4 Dear Ferndown & West Parley residents, It is that very festive time of year again. Yes already! We Edition 151 have the whole family coming for to stay for a few days and I am really looking forward to it. What are your plans? A luxury holiday away (oh that sounds amazing), a big family gathering or just some time Debbie & Stephen Corney on your own? Whatever you decide to do, Stephen and I hope that you can relax, have some Christmas cheer and ponder over the last year, whilst looking forward to a bright new start in 2019. Setting goals for a New Year can be quite refreshing. Do well with that one! Our wonderful and loyal advertisers would all like to Wish you a Very Happy Christmas. Each and every one of them appreciates your support. You can give them a call to Wish them a Merry Christmas too and if you need any of their services over these winter months, they would be extremely happy to help you. That is what they are here for. For you. If you would like to see anything different in the coming issues of your little Directory, then please let me know. We have some exciting plans with “Daichi the Dashing Dude”, the new Dorset Publications Campervan, who should be ready and willing soon, to take us on many a family outing. Getting some space, enjoying the outdoors and having some family time seems so precious these days. We are all so busy, it is important to make that time… to have some time out! Fingers crossed Daichi is all made up and ready to ‘rock and roll’ in January! The prize word search continues to be very popular. The lucky winner this month is Sadie Hopson. Well done! Who will be the next lucky winner for the first issue of 2019? I will let you know. Wishing you a Fantastic Christmas. May you relax, have a laugh and look forward to 2019 with excitement. Thank you for all your great comments and support throughout 2018! All the Very Best to You,
Welcome...

Parley First School gets new play equipment thanks to Tesco Ferndown and John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation The pupils at Parley First School are enjoying their fabulous new Woodland Play Equipment thanks to the Bags of Help scheme at Tesco Ferndown and the John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation (JTYAF). The JTYAF applied for funding from the scheme where the money raised by the sale of carrier bags is being used to fund thousands of local projects. Customers ‘vote’ for their chosen charity and the charity with the most votes wins £4000, second place £2000 and third place £1000. The JTYAF is delighted to announce that thanks to their supporters they were lucky enough to receive the top prize of £4000, which has made a huge impact on the lives
of hundreds of children at Parley First School. This fantastic new equipment has provided an inspiring and challenging area where the children can develop a range of physical skills. Part of the drive at the school, to keep the children fit and active and it is certainly having the desired effect. The new play trail is hugely popular with all the pupils. The JTYAF and all the children at Parley First School would like to pass on their thanks to everyone who popped a blue token in the box for this exciting project. You have put a lot of smiles on a lot of young faces. For more information about the charity please visit www.jtyaf.org

Cloudy2Clear Announce Trusted Trader Partnership Consumer champions Which? have now joined the thousands of customers who recognise that Cloudy2Clear Windows really are a business that you can TRUST. The company which specialises in repairing windows which are steamed up, broken or damaged by replacing the panes – not the frames has received the coveted ‘Which Trusted Trader’ status after going through a rigorous accreditation process entirely focussed on customer service. Group Managing Director Marcus McGee believes that Which? have endorsed Cloudy2Clear’s long standing
company policy of delivering the highest standards possible at all times. ‘Our service is simple. If your double glazing has misted up we can replace the glass at a fraction of the cost of a new window, in any type of frame, and with a new 25 year guarantee. But it’s not just about saving people money, although that obviously helps. Whilst a number of tradespeople perhaps don’t focus on customer care as much as they should do, we make sure we turn up when we say we will, do the job the customer requires and leave their house as clean as a whistle. Locally Cloudy2Clear service the Ferndown area and
manager Justin Friel agrees that this approach is a major factor in his success. ‘The truth is that it’s not just the personal satisfaction that I get from doing a good job but also it makes good business sense. I get a huge amount of business from friends and family of people I’ve done work for, which just goes to show how much a little bit of effort is appreciated as both my customers and, obviously a body as nationally important as Which? now recognise.’ So, if your windows are steamed up, broken or damaged give Justin a call for a free quotation on 0800 61 21 118 and he’ll be happy to help!

Wildlife News
Talking about Wildlife...
Thinking Green! Sustainable living seems to have moved higher up on the news agenda’s in 2018. This year there won’t have been many of us who haven’t seen an image of a beach, home or away, li�ered with plastic, or a beloved marine creature wrapped up in plastic, inside and out. This raises the allimportant question: what can we do about it?
Being ‘green’ and caring for the environment isn’t easy – if it were, we wouldn’t be in this situation. The plastic that pollutes our seas exists because it’s made our lives easier in some way. For some of us, changing our habits to move to an alterative may seem more inconvenient or expensive a�er years of taking the ‘easy option’ which has been given to us. But there are things we can do in our daily lives which take li�le or no effort and could actually save you money in the process. 1. Reduce single-use plastic: Say no to drinking straws, say no to single use plastic bags and say no to plastic bo�les. Did you know some of these items can hang around for over 500 years before they start to break down? Buy a reusable water bo�le, go without the straw or buy a material shopping bag you can use time and time again. 2. Composting: Not only is composting your food scraps great for reducing waste, but it’s also beneficial for your garden and its
wildlife. Many councils offer a food waste collection bin – if you have one, make sure you use it!
3. Seafood sourcing: Do you know where your seafood is coming from? 90% of global fish stocks are either fully or over-exploited. Use the Good Fish Guide to find out which fish are the most and least sustainable before you make your purchase. www.mcsuk.org/goodfishguide/ search 4. Replace your coffee cup: Not all takeaway coffee cups are recyclable, so why don’t you help cut down on the waste and get your own reusable coffee cup? Some cafes will give you a discount for doing so – in DWT’s Fine Foundation Chesil Beach Centre and Lorton Meadows Conservation Centre, receive a 10% discount on your coffee or tea! 5. Buy and support local: 100% of the profit from DWT’s online shop and visitor centre shops goes straight back into looking a�er wildlife in Dorset. Where possible we focus on locally sourced and made products that have acceptable environmental and sustainable credentials. Dorset Wildlife Trust offers, in our online shop, selected ‘eco-friendly’ products, perfect for a gi� for Christmas or to change your way of living. By Sally Welbourn Communications Officer

Ferndown Middle School supports Operation Christmas Child Ferndown Middle School has been proud to support the Operation Christmas Child shoe-box appeal this year. Run by Samaritan’s Purse, the aim is to put together as many shoe-boxes filled with all sorts of lovely gifts and supplies which will be received by children who have been affected by war, poverty, famine or disease. Each of the 20 tutor groups, along with the support of Mrs Melia, put together a shoe-box and raised the money required to send them across the world, in order to positively impact children’s lives this Christmas.
Members of the School Council along with Mrs Melia (who coordinated the collection) and Mrs Allen (Head Teacher) are pictured with the shoe-boxes

Do you drive an automatic car? The majority of car manufacturers recommend changing the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) on automatic gearboxes every 40,000 miles. We have invested and are now equipped with the latest ATF exchanger machine, which runs flushing detergent through the gearbox, thus ensuring a 100% exchange of the total fluid capacity, unlike traditional methods.

Providing the answers
to your legal questions
This will be the first Christmas since my partner and I separated and we are struggling to agree on contact arrangements for our children. For most parents, arranging contact with the children over the Christmas period can be a very simple process with both parents being able to agree to the times and dates. However, unfortunately in some cases this is not so simple and agreeing contact with your ex -partner can be very difficult. There are no definite rules as to how, or when, Christmas contact should take place, each case is different. However, the key consideration is ‘what is best for the children’ and perhaps in some cases it is appropriate to ask what the children would like. It is always best for parents to be proactive to plan contact over the Christmas period sooner, rather than later by either discussing the plans directly, or in writing. Think about alternating Christmas so the children will be with mum on Christmas one year, and with Dad the next. Alternatively consider dividing Christmas Day between both
parents to allow the children to see both. Communication is key to making arrangements, try to put your differences aside and work together. If you cannot communicate directly with your partner, then seek help from a family lawyer who can assist you with this. If in the unfortunate event contact arrangements cannot be agreed, then both parents may wish to consider family mediation, where a trained mediator will be present to help guide you towards a mutual agreement. If mediation cannot assist and all other avenues have been exhausted then you need to seek the help of a Court, however, please be aware this will be timely and costly.
For advice about family arrangements Harold G Walker can help. Please contact a member of the Family Cath Porter team on 01202 881454 or email enquiries@hgwalker.co.uk.

Understanding Investments: Managing Risk & Tax to Earn a Higher Return My last article ended with a quote from Benjamin Graham: “Successful Investing is about managing risk, not avoiding it.” I concluded that for the everyday saver owning a combination of the main asset classes - Cash, Fixed Interest Investments, Property and Shares was often the most effective way to invest. Savers should remember that the theory of diversification can be applied to their existing savings and investments – by considering the products they own. Alongside tax efficiency this is a powerful combination. There are three common tax-efficient investment products - ISAs, Pensions and Investment Bonds. All too often I hear people say, “My ISA hasn’t done very well,” or “Pensions aren’t very good, are they?” to which I reply, “The ISA and the pension are not usually the problem, it is the underlying investment that is normally the issue.” I prefer to call these products ‘tax wrappers’ as they simply wrap around investments. What is key is selecting the most suitable investments and the most appropriate wrapper for your personal circumstances. The key wrappers include: ISAs ISAs have tax advantages. You do not pay tax on the interest earned on cash or fixed interest investments, or on rental income from property and dividends on shares. There is no tax to pay on capital gains either, so for most taxpayers it makes sense to hold cash and investments within an ISA wrapper up to their annual contribution limit. Help to Buy ISAs and Lifetime ISAs also have additional tax advantages. Investments Bonds Investment bonds are common and offered by the larger insurance companies. There are two types of funds; With Profits or Unit-Linked and both have the same tax rules. Onshore bond Income and growth is taxed within the bond by the insurer, which allows the holder to draw out up to 5% of the amount invested without any immediate tax liability. Offshore bonds are available which defer tax on income and growth. Many people own investment bonds because they appear simple and they treat the 5% withdrawals as income, but in many instances the growth of the investment is being reduced by the ongoing “tax-drag” within the bond. Pensions Controversial and often tinkered with by the government, but still a highly tax efficient way to save for retirement. Many different schemes exist from simple workplace pensions to
Self-Invested Personal Pensions (SIPPS). The most appropriate scheme will depend on your personal circumstances. Howard Goodship This includes your earnings, age to retirement and income plans at retirement. Pensions benefit from the same tax treatment as ISAs, but with the additional benefit of tax-relief on contributions. The disadvantage is that you cannot access them until age 55 and may pay tax at that point on capital and/or income (although the ways you can access pensions is far more flexible now than ever before). You could theoretically own exactly the same underlying investments (hopefully properly diversified) within an ISA, a Pension or an Insurance Bond. However, the return you receive would be different. A simplistic example is detailed below assuming a basic rate taxpayer, a £40000 investment and a 5% return: ISA: £40000 x 5% = £2000 return Investment Bond: £40000 x 5% = £2000 less corporation tax @ 19% = £1620 return Pension: £40000 x 5% = £2000 return. Basic rate tax relief into the pension reduces the cost to £33334 so the return is £8666 (Please note - there are additional rules around maximum contributions into pensions and taxes when drawing the benefits). The right choice of wrapper will depend on your personal circumstances and I recommend seeking professional advice. Making the right choices now will results in you earning, and keeping, more of your returns and will help make your financial goals more achievable. In the next issue, I will review Investments Costs and the value of advice. Howard Goodship is an Independent Financial Adviser with Lonsdale Wealth Management, 5 Fridays Court, Ringwood.

In the treetops There are also educational talks for the youngsters and adults alike, so you can learn as you look. Now, I was there with two active ‘boys’.

Up, up and away... screaming away. It was a far cry from my blissful wander with nature. Fun though I have to say, but shush, don’t tell the boys that! Stephen and Hayden had a thrilling ride on Zip Wire, while I looked after the bags (a rather good excuse…). Stephen, who does not like heights, tried to get off rather quickly at the end and looked a little white, but I think he enjoyed it! Actually, both he and Hayden were grinning from ear to ear. It gave them that adrenaline rush these boys so yearn. Oh for that cup of coffee… The whole day was truly enjoyable. Tim Smit wanted to create a “symbol of optimism where ordinary people working together could do the nearly impossible.” What an amazing purpose. Nellie was truly impressed when we recounted our day to her. Ever optimistic herself and always happy when we have a family day out, she also grinned from headlight to headlight.

Keeping it in the (Lions) family Last month saw the enrolment of two new members to the Wimborne and Ferndown Lions Club which brought the total of new members enrolled this summer to four and the club membership to 22. It has indeed been a bumper summer in more ways than one. The picture shows new members Lena Garrett and her partner Daniel Whittle, with other Lions watching as Daniel is “badged up� by Lion Ken Taylor. The other new members are Jane Beck and Roger Male.
It is worth noting that all four have helped to bring the club average age down significantly. This enrolment was a very special occasion as Daniel is the son of Lions legend Albert, who was a founder of the club in 1969 and served as a Lion for 48 years until his death in October 2016. Apart from being a champion speed skater in his youth, Albert held all the major offices of the club, being elected president three times and district governor at one time.
