VOLUNTEER PERFORMERS SOUGHT FOR POOLE MARITIME FESTIVAL EVENT Volunteer performers are being sought by local theatre company Valise Noire Storytelling Theatre to be part of Cargo, a live contemporary performance which forms part of the Poole Maritime Festival in May. Starting on Poole Quay a beautiful old sailing boat ‘The Queen Galadriel’ sails into port and a crew disembark, unloading their unusual interactive ‘cargo’ as they dance, sing, and move in procession, sharing stories from above and below the flowing waters and revealing the wisdom and heritage of maritime life along the way. “We are looking for 35 enthusiastic, friendly and committed people who love to dance, act, move and sing or anyone who would simply like to walk with us and share the heritage of Cargo with audiences.” explained Hazel Evans from Valise Noire. “We’re hoping to find people with a range of abilities to join us who can bring their own creativity into the making of this fabulous show.” Free workshops to create the show and recruit volunteer performers will take place in April, with those chosen returning for a series of rehearsals ahead of the performances on Poole Quay on 18 and 20 May. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to take part in an exhibition launch performance at Lighthouse, Poole’s Centre for the Arts on 25 May. A specially constructed exhibition space will enable visitors to find out how the Cargo project was brought to life and discover the maritime heritage that inspired it. The free exhibition will run from 25 May to 25 June. For more information and to register your interest in being a volunteer performer visit www.valisenore.com/ events

GOING GOLD TRETHOWANS SPONSOR THE MAYOR OF POOLE’S MARITIME BALL Trethowans, a leading law firm in the South of England with an office in Poole, are confirmed as the Gold Sponsor of The Mayor of Poole’s Maritime Ball and sponsors of the Champagne Reception and arrival drinks. The Mayor of Poole’s Maritime Ball takes place at the Lighthouse on 13th May as part of the UKs Maritime Festival and is a special fundraising event dedicated to raising money for three of the Mayor’s charities, namely Lewis-Manning Hospice, Chestnut Nursery and Waggy Tails Rescue. The event is set to be a prestigious night of glitz and glamour. On arrival, guests will enjoy a glass of champagne courtesy of Trethowans followed by a delicious 3-course dinner after which the evening will continue with an unforgettable night of entertainment. There will be plenty of opportunities to win prizes and donate to these three local charities. Mark Daniels, who heads the Poole office of Trethowans said, “We are proud to be the Gold and Champagne Sponsors of such a prestigious local event. When we heard about the Maritime Ball and the charities involved, we wanted to support the opportunity. Our staff have even voted Chestnut Nursery as our Poole office charity for 2017/18. We are all very much looking forward to playing our part on the 13th May and supporting the local community.” Cllr Xena Dion, Mayor of Poole proudly says, “I am delighted to welcome Trethowans as the Gold Sponsor. They have long standing local connections and having their support at the Maritime Ball is a big bonus for us all. The event promises to be spectacular, we have already generated a huge amount of support and interest from the local business and private sector and there is still a chance to purchase tickets from www.poolemaritimeball. com priced at £750 for a table of 10.”

RENTAL PROPERTIES URGENTLY REQUIRED Goadsby Poole Lettings Department are reaching out to all Landlords as they urgently require more properties to offer their extensive list of professional applicants. The Poole lettings team are letting properties incredibly fast and with an ever-expanding register of quality applicants are in need of more properties to avoid tenants being left disappointed. This has also meant rental figures are continuing to rise, with many landlords having a choice of applicants vying for their property.

She continues “With our network of 25 local offices, a centralized Property Management Department and over 70 dedicated lettings staff who are available 6 days per week, Goadsby strive to provide the best possible service for their landlords and tenants alike.” For further information on renting your property and the services Goadsby can provide please contact Claire Martin on 01202 686555 or via email on Claire. martin@goadsby.com.

“It’s a great cause and one that as an individual I strongly support. The work they do is invaluable in giving care and respite to children suffering from often terminal illness, and their families. Please donate what you can; every donation helps!”

RUNNERS LIGHT UP THE NIGHT FOR DIVERSE ABILITIES

Over 350 people glowed and lit up the park as they ran the 5k course donning their neon paint, tutus, glow sticks and bracelets. Local radio station Hot 102.8 supported the event and provided sizzling sounds throughout the night, as well as live music by Jenni and Nicky. Clubbercise instructor, Olivia Storey, got everyone in the party mood by hyping up the crowds with a fun-filled warm up before they set off for the run.

Rob Westhead from Bayview Developments is to cycle from Bournemouth to Paris in aid of Julia’s House this August. Rob shared with us some details:

Claire Martin, Lettings Manager comments “Goadsby have been delighted with our recent success, and with such a strong team at the moment here in Poole we are finding that as soon as properties are coming to the market they are letting straight away. We are finding there is a constant demand for properties and this is of course aided by our proactive approach to marketing”

Poole Park was glowing on Saturday as hundreds of runners took part in the first Dorset Neon Run, in aid of Diverse Abilities, raising over £25,000 for the charity that supports children and adults living with disabilities in Dorset.

ROB WESTHEAD WILL CYCLE FROM BOURNEMOUTH TO PARIS IN AID OF JULIA’S HOUSE

Victoria is 14 years old and has been visiting the charity’s respite home, Lily’s Place, since she was 11. Victoria requires constant care from her parents and cannot do many things other teenagers can. Lily’s Place offers much needed respite for Victoria and her parents, including day care and overnight stays, which allows Victoria’s parents time to rest and relax while she enjoys the experiences that the state of the art facility can provide. These experiences include the sensory room – a cutting edge therapy suite full of light-based stimulation tools designed to help with audio-visual development.

Congratulations go to first place winner Amy Mercer from Wimborne Athletics Club with a time of 19 minutes 11 seconds and second place was 16-year-old Joe Talbot running in 20 minutes 20 seconds.

The Weymouth Dorset Neon Run takes place on 23 September at Lodmoor Country Park and is open to anyone over the age of 12. To take part in the next Dorset Neon Run or even volunteer at the event, please visit www.dorsetneonrun. com for more information.

Everyone that took part in the fun run were supporting hundreds of local people that the charity supports, just like Victoria.

To find out more about Diverse Abilities please visit www.diverseabilities.org.uk or call 01202 718266.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

GREEN ECLIPSE

GREEN VISION

If you love the bounce of walking on a well kept lawn, this one’s for you. We’ve achieved this by using the very latest yarn technology to create a variety of soft curving fibres

Like your grass to be a lighter shade of green? This option’s for you. The 30mm fibres are soft and hardwearing, but offer a lighter colour option that’s also easy on your budget.

Life’s too short to be mowing, watering and weeding the lawn. Spend more time doing what matters to you on a realistic artificial lawn that’s always immaculate and usable – whatever the weather.

Visit us today to see our Namgrass display area to feel the difference for yourself

ASK THE INTERIOR DESIGN EXPERT ABOUT...

SOUND AND ACOUSTICS IN SPACES Katie Thomas, Design Director, KTM Design As the lead designer at KTM Design I work on a vast array of projects across the UK, both residential and commercial. There is sometimes the misconception that Interior Architecture and Interior Design is just about the way spaces look, but more often than not we are also dealing with the way spaces sound.

HOME BLESSINGS WITH CREATIVE MINISTRY Rev Gary Pulman offers a modern open hearted and inclusive service for our journey through life “Home sweet home”. There are many ways to describe the place where you live and it is generally the place that is closest to the heart of the residents and can even become a prized possession. It doesn’t matter if it’s large or small a flat or a mansion, if we are lucky enough to be in the place we call home, it can bring a feeling of belonging, comfort and safety and the energy within it has been known to influence behaviour, emotions and overall well-being.

Quite frequently a client will approach us needing help with sound and acoustics. Although they may be happy with the overall look and feel of their home or office space, the acoustics were perhaps not considered enough during design stage. This can result in an uncomfortable, echoing environment where it is difficult to have conversations and complete tasks. Cognitively, we only have a small capacity for processing auditory input – meaning we can only listen to one person speak at a time, and this is why spaces like open plan offices with a mixture of sounds going on can damage our productivity. Noisy office landscapes increase fatigue and drain motivation from employees – people are 1/3 less productive in open plan offices than they are in quiet rooms. The loud soundscape that busy retail environments often have decreases sales by 28% as customers turn away at the door or spend less time in the shop due to the uncomfortable environment. Spaces are being designed without sound in mind and this leads to our businesses and quality of life suffering. At KTM Design we believe that by making decisions that are acoustically beneficial, the spaces we design will provide more enjoyment and success to the end user.

A house becomes a home when you put yourself and your family and friends within it and there are number of reasons why you may like your home to be blessed by me. • To help when selling a home • Before moving into a new home • After a divorce, bereavement, change of job or other major life event • At the start of a new relationship • When leaving a home that has particular attachments for you • To prepare the house for a new arrival • If you’ve had a bad experience at home or feel “uncomfortable” in any room • After a period of ill health, depression, arguments of just bad luck • If you know that the land or building has violent or sad history

How is the home blessed? In consultation with you I may use a number of different methods to cleanse, protect and bless your home that blend with any religious or spiritual beliefs you may hold. This can take from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home.

Each project is different as every room has its own sound. The soundwaves inside a room are reflected, absorbed and dispersed by the rooms boundaries/walls, the furniture, and the people inside which is why different rooms sound different. The sound of a space is determined by its size, geometry and materials being used. If you would like to find out more or are wondering how the acoustics in your space could be improved, we would be happy to have a chat. For more information or to book your complimentary design consultation, please call 01202 069499 or email info@ktmdesign.co.uk

Who will be doing the blessing? I am an experienced Interfaith Minister ordained in 2013, working freelance, not attached to any specific religion offering a modern open hearted and inclusive service for our journey through life, for people of all beliefs and those who are not sure. “Thank-you so much for yesterday, we loved it and felt the warmth and love from what you brought into our home. The words were touching and meaningful for each individual room and what we loved the most was when you blessed us as well as this felt so sincere and genuine” - R&A Bournemouth

HELP FOR FIRST-TIME BUYERS Emma Crowley from Bruce Lance For many people stuck in the rental trap, getting onto the property ladder can be a daunting prospect. Fortunately, the government has taken some steps towards making home ownership more affordable for first-time buyers. In the first of a two-part article, Emma Crowley from Bruce Lance in Poole explains the options. The Starter Home Scheme aims to provide thousands of new homes to first-time buyers aged between 23 and 40. Construction of these new properties commences this year and they will be available

If you managed to save the full £3000 towards your house purchase, the government would contribute a further £750 by way of a bonus. Your solicitor will need to be registered with the Help to Buy ISA Scheme in order to apply for your bonus. At Bruce Lance, we regularly encourage our clients to utilise this scheme and we are of course registered to draw down your bonus funds. In the next issue, I will be discussing the Help to Buy Equity Mortgage and Shared Ownership, two further schemes that can help people onto the property ladder.

A-One Advice Clinic Which trades require Professional Indemnity Insurance? There are the obvious ones, Law firms, Architects, Surveyors, Insurance Brokers, Accountants and Financial Advisors, however as a general rule anyone who gives advice (even if this is free) has an exposure. This includes Marketing firms (including digital), Management Consultants, Letting and Estate agents and Book Keepers.

Do I need Professional Indemnity Insurance? If you give advice then yes, potentially you have an exposure. Professional Indemnity is for your defence in the event that your negligent advise causes a third party a financial loss. This means they do no have to have paid for that advice. Some professions are required to carry Professional Indemnity Insurance by their regulatory bodies (REC for Recruitment, RICS, RIBA, FCA etc). Occasionally it is also required as a contractual obligation with a customer or supplier.

How much cover should I have? If you are required to have cover by your trade body then they often set down the minimum amounts you should have to adhere to their practices. If you are purchasing cover for you own peace of mind then it becomes more difficult. The only real answer to this is the higher the limit of indemnity you purchase the more cover you have. Cover can range from around £100,000 to over £5,000,000. Often we give clients a range of quotes so they can see the affect increased cover has on premiums.

What should I look out for? Excess level. This is the amount of the claim that you are responsible for. Clearly it is far cheaper to have a policy which has a lower premium when you are responsible for a larger excess, however check that this is at a level you are happy with. Limits in the aggregate. This means that the sum insured reduces following a claim by the amount of the claim. These polices are cheaper than those where the limit of indemnity is “any The next clinic one claim”. will be on 01202 769899

TRANSFORM A PLAIN CEILING Back in the eighties many people moved away from plain and papered ceilings in their homes to textured coatings commonly called Artex. Since then the trend has reverted back to plain finishes but I would like to show you what can be done to break these large blank canvasses up a little. Here at Led-Zip we often find ourselves working with creative ceiling features using LED strip products. These products are a continuous flexible strip containing an evenly spaced row of LEDs and have an adhesive backing so you simply peel the backing strip off and stick them down. They are low voltage, typically 12Vdc, and produce a very even light source. Being just around 10mm wide and flexible they lend themselves to being easily concealed in to furniture or ceiling features. These features are usually in the form of dropped or raised areas and can contain other lighting as well as the strip product, the strip is normally used to define the edges of the feature.

For more information please call us now on 01425 627511, alternatively visit our website www.themortgageexplorer.co.uk.

We stock the strip in many colours and in two levels of brightness, the higher 10W/m strip has a light output great enough to light most rooms without any additional lighting as it contains 120 LEDs per metre. Colour changing strip can be great fun to change the

atmosphere of the room to suit the occasion and we have even done one in a crematorium! The features can be constructed easily in plasterboard or MDF and complex shapes can be achieved if required or simple rectangles. Here are a few pictures of ceilings that we have recently worked on. The strip products are very economically priced at just a few pounds per metre and as you can see from the above can completely transform a room. Please feel free to call in and discuss your project or to see two rooms here where we have dropped either the middle or the outside of the ceiling and then lit with the Led strip.

LAND & PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

AN AFTERNOON WITH...

THE GENTLEMEN BEHIND AJ DEVELOPMENTS Walking into AJ Developments’ new Office, a cedar clad, secluded spot in Parkstone, there is a warm welcome that awaits you. Despite recently upsizing their business premises, they have retained the personable character and trusting atmosphere that they have become known for. Company Directors Sebastian Janes and Mark Adams started their careers in construction and their partnership together straight out of education, so we are keen to establish their thoughts on how business has been until this point, their ideas moving forwards, and their take on potential changes within the Market.

Mark: Seb and I will not compromise when it comes to our attitude to risk, dealings with potential buyers/vendors and relationships with investors and agents.

You’ve continuously set precedents and won some challenging planning applications with local councils, how have you done this? Mark: I can proudly say that AJ Developments has surrounded ourselves with very loyal and reliable Planning and Architectural teams with decades of experience between them. The thoroughness of planning applications we submit evidences our knowledge of the markets we develop within. We do not enter into an agreement with a vendor unless we have absolute confidence in our application receiving approval. Our attitude to risk is healthy, but calculated.

What are you most excited about for 2017? Mark: We have several larger schemes which gained planning approvals at the end of last year and will feature in our pipeline of works for 2017. These 10 unit+ projects will undoubtedly further strengthen our local reputation as are situated in areas we’ve had previous success and a great track record.

You have evidenced your continued success in winning Sites over your competitors, why is this? Mark: The entire AJ Developments team demonstrate efficiency, honesty, speed and professionalism. Although we are growing, it is at the forefront of our minds to retain the same approach that has contributed to our success thus far.

What has been your best achievement to date? Seb: Without a question of doubt, having built and successfully grown the business from 2010 in the midst of the previous recession. It taught us extremely valuable lessons which moulded our attitude and approach to everything we do today.

Tell me about AJs plans for this year. Seb: I feel very strongly that strategically we should continue to keep our developments under the £1Million unit mark, certainly this year and for the foreseeable future. We are confident that the low to mid end of the market will continue to prosper due to the underlying housing shortage for homes in this price bracket. We are a registered Help To Buy Developer and are looking to strengthen the aforementioned market and provide affordable housing for first time buyers in our community.

Sebastian Janes and Mark Adams

Seb: The business relationships we enter into are very black and white, and we would like to think that this instils confidence in those we deal with. What was your mission from the outset, and how has that compared to the work you’re undertaking now? Seb: Every year we set our annual goals and evaluate our 5 year plan. These are company wide goals that are derived by our entire team and shared with new members of staff . When starting out it was our ideal to provide high quality housing that is built at sub market average prices, this is absolutely something we are achieving year on year to date and a goal that we all work towards. To what do you attribute your success? Both: We have a shared burning ambition and have complete trust in one another’s ability. Despite managing opposite ends of the business, we don’t get comfortable and will not settle for anything less than excellence. The question on everyone’s’ lips; What are your feelings towards Brexit? Seb: Remaining positive during periods of uncertainty is so important for us. We feel that removing ourselves from the EU will provide a renewed sense of opportunity, enabling us to take control of planning legislation and have autonomy over building methods to ensure we are proceeding in an environmentally friendly manner to reducing global impact for generations to come.

LAND & PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT

Left: Sandecotes Road, Penn Hill; 4 sizeable three storey detached houses, to be built to an extraordinarily high specification. These commodious houses will be finished in December 2017

Right: The spacious kitchen and living area which opens onto the south facing garden at Marama, Moorfields Road, Canford Cliffs. SOLD

How do you think this will affect us locally? Mark: Although the outcome of invoking Article 50 is unknown, we still have a growing population with a National Housing Shortage and an increasing demand for quality new build homes, Brexit or no Brexit. Immediate indicators suggest continued growth and an ever-increasing desirability and demand to reside in the Southern and Home Counties. We have first-hand experience of how investment capital is moving from London to the South Coast. How does AJ Developments help the local community? Seb: With regular Community Give Back Days supporting and donating our time to local charities, our growing workload provides more jobs to local tradesman. Building affordable housing is the area of the market from which we started, and an area we will never overlook. Are you thinking big enough? Seb: Yes. In 2007 ‘Think Big’ by Donald Trump was published… fast forward 7 years. On a serious note, we have ambitions to continue to grow the company whilst maintaining profitability and great returns for our investors.

Something a little less serious now, who are your Dinner Party Guests? Both: A table with Bear Grylls, Barak Obama, Elon Musk, Roger Federer and Jenson Button, would make a pretty spectacular evening for us. Although both gentlemen have made considerable sacrifices to get to where they are, they continue to make time outside of work to spend with their families and friends who share in their success and will be waiting in the wings to celebrate what this year has in store. t. 01202 734012 | e. info@ajdevelopments.net w. www.ajdevelopments.net

ASK THE EXPERT... Monty isn’t just a dapper tweed-wearing handsome Fox; he is also a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the world of property. He is on hand to dispense hints and tips on house sales and property rentals to would-be smart Foxes and Vixens in his fortnightly House Column. This issue, Ron asks, “What sort of contract should I go for when selling my property?” Dear Ron, The two most common types of contract are ‘sole agency’ or ‘multi agency’ contracts. A sole agency contract dictates that you are tied into that agent for a designated period of time and they are the only ones allowed to sell your property. Look out for any wording stipulating ‘sole selling rights’ as this would mean you would need to pay them commission even if you find your own buyer! The positive of sole agency contracts is that you may be able to negotiate a lower commission based on the fact. You may also be able to build a better rapport with the agency as they may be more motivated knowing they are a sole agent on the property. However, on the flip side, you are tied into them and if they turn out to be an inferior agent or if you do not get on with them you will be unable to enlist any other agent until the time elapses or you terminate the contract (which may incur a penalty). The thing to look for here is the length of time an agency will want to tie you in for as this can vary dramatically – some over 20 weeks or even until the property is finally sold. Multi agent contracts simply mean you can market your property with as many agents as you wish and you will only pay commission to the agent who actually sells your property. The benefit of this is not being tied to one agent who may not be right for you and your property and gives you flexibility. You need to be aware that if there are multiple agents involved they may be less motivated to promote your property – however, this should not really be the case with good agencies who will work hard on your behalf regardless. The other thing to watch for is whether marketing your property over numerous agents gives the appearance of desperation – have a think about whether you want multiple boards outside your property! Foxes Sales & Lettings are happy to work with you on a contract that suits you and your property selling needs – our end goal is to make sure we market and sell your property in the most efficient and professional manner that works for you. Every issue you’ll find that Monty has hidden himself on a page of House magazine – if you find Monty you are in with a chance to win a prize! This issue Foxes Sales & Lettings are giving away a very handsome Monty Fox – email belen.robbins@foxes.co.uk with the page number that you found Monty on to be entered into the draw. Good Luck!

TIPS AND HINTS ON CUSTOMER PACKING In order to keep costs down, or for other practical reasons, many of our customers do their own packing. So here are a few hints and tips to help you pack your effects ensuring that they arrive at your new property with the minimum of breakages during the removal… • Always purchase or obtain good strong double walled cartons that don’t have any staples. Single walled cartons and cartons that have lost their strength through being used over and over again tend to crush under the weight of being stacked. Cartons with staples can scratch furniture if placed on a table or other item of furniture to pack the carton. • Fold the bottom and make an ‘H’ on the bottom with the tape, this makes the box good and strong. • Start with a layer of padding such as scrunched paper. Old newspapers, magazines, white paper or even plastic carrier bags scrunched up can be used. • Start with larger heavier items at the bottom. • Put all plates on edge, this creates less stress and prevents them cracking. The same with picture and photo frames. • When it comes to china, glass and other breakables wrap each item individually with white paper. • On top of the bottom layer of items put another layer of padding. Then put smaller lighter items on the top layer, with any glasses on end not on their side. • Finish with another layer of padding. • To close the box use one line of tape over the top of the carton lid. If the box is particularly heavy a second line of tape across the box, forming a cross, may be prudent. • Mark the carton with the room it came from and a brief description – ie kitchen china and glass. • When wrapping silver or crystal it is best to use acid free tissue paper. • DO NOT over fill a carton as they will be stacked during removal. • DO NOT underfill a carton as movement will cause damage. • DO try to balance the weight within the carton, it makes carrying the box less awkward. • Try to share the weight between cartons i.e. do not put all the heavy china in the bottom of just 1 carton. • Use small cartons for heavy items such as books, DVDs, CDs, tins etc. • Save cartons by packing pillows, duvets, cushions etc. in strong bin liners. • Use different coloured paper for wrapping and padding – then you only unwrap the items, not the padding!

INTERVIEW

MEET THE TEAM AT…

BUZZY CLEANERS We spoke with Joanne Baker-Barratt, the proud owner of Buzzy Cleaners cleaning service that’s taking over the south coast by storm using Eco friendly products. What led you to set up Buzzy Cleaners? I felt there was a gap in the market for ecofriendly cleaners. I have had my business for two years since March 2015. I started alone then built up my now team of eight buzzy cleaners. I am very ambitious and always aim to make people happy. As a single mum with a seven-year-old daughter, I completely sympathize with those who have a lack of free time, so I thought to myself, “how can I help?” Where does the ‘Buzzy Bee’ mascot come from? We’re always buzzing around (pardon the pun) and furthermore we’re always busy! I love the colours of a bee and what they represent: a happy to help yellow alongside the more formal black. That’s who we are; an enthusiastic team, with a professional approach. What aspects of cleaning do you cover? Predominately domestic and commercial; home, offices, holiday lets and of course Airbnb rentals. We do also specialize in post builders cleans and contract cleans, as well as one-off cleans and end of tenancy cleanses. Anything that need a clean to be honest! Take us through the Buzzy Cleaning process… The initial meeting for a domestic client is at there home. I always meet the client first and introduce

my business. I look round their home and then go through their requirements, then book a first clean in before any contracts are signed and if the client wishes to meet the cleaner first this can be arranged. What makes you ‘buzzing’ to come into work? I feel buzzy knowing I am helping clients with their busy lifestyles and giving an opportunity to my staff to grow with my buzzing business. What makes you guys unique? We have exceptionally high-standards and a great eye for detail and continuity. We are a happy, fun team that you can rely on. All of my cleaners are vetted, trained, experienced and fully uniformed. Who have you got in the team? Meet: Dulce, Jackie, Gill, Emma, Agi, Lysa, Louise and Natasha. You mentioned Airbnb, could you explain how you can help? Airbnb is a global holiday letting service and it’s growing fast, particularly in Dorset and along the South Coast. It’s a chambermaid service, possibly with two clients a day – one checking-out in the morning and one checking-in in the afternoon – so it’s a quick turn around. We can assist with laundry, ironing and food shopping if required. As a holiday let, the standards have to be that of hotel cleaning standards. We can even support our clients with a meet and greet service for their guests (if required).

Joanne Baker-Barratt, owner of Buzzy Cleaners

I understand you are big on being eco-friendly? Absolutely, being eco-friendly is a huge part of our day-to-day lives and we want our business to be as green conscious as possible. All of our products are supplied by ‘Ecover’; environmentally friendly products that our clients love! Not only are we looking after the environment, but furthermore we’re looking after the health of our clients family, pets and their beautiful furnishings. Our products are totally toxin-free and work twice as well as your harsh household detergents.

TALKING BUSINESS

AN AFTERNOON WITH…

Team Work

CHURCHFIELD ESTATE AGENTS

Estate agents tend to get tarnished with the same brush; an un-friendly persona that is only interested in money, but Churchfield couldn’t be further from this. During our interview I couldn’t help but notice a real buzz about the office. Their team was constantly on the move, with agents coming in and out for viewings casting smiles at one another, phones ringing and laughter being heard around the room, it was clear this was an incredibly friendly team and as a buyer, seller or landlord, this can make all the difference.

Your local agent since 1996 We met up with the team at Churchfield, to discuss all things property, and exciting developments in the Bournemouth area. Associate Partner ‘Gemma Hayward’ took the time to give us in the inside scoop…

20 Years of Local Knowledge Churchfield’s roots have been firmly planted in the local area for over twenty years. Based in Charminster, their team of friendly sales and lettings experts make it their business to really understand the area that they are dealing with. “Most of us have grown-up, or lived here for a considerable time, so we like to think that we know everything there is to know about Bournemouth,” says Gemma. “There is so much going on in the area and it’s a great time to get involved in the property market here”, she continued. Having an in-depth local knowledge is more than just location; it’s about local haunts, parks, entertainment and even more so about the future of the area. We got a chance to sneak a few words from company director ‘Andrew Hooper’, who had this to say about the exciting changes in Bournemouth, “… the council are planning to create a mini metropolis. They want to pedestrianize a lot of the currently congested areas and encourage international investment by replacing these areas with business hubs”. Together, their skilful team has eight main areas of expertise: residential sales and lettings, land and developments, new homes, investment and commercial, and holiday and short-term lettings.

“We have the industry know-how to deal with all property matters applying a flexible tailored approach to each individual or companies requirements”.

Let us Let The lettings market is a battlefield for Landlords, not knowing whom to trust with their property. Churchfield pride themselves on conducted a transparent approach to lettings, “we like to make all of our costs clear from the outset and ensure everything is out in the open. We know of a lot of Landlords who have previously been, for a lack of a better word, ‘stitched-up’, by additional costs and surprise fees, but that’s not how we like to conduct ourselves. We are honest and open in every aspect of our work”, says Gemma.

disposal, for those interested in exploring their options within the development of their land and or property.

Home Sweet New Home Of course what goes hand in hand with development are ‘new homes’. Gemma’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she explained; “With our connections in the land and development industry, we are receiving an influx of new homes. It’s an exciting time, especially for first time buyers, with developers offering incentives for buying off plan. Not to mention the additional support from the government’s ‘Help to Buy’ scheme”. With their connections and extensive experience in the field, it’s easy to understand why so many are seeking out Churchfield for advice and assistance in the new home department. Whatever your property talking points are, get in-touch with Bournemouth’s local agent ‘Churchfield’ and see how they can help you with your latest venture. BELOW: David Swift – Partner (left) & Andrew Hooper – Partner (right)

Churchfield offer an all-inclusive letting service, not just management but also advise for both private and corporate landlords. Their clients are based throughout Bournemouth, Poole and as far as Ringwood and Wimborne.

Bournemouth’s Development Experts It’s an exciting time for the Churchfield team, with several new development projects under their belt. With projects popping up all over the Bournemouth and Poole area, Churchfield have quickly established themselves as THE agent for land and development opportunities. Retained by many local, national and international developers, Churchfield have a wealth of information and experience at their

Sharon Canning

FIXTURES AND FITTINGS WHEN SELLING! Believe it or not, this can cause a sale to fall through and create absolute mayhem especially if the sale is in a chain.

It has also been known for some vendors to take all the light bulbs with them? Why, perhaps they have had it done to them and think it is normal. Again, I have known agents to help fit light bulbs to a property where a purchaser has moved in late evening and couldn’t see a thing! So, fixtures and fittings is important, to ensure complete transparency is given. The solicitors will send to the vendor a questionnaire which will confirm what is being left behind in the property. However, I do believe an agent could help by providing an inventory of what is being left behind to avoid any kind of miscommunication later in the sale process. Here is an example of the difference between fixtures and fittings. Fixtures • Central heating boilers/radiators • Built in wardrobes and cupboards • Kitchen units • Light fittings • Bathroom suites including plugs Fittings • Carpets • Curtains and curtain rails • Lampshade • Free standing white goods (cookers, fridges, washing machines etc) • Television aerials and satellite dishes • Mirrors (hung not screwed)

Are you a compliant landlord? With a seemingly relentless raft of new legislation affecting the private rented sector over the last year or so, as a landlord its vital to ensure you are fully compliant and are not in danger of being tripped up by something that could prove costly. For example: • Have you issued your tenants with a “How to Rent” guide? • Have you carried out Right to Rent checks? • Was your tenant issued with the relevant deposit protection scheme rules? We provide a FREE LANDLORD HEALTH CHECK, with advice and guidance to ensure you’re doing things right.

I remember years ago; a purchaser was going to pull out because the seller refused to leave the washing machine in situ. In the end the estate agent bought a new washing machine out of their own funds to ensure the sale exchanged and everyone in the chain was able to move.

LAKESIDE ROAD, BRANKSOME PARK, BH13 6LS 5 BEDROOM DETACHED HOUSE

“PRIMOVE SAVED MY LIFE” These are the words of 52-year-old Sandra, a Bournemouth-based landlord; “I was on the verge of suicide until the newest and fairest lettings agent to hit Winton stepped in. After a long road of struggling to deal with mounting issues at my property, one that had my mental health on the rocks, I finally had someone to turn to. I felt like I didn’t have any other options, until Primove rescued me from a perilous situation”. After trying to take the brave and risky route of managing her own property, without the backing of a lettings agent, she eventually sought help from three of the area’s biggest agencies. Despite her cries for help she was turned away, unable to pay the extortionately unfair, high-fees quoted to her. “When I started this venture, I wasn’t aware of the lengths I would have to go, the costs involved and the hours wasted chasing unpaid rent. Not to mention the expenses needed for damages inflicted by tenants with shallow pockets. I thought going at it alone was my best option, but I was wrong! As a landlord, I am responsible for the upkeep of my property, as a tenant was for upholding their side of the agreement. Naively I thought letting agents weren’t the way to go, given their bad reputation. “My life had reached an all-time low. In spite of the rumors I took it upon myself to seek assistance from a series of lettings agencies in the area. None would help me. I was a woman in desperate need of help, my life caving in around me and I felt like I had been treated as an inconvenience. To me, they should hang their heads in shame. I felt as though lettings agents saw landlords on their books as a cow to be milked, but only if they could pay. Their reputation as moneymaking machines without a shred of humanity was, in my eyes, not without merit.” Unless she was prepared to pay an extortionate fee upfront – a fee that she did not have – no one would listen, which is where we came in… “They were empathetic to me from the start. I was not just another landlord on their books; I was an individual with a personal story. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt I mattered to them. It would not be an over-exaggeration to say that Primove saved me. They have restored my trust in humanity and if other lettings agents used the same model as Primove, then faith could be restored to their profession. Primove are charging landlords like me a fair honest fee and no unfair commissions. They helped and supported me for FREE, no additional costs. It’s the little touches that I could only dream of from other lettings agents. Primove helped me remove the tenants and are now helping me recover my rent arrears while fully managing my 2-bedroom property for £30 a month. “Thank you Moe, Martyn, Dan and Sue. Sincerely Sandra” Primove was set-up by landlords, for landlords; so if you are struggling with your rental property and/or you want PRIMOVE to manage your property, then please pop into our office for a friendly chat.

The event is always well received all over Dorset and this year we hope it will be even bigger and better! We’d love more schools, more supermarkets and more community groups to get involved! All proceeds from the event will be making a huge difference to children, adults and families in the county.” The launch event will also be a great opportunity to sample delicious treats, to learn more about the charity’s recipe book ‘Scrumptious Home Baking’ and find out about the Great Dorset Bake Sale initiative and how the funds raised from bake sales across the county will be used to benefit those living with physical and learning disabilities.

James who currently lives in supported living

This recipe was submitted by Sadie Smith, parent to a James who attended Langside School and now lives in supported living. Sadie explains, “This was a recipe given to me by my good friend Isobel. It reminds me of our group of friends who met whilst doing an outdoor exercise class with our babies, those babies are now all at school but we still regularly meet up for a cuppa, slice of cake and a good old natter.”

Ingredients 225g margarine 225g granulated sugar 225g self raising flour 150g oats 50g cocoa powder Topping: 50g margarine 1 dessertspoon of coffee granules dissolved in a little boiling water 225g icing sugar

Method Pre heat the oven to 180c/350f/gas 4. Melt the margarine in a saucepan. Stir in the sugar, flour, oats and cocoa powder. Press into a rectangular greased tin. Cook for 15 mins, no longer than this as it will go to hard. To make the topping, melt the margarine in a saucepan. Add the dissolved coffee and mix well. Take the pan off the heat and beat in the icing sugar until all the lumps have disappeared. Spread over the base, when set cut into squares. 134

POOLE MARITIME FESTIVAL

POOLE MARITIME FESTIVAL 2017

With less than a month to go before Poole Maritime Festival comes to Poole, the plans for the exciting line-up of family entertainment as part of the week long festivities are beginning to take shape. Focusing around the prestigious European Maritime Day, one of the largest maritime events in Europe which will be held at Lighthouse, Poole, on 18 and 19 May 2017, the family entertainment embraces all things maritime. Kick starting the family entertainment on Thursday 18 May and Saturday 20 May, is Valise Noire Storytelling Theatre as they present CARGO, a dynamic new outdoor performance bringing Poole’s maritime heritage of The Great Quay to life. Watch as the ‘Queen Galadriel’ ship sails into port and a crew disembark to celebrate a millennia of goods passing through the Great Quay. This dynamic interactive performance procession unfolds mysteries of cargo travelling the seas. Stories from above and below the flowing waters, reveal wisdom and heritage of maritime life. Watch the free performances as the precious cargo is transported along Poole Quay to the Sea Music sculpture. If you would like to get involved as a participant in the procession visit the resources page on www.valisenoire.com/ to register. You can also find on the website additional ways to get involved.

The central stage will showcase musical talent from across the region plus tall ships and, for the first time, spectacular Royal Navy and Border Force demonstrations. The on-water demonstrations are

always a popular attraction and there will be an exhilarating display of ‘flyboarding’. Attached to a jet ski, the flyboard can send the rider up to ten metres in the air, whilst doing various spins and tricks. Visitors will also be able to check out the latest sail and motorboats of all sizes, RIBs, chandlery products, clothing and water-sports accessories.

REVIEWED

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

THE WOOD OVEN, BOSCOMBE BEACH It’s always tricky running an outdoor venue, especially in the habitually unreliable spring, but to our delight the sun had got his hat on, and we were blessed with a glorious day to undergo our reviewing. The team arrived at Boscombe Beach filled with anticipation. Having previously reviewed sister company ‘Urban Beach’, the bar was already set. A stone’s throw away from the pier we arrived at a timber stall, the words ‘The Wood Oven’ suspended in front of an open kitchen. With the sun on our skin and wind in our hair (well accept for Ciaran) we set-up a base camp under the canopy.

150

It was heavenly, sat there slurping ice-cold drinks by the seaside. When theorists’ depicted paradise all those years ago, they talked about white fluffy clouds, golden gates and floating cherubs and an all in all pure landscape, but if you ask me, anywhere beachside surrounded by wood-fired pizza and milkshakes, is more like it. Speaking of which, time to order…

We perched on an available bench and scanned the chalkboard menu. Smoothies, milkshakes, artisan baps and wood-fired pizza – that was the theme. Of course there were other options available, including barista style coffees, handmade baked goods and beverages of the alcoholic variety – don’t mind if I do. We made our selections and so began the assessment.

Naturally we had to try the baps, we opted for one ‘Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder Bap’, and one ‘Braised West Country, Overnight Beef Brisket Bap’. The lucky few among us were invited into their kitchen to watch our food in action. What a set-up. Immediately as you walk in you are met with their celebrated cook (and really the guy that started it all), THE wood oven. It stood proud and curvaceous over watching the busy chefs preparing everything. I watched the pork and beef slide into the oven in their own individual pans. It was a really special experience, being able to see your food made to order. My only regret is an inability to properly convey the smells that were emanating from the oven, as they were to die for! Smokey, sweet smells filled the air, awakening our senses and leaving us searching for the nearest fork to sneak a taste.

Among our drink choices was the moreish ‘Chocolate Orange’ shake and a little something called ‘The Green Reviver’; a delicious blend of fruit and veg that left us upbeat and ready to grab life by the proverbial horns!

If I had to label their food ethos I’d say, “fine dining flavours, street food style”. It was clear a lot of love and care had gone into creating these flavour combinations. The wonderful contrasts of the rich, spice-packed meat against the crunch of homemade

slaw, all topped off with a sweet sauce of your choice – utterly divine – fantastic food, minus the pretense. Shortly after devouring our baps, the pizzas arrived. The crust was crispy on the edges, with a soft center – my personal preference when it comes to texture. I had opted for ‘The Dorset’; a modern day meat feast loaded with local charcuterie meats, olives and lashings of homemade chutney. This was a real testament to the local produce that we have all around us in Dorset. The quality of every ingredient was second to none and made for a truly marvellous pizza. The clincher for me had to be the homemade chutney. A wonderful alternative to any sauce, the chutney lifted what would have been an otherwise quite heavy dish (what with all that meat) and brought all of the flavours to life perfectly. I highly recommend getting yourselves down to The Wood Oven to sample their culinary delights for yourself.

OUTDOOR LIVING

WHAT TO DO IN...

YOUR GARDEN THIS SPRING We offer a range of gates and fencing options suitable for a variety of environments from your garden to public spaces. At Reformed Plastics all of our products are made from 100% recycled plastic. We manufacture products ourselves and then sell direct to the Domestic and Commercial sector. Due to ever increasing importance to recycle and protect the environment, the plastic used is recycled in the UK and is the perfect alternative to wood. Our aims are to help rebuild the environment by utilizing a commodity, which people would otherwise just throw away, and so turn what to some would be rubbish into a valuable product for everybody. Our products have many practical and very useful properties and has an infinite range of different uses, some of which being are as decking, fencing, outdoor furniture, planters, boardwalks, landscaping, bollards, signage and construction etc. The list of possibilities is endless and the long-term advantages it has over traditional materials are staggering!

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great investment, as it never needs to be replaced due to its high strength and durability, therefore it quickly pays for itself in the long run. In short, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worry free! We recycle plastic and then manufacture goods from it, we produce recycled plastic furniture for use in gardens and patios and we retail recycled plastic products such as recycled plastic fencing and recycled plastic decking.

ABOUT US The concept of Reformed Plastics was born over 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 and 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 152

means it will save them a lot of money in the long term! From then on, the rest as they say is history.

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

LOTUS ELISE SPRINT

154

A significant update for the Lotus Elise has been unveiled ahead of its arrival in showrooms this spring. Pride of place in the latest Elise line-up is the new Sprint edition, featuring a host of weight-saving items as standard, as well as the Elise’s distinctive new styling. Benefitting the range as a whole, all new Elise editions receive the car’s new look and new interior options, and every one of the Sprint’s lightweight components can be specified on the standard Elise Sport and the Elise Sport 220 variants. A favourite amongst drivers and enthusiasts, to date nearly 33,000 examples have been hand built. This latest Elise also receives a wide range of cabin enhancements - including the lightweight open-gate gear select mechanism first introduced on the Lotus Exige Sport 350. The Sprint is available in both the 1.6-litre naturally aspirated and 1.8-litre supercharged versions. Delivering an exciting mid-point in the range, it broadens the car’s appeal by including lightweight and carbon components as standard. External design touches for the Sprint range include a matt black transom panel, black wheels which come with custom contrasting metal spun rims, distinctive yet subtle side stripes on the bodywork and unique side and rear badging. Prices start from £32,300.

ROAD TEST: KIA NIRO The Niro is Kia’s first UK hybrid, designed in popular SUVcrossover style and offering low fuel economy and very low emissions. Built on a new platform and with a new 104 hp 1.6 litre petrol engine boosted by a 43 hp electric motor, the Niro has a 6-speed auto gerabox and comes with Kia’s industryleading 7-year warranty, writes NICK FLETCHER. Prices start at £21,295 with a four-model line-up and even the entry version comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, dual zone automatic air-con, LED daytime running lights, four power windows, a DAB radio, USB and AUX ports and a trip computer. My test model was a mid-range ‘2’ version, priced at £22,795, which adds other features including roof rails, privacy glass, reversing camera, chrome detailing, auto lights and wipers, 7-inch touchscreen with sat-nav, connected services and a raft of driver assistance features including auto emergency braking, rear cross-traffic alerts and lanekeep system. The Niro provides an immediate sense of build quality and both the exterior and interior look quite classy. On the road, the car moves off silently on electric power, with the petrol engine cutting in smoothly when required. The auto gearbox

delivers smooth shifts though in normal mode the chages are perhaps a tad slower than on rivals such as the Toyota Prius. However there is a Sport mode for quicker shifts if required. Progress is effortless and the 0-60 mph time is 11.1 seconds, top speed 101 mph - decent performance yet fuel economy is excellent at 74.3 mpg combined, and the Niro also offers strong green credentials with emissions of just 88g/km. The steering feel is direct and handling assured thanks to a firm suspension set up. This does mean a slightly harder ride, but really only discernable on rougher surfaces. Incidentally, the Niro’s handbrake is foot-operated, situated left of the clutch pedal. There is plenty of occupant space, even in the rear thanks to a higher roofline than that of some rivals. Boot space, at 373 litres, is larger than that of the Toyota Prius, but when the rear seats are folded (to give1,371 litres) the Prius has a slightly larger overall capacity. Summing up, the Niro is an eye-catching addition to the hybrid sector, well-equipped, smartly styled and with pleasant driving dynamics. Add its low running costs and 7-year warranty and it becomes a very alluring package.

HYBRID GOLF GTE The updated Volkswagen Golf GTE is open for order in the UK with a significant price cut, two trim levels and a raft of new technologies on board. Prices now start at £30,635. VW says the petrol-electric hybrid Golf GTE offers “a compelling mix of engaging GTI-style dynamics and responsible e-Golf-style sustainability”. The entry-level Golf GTE is joined by the new GTE Advance in a range line-up that now mirrors that of the awardwinning Passat GTE. The hybrid five-door Golf has both a 150 hp 1.4-litre TSI petrol engine and a 102 hp electric motor. The total potential range of the Golf GTE is 514 miles and the GTE’s battery gives an all-electric range of 31 miles. Official performance figures for the 202 hp Golf GTE show it capable of covering the 0-60 mph sprint in 7.6 seconds with a top speed of 138 mph. CO2 emissions are 38g/km for the GTE and 40g/km for the GTE Advance, while combined fuel economy is 166 mpg for the GTE and 157 mpg for the GTE Advance. Both the updated Golf GTE and Golf GTE Advance are equipped with premium features such as full LED front and rear lights with sweeping indicators, Active Info Display, and Volkswagen Car-Net App Connect functionality.

The GTE Advance adds further luxuries such as 18-inch Marseille alloys, the updated Discover Navigation system, a Winter Pack including heated seats, 65 per cent tinted windows, a front centre armrest and exterior e-sound. The GTE offers four operating modes: ‘E-Mode’, ‘GTE mode’, ‘Battery Charge’ and ‘Hybrid. The lithium-ion battery can be charged in 3.45 hours from a domestic mains outlet, or 2.15 hours from a domestic wallbox.

PEUGEOT BLACK EDITION

ROAD TEST: MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER 4 Rapid expansion of new SUV models has meant that one of the long-established contenders in the class, the Mitsubishi Outlander, can sometimes be overlooked, writes NICK FLETCHER. However, you miss the Outlander at your peril, for it provides a formidable package from a company noted for rugged build quality and excellent reliability. Latest versions have had a recent makeover, delivering smoother styling and equipment upgrades, and with prices starting at £24,999. Available as a five seat plug-in petrol hybrid or a seven seat 2.2 litre diesel, the Outlander is more roomy and more economical than some rivals. All versions have all-wheeldrive, and it also scores well for levels of standard equipment, with entry versions getting features such as cruise control, auto lights and wipers, dual-zone climate control and electronic parking brake. My test model, in 4 trim and with automatic gearbox, was one of the top versions with a wealth of extra kit including premium sat-nav and audio system, 360-degree parking camera, heated steering wheel, rear cross-traffic alert, LED headlamps and daytime running lights, power tailgate, leather upholstery, electric sunroof and 18-inch alloy wheels. It costs £33,499.

The Outlander has a tougher and more imposing exterior look than most rivals and underway, proves to have good road manners, with well-weighted steering and a suspension setup which nicely balances ride comfort with cornering poise. The 147 hp diesel unit pulls strongly and has a nippy 0-60 mph time of 10.2 seconds in manual form, and 11.6 seconds as an automatic. Top speed is 118 mph and fuel economy is 48.7 mpg combined. The Outlander is also very capable off-road, with a locking centre differential adding to its ability. The cabin is well built and robustly finished with a quality look, though the overall design is rather plain and functional. Five adults can be accommodated in comfort – the third-row seats are really just for children. The boot has 590 litres of space if the third row seats are not in use, and this can be boosted to 1,022 litres with the mid-row folded down. The boot also has additional stowage under the floor. Summing up, the Outlander comes across as a more serious, more capable SUV than some of its trendier rivals and while it has been around for quite some time, in latest re-vamped form it certainly deserves more attention.

Set apart by its unique exterior styling options, the new PEUGEOT 208 Black Edition is available in a range of three eye-catching paint colours; Nera Black, Bianca White and Hurricane Grey offset with striking 16” Titane gloss black alloy wheels with white laser engraving plus equaliser grille with gloss black finisher and gloss black door mirror shells with colour accents. Powered by the 1.2L PureTech 82 petrol engine, the new 208 Black Edition offers sprightly performance and 62.8 MPG combined. Inside, drivers have the latest technology at their fingertips with a 7” multifunction colour touchscreen alongside DAB Digital radio; Bluetooth®, CarPlay®, MirrorLink® & androidauto connectivity. Available now from £14,595, Peugeot says the new 208 Black Edition is set to become the key model of the three-door 208 range.

ALL NEW NISSAN MICRA Just entering UK showrooms, the all-new Nissan Micra which will be priced from £11,995, with top-spec Tekna versions at £17,295. The new Micra is longer, wider and lower, with a highquality cabin that boasts two-tone soft-touch materials as standard across the range.The five-door-only body shell boasts best-in-class ergonomics for front seat occupants, with no compromise to rear passenger space, says Nissan. The car is available with three downsized engines – two petrol and one diesel – all linked to a five-speed manual gearbox. Nissan’s familiar five grades of Visia, Visia+, Acenta, N-Connecta and Tekna all feature a high level of standard specification. New Micra will be available with a wide range of personalisation options, modifying the exterior and interior with premium components in a variety of contemporary colours. Boot capacity is 300 litres expandable to 1,004 litres when the 60:40 split rear seats are folded down. The 10-litre glove box has been specifically shaped to take a two-litre drinks bottle, while bottles up to 1.5 litres will fit in the front door bins. Additionally, there are two cupholders between the front seats, plus another in the rear. For driver comfort, air-conditioning is standard on all but the entry level model, with automatic air-conditioning available on the higher grades.
