& ClassicCustom

In our recent shows we have enjoyed magnificent vehicles of all shapes, sizes and ages! A big thank you to all who made that happen.

Not got a classic? The owners will be delighted to show you their pride and joys, often the result of many hundreds of hours of dedicated labour, and even many years of honing. Take your time viewing the wonderful selection of club and private entries of all descriptions. Maybe some are like what you used to own or your family members proudly enjoyed years ago, bringing alive your happy motoring memories. There will be classic and customised cars, commercials, British sports cars and early saloons and

convertibles, to iconic bubble cars, and perhaps even the odd tractor! Bringing a classic or custom car? Book online and don’t forget to display your show pass that we will send to you to ease your arrival on the day. Come and enjoy a great day out, enjoy all manner of fun and interesting activities happening across our playing fields and help the Ferndown and Parley Rotary Club raise funds for local charities. There will be much to see with lots of food and drink available to keep you fuelled up! Most of all we hope you enjoy your day with us in Ferndown on the King George V Playing Fields on the 17th June, 2023.

Amongst the entertainers at the fete will be one of the up and coming young stars of the South, local girl

Forest FM

Forest FM is part of the local community and its aim is to build upon the area’s unique community spirit, helping it to grow and prosper. Unlike many radio stations, Forest FM operates a true ‘open door’ policy and have allocated a significant percentage of airtime each day to all of the local clubs, societies, organisations and indeed individuals who might want to participate.

Crucial to Forest FM’s success is the local business community. It’s their support that keeps them on air and provides facilities for their listeners.

This is always a very popular event and locals bring their dogs to challenge them to complete the dog obstacle course. Enjoy watching the dogs go through their paces. Truly fun for all the family.

“Here at Beard Meets Dog we specialise in bespoke solution-based coaching, mentoring and training tailored to your dog’s individual needs. We focus on improving the relationship and communication between you and your dog, helping to solve the cause and not just the symptoms.”

“Beard Meets Dog was born from our passion for helping people and being around dogs. I had been trying to think of a way to merge those two passions into a new career for a long time when I stumbled upon the fascinating work of the dog behaviourist, and I knew that was the calling for me. I had spent

the previous 10 years working in personal security, traveling the world and protecting some of the most famous and affluent people on the planet. I knew how to look after people and provide excellent service, I just needed to learn how to help dogs. Cue the next two years of studying every resource I could find and qualifying as a Professional Dog Behaviourist (With a distinction that is one of my proudest achievements) I now specialise in teaching dog owners science-based and ethically delivered dog training and human coaching that they can use to encourage good behaviour in their dogs, and build a beautiful, life-long relationship with their furry friends!”

At every Fete on the Field, members of the Ferndown & Parley Rotary Club walk the field trying to extricate monies from people in support of good causes. Known as “the enforcers” it’s difficult to say “no” and all their efforts last year raised a staggering £1,225 for local charities including the local foodbank. Try your luck at winning a wheelbarrow full of bottleswheelbarrow included. “
