ve covered a room in custard!” acknowledges Subeathar. “But all its shades are mood-enhancing, from sunflower brights to softer buttery pastels. There’s a yellow shade to suit most discerning tastes and interiors.”

Wild Primrose, Malt Chocolate, and Absolute White, from the Dulux Paint Mixing range, £14.89 www.dulux.co.uk Bizz Egg Lanterns in Yellow & White, £49 www.gong.co.uk

Soft buttery yellows are more in sympathy with the decor style of a period or country home and will conjure a restful and peaceful atmosphere

YELLOW SHAKE-UP Making a statement in a room with a splash of yellow is one of the easiest ways to create a chic, modern setting. “Paint a feature wall in a bold, bright citrus and then balance its intensity by using grey-based neutrals or subtle whites on the other walls,” suggests Subeathar. “If that’s too daring for your taste, simply use a deep yellow shade for alcoves to conjure depth and richness.”

Tania Isaacs, Director Total Property Marketing The benefits of a non High Street Agent More and more companies are springing up offering to sell your property for a fraction of the cost of a high street estate agent. So what are the benefits and what are the pitfalls of both?

Fees A traditional high street agent will typically charge between 1% and 1.5%, payable on completion of the sale. There is a huge variety of payment options for the online agents and also the fixed fee agents such as TPM. With TPM you have a number of options, from as little as £0 upfront to just 0.5% on completion, which is a significant saving on the traditional high street agent.

What is the catch? In reality, there is no catch as long as you are comfortable in conducting viewings yourself. At TPM we are happy to provide you with tips on making each viewing a positive experience. The internet has become ever more important in house sales so an online agent can list your properties on the websites such as Rightmove and Zoopla. It is key that the photography and floor plans are of the highest standard. I founded TPM in 2007 providing EPC’s, HIPS and top quality Floor Plans to high end agents, so I am well aware of the necessity for top quality, professional marketing. The main reason an online or fixed fee agent can offer lower fees, is that there is no need for a high street office. In addition, if you are prepared to conduct your own viewings, you can save significant sums. We believe that you are the best person to sell the benefits of your home because you know the reasons you bought the property in the first place. One key element of TPM is that each property is allocated to a Property Manager to chase through the sale to completion, remaining in constant contact with all parties. Similarly, all viewings are booked through TPM and prospective buyers are chased for feedback, which is provided to our vendors within 24 hours wherever possible.

What about the property value? It is important for the online or fixed fee agent to have some knowledge of the area. A large national online agent recently advised a client in Wimborne they would be sending someone from Cardiff to value the house! Here at TPM we have local agents that have local knowledge and can provide the latest information regarding marketing prices and sold prices of local properties so you know the value of your home. At TPM we offer the benefits of a local, professional high street agent without the expense of a high street location. Our professional marketing of your home is the key to success and we look forward to providing you with a free no obligation valuation.

ASK THE LETTINGS EXPERT Sharon Canning Move On Rentals

SINGLE PROPERTY LANDLORDS CRUCIAL TO THE PRS Single property landlords are playing a crucial part in the private rented sector according to a recent report from Countrywide. Looking at their own stock of some 65,000 properties they noted that 93% of landlords owned just 1 property and accounted for 81% of their private rental stock. Whilst 0.7% owned 5 or more properties. This is higher than the 2010 stats from the Department & communities’ Private Landlord report that quoted 78% of private landlords owned one property. Although the stats are different they are still considered high and are expected to continue to grow. The ‘baby boom’ generation currently going through their retirement years (or approaching their retirement) are looking at alternative ways of investing their money as the return on their hard earned cash is not achieving a favourable return in a savings account and the buy to let sector is looking very attractive.

How Do I Create a Gallery Wall? Q: “Love a good gallery wall. What are your top pointers for doing it right? Mrs Collier A: Great question! As with so much in interior design, it’s a balance of art and science. First, let’s chat about the science part. The best way to start is by deciding what you want to use to anchor the layout. I usually vary the sizes of the artwork, especially on a large wall, but I like having two or three large, important pieces to help focus the eye - and they usually tend to hover towards the middle of the gallery space. As for the art portion, this is where it gets fun. I usually design a gallery wall based on the artwork I’m using. If I’m working with a larger collection in multiple types of art or media, I’ll vary the frame styles and even mix different finishes to make the wall really swirl with excitement. With artwork that is more cohesive, I’ll make sure that the frame styles and sizes reflect the theme. You can even expand on the gallery wall idea by hanging a series of similar images in the exact same size in a grid; pictured below.

The new Mortgage Market Review (MMR) rules that came in to play at the end of April, is already showing signs of lenders making the Buy to let mortgages an attractive proposition with some fantastic rates (mainly because they are not governed under the same FSA rules). One lender (at time of writing this) was offering a 35 year mortgage term which could be taken out at the age of 70! The private rented sector has seen phenomenal growth between 2000 and 2013, by the single landlords and existing landlords expanding their portfolios. The projection for demand in rental is expected to grow considerably over the next five years with 2020 still showing signs of a shortage of property available. Even with the latest deal under the Government £1bn Build to Rent scheme the shortfall in properties being built has still some way to recover. The number of privately rented households is projected to continue to grow as the number of home owners and social renters continues to shrink, indicating for the foreseeable future the UK will remain a nation of landlords.

CVS – ARE THEY STILL THE BEST ASSESSMENT OF SUITABILITY? CVs have not moved with the times. Although we now all benefit greatly from technological advances and social media, the CVs we receive today still look the same as they did 20 years ago. Why is this? Is it because two to three pages of text outlining someone’s personal profile, career background and qualifications are still the best of way of ascertaining an individual’s suitability for a job/company? Personally I think not….there has to be a better way! Employers and Recruiters should work in partnership to drive this change forward for the sake of our time, desk space and trees! Not only have CVs not changed, many continue to be of poor quality. I see around 10 CVs a day (from a diverse range of sectors and seniority levels) and the level of spelling, grammar and readability is quite shocking (in a bad way!)….. even at senior management and director level. From an employer’s point of view a CV should make the candidate come alive and stand out from the crowd. Whilst it’s not easy to achieve the wow factor on 2D A4 paper these days, hiring managers want to see some imagination, good use of key skills and achievements….and above all copy and grammar that is correct and laid out in a visually appealing and succinct manner. As a Recruiter, I would far rather engage with prospects on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter to assess their cultural and personality fit for a job/company, than reading countless pages of text on CVs, and I’m sure that the majority of employers and hiring managers feel the same. If you’re reading this and thinking about your own CV, I recommend you get it spelling/grammar checked by at least three people, make it no longer than two pages long, use bullet-points not lengthy text paragraphs and ensure the top half of page one really highlights your key skills, attributes & achievements.

Help! I Have a Deposit Dispute This is every landlord worst headache. The tenancy has ended and the property is left in a sorry state. What to do next? Whether the deposit was protected with the DPS, TDS or any of the other deposit schemes the underlying principle is the same: The deposit money belongs to the tenant. Following on this principle the landlord needs to prove that he is entitled to some of this money. The process by which the claim is evaluated and a decision is made is called ‘adjudication’. Each deposit scheme has its own team of adjudicators which will look at the evidence provided and make a decision. The key for landlords is to provide the strongest possible evidence to support their claim. Here are some key pointers when submitting a deposit claim: • Provide a copy of the Tenancy Agreement – This has to state clearly what the deposit can be used for. • Provide a copy of the Check-In Inventory – This must be a comprehensive and detailed schedule of condition, ideally with video or photographic evidence, compiled by an independent professional and signed by the tenants. • Provide a copy of the Check-Out Report – This must highlight the discrepancies that were found after the tenants moved out. Again an independently compiled report with strong visual evidence will bear much more weight in front of the adjudicator. • Provide copy of invoices and quotes – Showing the work that was done to restore the property to its original condition. In addition, invoices of work carried out and items bought before the tenancy started will also help (i.e. invoice for new carpets fitted before tenancy started). • Remember to account for ‘fair wear and tear’ – Items have a life expectancy. Do account for this in your claim. For example, a brand new carpet of average quality is expected to last around 6 years. • Remember the principle of ‘betterment’ – On the said carpet, if it was rendered unfit for purpose after 2 years and you had to replace it with a new one, you cannot claim the full replacement cost. More on this on next month’s article…. It is also very important to remember that adjudicator’s decisions are final. Therefore it is critical to ensure your claim is well presented and compelling. If you need any help with a deposit dispute please contact us for a free no-obligation chat.

Why not give your property a facelift? Absolute stone and brick use a DOFF steam cleaning system based cleaning system. It’s unlike any other steam system and can achieve temperatures 150°C. The DOFF system will remove dirt, paint, moss, algae, fungi, some graffiti, soot and smoke damage from almost any surface. The system uses steam so there is no need to use a chemical biocide during the removal process and the surfaces are dry within minutes. Unlike jet washing, DOFF uses steam rather than preasure to clean so it wont damage the surface being cleaned and also the steam kills any moss, fungi bio matter so the surface stays cleaner for much longer.

ASK THE EXPERT Tony Peters Planit Mortgages Your local mortgage adviser Would it surprise you to know that insurance companies pay out more money due to sick children than they pay out to adult heart attack victims? It surprised me so much I had to write this article to tell you. Kids eh? The best thing and the worst thing that can happen to us. All those wonderful moments, the smiles, the tears, their failures and successes affect us every bit as much as if it happened to us. Often more. When they are ill, we wish we could take it from them and endure it ourselves rather than see them suffer. However much we want to though, we just can’t.

Serious conditions We’ve all seen those documentaries on the television with sick children undergoing all manner of traumatic events, surgeries and life threatening ailments. It is enough to bring many of us to tears and they are not even our own children. What are we to do as parents if it happened to one of ours?

Help is at hand Critical illness policies these days will pay up to £25,000 per child per parent which means that if your child suffered a serious condition, you could claim up to £50,000 to help with treatment or provide them with the means to make their life more comfortable. As a parent myself, nobody can put a price on my children’s health or happiness. However, having the ability to pay for the best treatment in the world puts my mind at ease somewhat.

What are the chances though? I could roll off a load of statistics but let’s face it, no-one takes that much notice of them really, do they? Instead, I’d like you to think about all those children in the documentaries and the ones in the children’s wards when we do have to visit hospital. They are somebody’s children at the end of the day. We all sympathise but deep down we’re glad it’s not our child. It sounds selfish but it’s only human to think that way.

What if it was your child? Read on….

What you can do

Most insurance companies will pay up to 50% of your own cover up to a maximum of £25,000 as mentioned earlier. If two parents have their own individual cover then each child can have up to £50,000 cover but it has been known in exceptional circumstances for insurance companies to pay over £100,000 for specialist treatment outside of the UK. None of these payments affect the parent’s cover in any way. If you needed to claim after your children, you would get the full pay out. Contact your adviser today to find out if your policy protects your children. If not, it might be time to review it. If you don’t have a policy, give us a call to find out how little money peace of mind really costs.

A DOORWAY TO A NEW LOOK

THIS WEEK: HOW TO PERSONALIZE THE FRONT DOOR. When we buy a property, we often inherit a front door we’re not particularly keen on. It’s only natural to want to replace - or at least redecorate - this, making your own personal stamp on the first thing that you and your visitors see. The easiest way to personalise and update a front door is, of course, to paint it. Ideally, the colour of the door should go with the house’s other exterior woodwork and the brickwork or render, and the style of the door should suit the house’s age and architecture. Quickdrying exterior wood paint is the best option because you need to take the door off its hinges to access all the edges, and quick-drying paint should enable you to finish the job in a day. Don’t forget to paint the top and bottom edges to prevent water seeping in, but don’t apply too much paint because the door may be hard to open and close afterwards. If there’s no alternative but to replace the door, sadly

this can be tricky and timeconsuming. New doors take quite a bit of adjusting and the door frame may need to be altered or replaced. The other problem is fitting the locks - you don’t want to compromise your home’s security, so get in a carpenter or locksmith if you’re not sure what you’re doing. At the back of the house, bifold doors are an increasingly popular alternative to French windows and patio doors, especially for extensions. Bifold doors consist of three or more doors that fold back on themselves and sit flat against one wall or both walls, depending if they open in the middle or at the side. It’s a case of the bigger, the better with bi-fold doors because they look most impressive when they span a whole wall (or walls). When the weather’s nice, you can fold them back to open up the wall for a fabulous indoorsoutdoors room. If you want to turn your living room, family

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK

room or kitchen-diner into a stunning space, bi-fold doors go a very long way to help. Changing or fitting exterior doors may seem straightforward, but rules and regulations apply. Different planning rules can apply on ‘designated land’, such as conservation areas and areas of outstanding natural beauty. Some houses will have had their permitted development rights removed (flats don’t have permitted development rights), which may mean applying for planning permission even to paint the front door, let alone replace it.

Building regulations can apply to new doors, especially if they’re glazed. The easier option is to get them fitted by a company that can self-certify their work complies with building regs, like those belonging to FENSA (Fenestration SelfAssessment Scheme for the double-glazing industry).

Alternatively, you can get a building control officer from the local council to check that they comply, or use an improved inspector, who does the same job but works for a private company. If you don’t have this piece of paper, you may have problems when trying to sell your home, which is the last thing you need when moving house.

Similar rules apply to listed buildings. You may need listed building consent from your local council to make any changes to any doors, so check first. Also, if you live in a leasehold flat or house, you may need the freeholder’s permission to change or add exterior doors - the building’s front door, for example, usually belongs to the freeholder.

HOW-TO TIP CRACKING ADVICE

HAMMER DRILL Serious DIY requires seriously good power tools, and the Stanley FatMax SDS Plus Pneumatic Hammer Drill (£129.99, Argos) is exactly that. If you have plaster to chisel off, or a bricked-up chimney breast to open up, there’s no better drill for the job. As well as a conventional drilling mode and an SDS drilling mode (for high-impact masonry and concrete drilling), this drill has a mode for chasing out and heavy-duty chipping, which is brilliant when there’s demolition to do - at 750W, it packs a powerful punch.

Want an extremely quick and easy way to fill hairline cracks? New Polycell Quick Drying Polyfilla Spray (£5.99 for 300ml, Homebase) makes this tiresome job a doddle. You simply spray on the filler, press it into the crack and remove any excess with a filling knife, then it’s ready to paint in just two minutes. Brilliant! 137

Age UK Bournemouth reminds older drivers of the importance of car insurance at new registration time This April, as the new ‘14’ registration plates appear on the roads, it is an ideal time for drivers to review their insurance policy and check they are being offered a policy that meets their needs. Peter Kendall, Trading Manager of Age UK Bournemouth, said: “When buying insurance for a brand new car, or even for your current one, it is essential to always shop around before committing to a provider. Securing a car insurance policy that meets your needs, and not just the cheapest deal, is important. You may wish to avoid paying for features that you don’t need and remember to always read your policy in depth, check for any hidden charges, cancellation fees or exceptions that could invalidate a claim. Also watch out for providers that automatically renew car insurance policies each year and charge for cancellation of them. Older drivers should also check there is no upper age limit on a policy.” Age UK Car Insurance, provided by Ageas Insurance Limited, is designed to meet the needs of those in later life. It has no upper age limit, no hidden fees for policy changes. It can be paid by monthly instalment at no extra cost 0% APR Representative.

Tired of looking tired? Evenlines launches Hollywood Eye Magic® Miracle under eye treatment in a bottle. There is one product that has been creating quite a buzz on the industry social media scene recently. Despite its very un-clinical name Hollywood Eye Magic® is attracting the attention of consumers and professionals alike because of its dramatic results. Dr. Eve at Evenlines Clinic quotes “We have never seen so much excitement and client enthusiasm than we have seen with the introduction of Hollywood Eye Magic® under eye serum. It is a fantastic cosmetic product which is achieving amazing results”. The under eye serum instantly reduces and eliminates puffiness, bags, circles and wrinkles in this delicate area. It contains no chemicals, is not tested on animals and is fragrance free and hypoallergenic. The list of natural ingredients contained in the product include sage, calendula, cucumber, lemon, lavender and willow bark. One application will have an effect that lasts eight to 12 hours but the serum also has a cumulative firming and rejuvenating effect. Because it is purely a cosmetic product there are no clinical trials but the results seem to be speaking for themselves with dermatologists, doctors and nurses stocking the brand alongside their high-end skin products. Although new to the UK market, the Hollywood Eye Magic, which is made in Canada, has been around for more than 10 years and social media is awash with remarkable before and after pictures, celebrity endorsements and testimonials. With such high consumer demand and dramatic results, Hollywood Eye Magic® is definitely the one beauty product to have!

We talk to Dr Fang and Dr Wei based at Nature Therapy in Westbourne, about Arthritis and how to cure it . Arthritis is a degenerative inflammatory disease that attacks the joints in particular, causing symptoms of stiffness, swelling, pain, and loss of the normal range of motion. It is especially common in elderly people, although rheumatoid arthritis can occur in young people as well.

Causes of Arthritis In traditional Chinese patterns of disharmony, the various types of arthritis fall typically under the category of “painful obstruction syndrome.” Acute painful obstruction can be due to wind, cold, dampness, or heat, although it is usually a combination of wind, dampness, and cold. In an acute attack of wind, cold, and dampness, symptoms include joint pain that gets worse with cold and is relieved with warmth, a feeling of heaviness or numbness in the limbs, limited mobility of the affected area, and, possibly, a slow pulse. A more chronic arthritis condition is generally associated with an underlying deficiency of the vital substances involving the liver and kidneys, in view of their relationship to the tendons and bones. Traditional Chinese treatments reduce pain and inflammation, but they focus on eliminating the cause of the arthritis and, thus, the disease itself. Arthritis responds very well to acupuncture. When combined with moxa, it can relieve pain and reduce inflammation immediately. Some acute cases require only a few treatments. Needles are typically placed into points surrounding the painful area, bringing circulation to the area and helping relieve the stagnation that causes pain and swelling. A more chronic, long-term arthritic condition can take months or even years to resolve. For this reason, it is essential to begin treating this disorder at the earliest stage possible.

If you suffer with Arthritis or need advice for any of the below, please call the team on 01202 763221 or pop in to 122 Poole Rd, Westbourne, BH4 9EF

Do I need Selphyl PRP treatment? The treatment is ideal for people seeking to bring back a younger and fuller look to their face, neck or hands. Selphyl is perfect for smoothing out wrinkles, stress lines and even acne or surgery scars. The treatment restores volume to your skin, bringing out the skin’s natural vigorousness.

Will it hurt? The injections during the treatment may cause a slight bit of discomfort, though a fine needle is carefully and considerately used. Your skin may appear a little red and sore with bruising directly after the treatment, though any swelling is only temporary and will ease soon after.

How many treatments are needed? Whilst in some cases a couple of sessions every 4 to 6 weeks of the Selphyl PRP treatment is required for the desired effects, the number of treatments required entirely depends on the recommendation of your professional. By speaking to Austin Brewer in your initial and free consultation you’ll be able to discuss the desired effects and how best to achieve this. If you are interested in the treatment and would like further information from Austin Brewer in Bournemouth, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Healthy Lifestyle Tips by Mark Daley

Mark Daley has been the Health and Fitness Manager at the West Hants Club since 1999. He started his career in the Health and Fitness industry in 1980. In the early 90's he established the Christchurch Doctor Referral Scheme with local GP's which proved a huge success, allowing patients access to exercise and healthy lifestyle changes as a prescription. Mark has a vast knowledge of sports nutrition which can be adapted to weight management, as well as strength and fitness exercise programming for the beginner to the advanced athlete. He heads a team of health and fitness specialists at The West Hants who all have their own niche including Pilates, Strength and Conditioning, Meditation techniques, Neuro-Linguistic Programming to name just a few. Here are tips 1-5, see next issue for more.

1 2 3 4 5

Choose exercise that you know you can maintain consistently. Something you enjoy, that doesn’t feel like a chore. Consistency is the key to physical improvement. Likewise chose a healthy eating regime that you can maintain. There’s no point going on a diet with a view that once you’ve reached your goal weight you plan to revert to eating what you did before. Incorporate resistance training like weight training, bodyweight work (push ups etc.) into your weekly regime. It will make you stronger, leaner, increase your metabolism and make your bones denser. Stretch. As we age flexibility is the first physical conditioning factor to deteriorate. It’s important to undertake a stretching programme. Add a good quality Omega 3 supplement to your diet. Omega 3 fatty acids will help increase immune function decrease blood pressure, Y ONL blood viscosity and inflammation. Call for more information or to book your tour!

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

TOP TEN HATED ROAD HABITS Talking or texting whilst behind the wheel is not only illegal, it’s now the nation’s most despised road habit. New research from Kwik Fit reveals that using a mobile handset whilst driving is the nation’s number one bugbear on the road, as cited by 47% of UK motorists questioned. Tailgating, previously the number one most hated habit among motorists when Kwik Fit conducted the study in 2010, now takes second place, cited by 42% of drivers as their motoring pet hate. Failing to indicate (35%), dangerous over-taking (30%) and middle lane cruisers (26%) complete the top five. Drivers using their phone appears to be more of a nuisance to older motorists than younger ones, with 62% of over 65s citing this as their main motoring complaint, compared to just 38% of those aged 18-24. BRITAIN’S TOP TEN MOST HATED ROAD HABITS:

• • • • • • • • • •

Using a mobile handset to talk/text 47% Tailgating 42% Failing to indicate 35% Dangerous overtaking 30% Middle lane cruisers 26% Last minute braking 23% Undertaking 19% Hesitant driving 12% Being slow away from traffic lights 12% Jumping the lights 10%

Roger Griggs, director of communications at Kwik Fit, says: “These driving habits aren’t just annoying, they are dangerous and some of them against the law. You’re four times more likely to have an accident if you use a mobile while driving, in addition to the frustration it causes for fellow motorists. 152

SKODA BUSINESS MODELS Skoda has launched its new SE Business range for company car drivers. The new suite of vehicles offers corporate customers a low taxation liability and whole life cost combined with a comprehensive specification, classleading space and versatility. Tailored to suit a wide range of business applications, company car drivers now have a choice of 19 variants from the multi award-winning ŠKODA Octavia and Superb hatch and Estate, and Yeti Outdoor off-road crossover model ranges. The SE Business line-up - priced from £19,560 - comprises a package of state-of-the-art technology and safety equipment for added driver practicality

and comfort. An ‘Amundsen’ touchscreen satellite navigation system with DAB radio, Bluetooth, dual zone air conditioning and cruise control all feature as standard, as do ESP, driver and passenger airbags and ABS.

Patrick McGillycuddy, Head of Fleet at ŠKODA UK said: “The SE Business range is the first ŠKODA line-up tailored specifically to the diverse requirements of today’s company car drivers.”

Fleet drivers also benefit from reduced running costs thanks to an innovative stop/start system and low rolling resistance tyres married with ŠKODA’s 1.6 and 2.0-litre TDI CR DPF diesel engines. These include the frugal GreenLine II and III powerplants which deliver CO2 emissions as low as 85g/ km with an impressive combined fuel consumption to match at 88.3 mpg. This means that Benefit in Kind tax rates start from 14%, and four SE Business cars are exempt from Vehicle Excise Duty.

NEW MINI COUNTRYMAN A new version of the MINI Countryman – the first MINI to feature four doors, five seats and optional all-wheel-drive – will be available shortly, priced from £16,990. Updated exterior design, optimised fuel consumption and emission figures – as well as equipment enhancements – contribute to what Mini says is “a more mature character and increased appeal.” Increases in power output, improved aerodynamics and further efficiency enhancements have resulted in better acceleration and top speed in some models.

Fuel consumption in the new MINI Cooper S Countryman has improved to 47.1 mpg, while CO2 emissions drop by three per cent to 139 grams per kilometre.

MINI Centre Rail between the front seats and a high-end radio system comprising CD player with MP3 capability, AUXin socket, DAB radio, Bluetooth, five speakers and rear Park Distance Control.

All engines are combined with a sixspeed manual transmission as standard. An optional six-gear automatic transmission is available for all model variants, with the exception of the MINI One D Countryman which includes shift paddles as standard on MINI Cooper S, Cooper SD and John Cooper Works Countryman. Standard equipment on the new MINI Countryman includes air conditioning,

All model variants now have lower fuel consumption and emission figures, as well as meeting EU6 emission regulations. MINI’s ALL4 all-wheeldrive system continues to be available on MINI Cooper, MINI Cooper S, MINI Cooper D and MINI Cooper SD Countryman. The MINI ALL4 system comes as standard with the MINI John Cooper Works Countryman. The four-cylinder engine used in the MINI Cooper S Countryman, with twin-scroll turbocharger, direct injection and variable valve control, also sees an increase in output to 190 hp. This results in a reduction in the 0-60mph time of 0.1 sec to 7.5 secs, while the in-gear sprint from 50 to 75 mph in fifth gear now takes just 8.4 secs – down 0.2 secs.

KOH NOI

“Koh Noi, is a new brand model delivering an informal Thai Tapas bar atmosphere, high turnover and a big takeaway trade to residential areas. The small sites will be local, fun and fast-paced bars The Koh family have been dazzling diners for over five years now, brining us authentic Thai cuisine in some of the grandest venues around the country. At Koh, tapas doesn’t just mean multiple sample sized dishes; it is about sharing an experience together. Every detail from the genuine Thai chefs, down to the cushions on your seats, have been carefully selected and brought together to create a complete dining experience. Koh Thai has been brining you delicious food and drinks in their restaurants for years, but now is the turn of the latest edition to the family: Koh Noi. The phrase “Koh Noi” means tiny island, and wow do great things come in small packages. Koh Noi is their first tapas bar, focussing on brining you a refined selection of tapas dishes, and their always-delightful drinks menu. No reservations are allowed here, the island consists of walk ins’ only, (a refreshing twist we think). We thought that we would leave it to the experts and let our wonderful server choose for us…moments later, (and I really do mean moments with their quick and attentive service); we were presented with a plethora of tantalising dishes. The 24hour Ribs were melting in the mouth, gorgeously tender, and fell from the bone. Their Spicy Spring Roll was packed with hot Thai flavours; they say that chilli has a strange effect on people – though you might want to stop, its just too tasty, sort of a pain versus pleasure dilemma. Koh’s Own Chicken Satay left us wanting to know all of their secrets, and the Thai Sliced Crispy Beef had us succumbing to its moorishness. If the food wasn’t enough, next came the cocktails. A personal favourite of ours would be the Mai Thai: Fresh lime flavours, packed with punchy rum! But Koh, like everything they do, have taken it to the next level, with the addition of fresh chilli: all coming together to make a delicious concoction!

NEED TO KNOW SERVICE

The team have informed us that they are even available for takeaways! Collection only at the moment, but have no fear, they are doing everything they can to get those delivery wheels in motion. At Koh Noi, you aren’t just having a meal or a few drinks; it is a complete dining experience, that these dedicated Kohians can’t wait to share with you! 5 Stars Guys!

FULL FLAVOUR, LOW FAT

Watching your weight, but don’t want to survive on rabbit food? Fear not - food writer Angela Nilsen has given classic recipes a low-calorie twist. We take a (guilt-free) taste.

If you find sticking to a healthy eating regime too much of a struggle, because you simply can’t give up your favourite foods, Angela Nilsen’s new book could be just the ticket. The former food editor of BBC Good Food magazine has taken traditionally calorie-packed meals and treats, including a full English breakfast, pasta dishes, curries, cakes and desserts, and recreated recipes for them with less sugar, fat and salt - but the same deliciousness, she promises. Make It Lighter also features ‘slimmed down’ versions of fish, chips and mushy peas (classic version, 915 calories; lighter version, 649), Thai green curry (classic version, 817 calories; lighter version, 487) and even chocolate brownies - which Nilsen’s managed to make possible at a less-than-naughty 191 calories, compared to the typical 314 in a regular brownie. “They are all classics, the kind of food you love to eat but might feel a bit guilty about,” she says, describing the recipes in the book.

“My challenge was to find ways of maintaining the desired taste while creating a much lighter version - recipes with less fat, sugar or salt, the very ingredients that make them so popular in the first place.” Nilsen admits the task wasn’t always easy, as she refused to compromise on the irresistibly rich taste of well-loved treats, and wanted to avoid using low-fat alternative ingredients, as she felt the full-fat versions added to the taste. But, she says: “Where I have occasionally used them, I’ve worked out lower fat ways of increasing richness and flavour.” She insists these aren’t ‘diet’ recipes - just ways of enabling people to eat the food they enjoy, but in a lighter, healthier way. “They are recipes you can enjoy with your family and friends without the guilt.” Her personal favourites include the lemon tart and the chocolate brownies: “I like them for the surprise element, as the secret ingredient I used to keep fat down but gooeyness intact was mayonnaise, which fooled everyone.”

RECIPE

Nilsen also singles out her lighter hummus recipe, in which she uses a whole bulb of roasted garlic after it was recommended to her by a friend in Canada. “I tried it and was amazed how well it worked,” she says. “The roasted garlic didn’t overpower and it gave the hummus its creamy texture, which didn’t require as much oil. “It’s these kinds of struggles and unforeseen twists that have made all the recipes in the book an exciting journey to take.” Each recipe comes with tips to help you cook more healthily, such as brushing vegetables with a little oil then roasting or cooking them on a griddle, instead of frying them, or bulking out a shepherd’s pie with lentils, so you can cut down on mince.

Twice-baked cheese souffles Ingredients For the souffles: 1tbsp (heaped) polenta 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for greasing 1tsp butter 25g plain flour 250ml semi-skimmed milk 50g grated Parmesan cheese

1tsp Dijon mustard 50g light soft cheese 2tbsp (heaped) snipped chives, plus extra to serve 2 large egg yolks 3 large egg whites 50g rocket, to serve Freshly ground black pepper

For the tomato salsa: 350g cherry tomatoes, finely chopped ½ small red onion, finely chopped 1tsp tomato puree Pinch of crushed dried chillies Freshly ground black pepper

Method Lightly brush six 150ml ramekins with olive oil and coat with the polenta, shaking out any excess. Place the ramekins in a small roasting tin.

Meanwhile, make the salsa. Mix together the tomatoes, onion, tomato puree and crushed chillies. Season with pepper, cover and chill until ready to serve.

minutes until golden on top and risen. Carefully remove from the tin and leave to cool. The souffles will sink as they cool.

Heat the oil and butter in a medium saucepan, stir in the flour and cook, stirring, for one minute. Remove from the heat and pour in the milk, a little at a time, stirring well until the mixture is smooth.

Preheat the oven to 200C (fan 180C/gas mark 6).

The souffles rise again when re-baked, and you can prepare them up to 24 hours in advance. If re-cooking, preheat the oven to 200C (fan 180C/gas mark 6) and remove the souffles from the fridge about 10 minutes before baking. Turn each out of its dish and place on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment.

Return the pan to the heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to the boil. Remove from the heat. Reserve one heaped tablespoon of the Parmesan and stir the rest into the mixture, with the mustard, then the soft cheese in small spoonfuls. Add the chives, season with pepper and leave to cool slightly. 154

Beat the egg yolks into the cheese mixture. Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. Using a large metal spoon, fold a spoonful into the mixture to slacken slightly. Gently and evenly fold in the remaining whites, half at a time, keeping the mixture light and airy. Divide the mixture evenly between the ramekin dishes. Pour cold water into the roasting tin to come halfway up the sides of the dishes. Bake for 15-18

Sprinkle the reserved Parmesan over each souffle, then bake for 10 minutes or until risen. Scatter with chives. Serve each with a pile of salsa and rocket.
