The Wareham
Dear residents of Wareham and the surrounding area,
Edition 143
I do love November and Bonfire Night. It is as special today as it was when I was young. The family fun atmosphere, the burgers, hotdogs and burning wood smells in the air. The cold, wrappedup darkness with bright lights suddenly appearing all over the night sky. Oh yes! I do hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Please keep the pets safe though.
Welcome...

Tickets are on sale now and there has already been a lot of interest from people wanting to book following previous sell-out dates. The event, now a firm favourite in the Dorset Christmas calendar, is well known for lively mix of celebrity readers, music – this year there will be performances by the Funky Little Choir and Lockyer’s Middle School Choir from Corfe Mullen – plus traditional carols There are usually one or two surprises in store for those attending. Last year, Julia’s House Ambassador and AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe and his son popped in to support the event. Doors open at 6.15pm for a 7pm start. Following the candlelit concert guests will be invited to stay on and
enjoy mulled wine and mince pies. Tickets cost £15 for adults and £5 for under-12s. They are available online at Juliashouse.org/carols17 or by calling the fundraising office on 01202 644220.

Notes from...
WarehamTown Museum So you live locally near Wareham or even ‘within the walls’. But how much do you know about the heritage of Wareham and the many important historical events that have taken place there? There is one small place right in the heart of the town which is brimming with information and artefacts – complete with a knowledgeable volunteer team – just waiting to help: Wareham Town Museum.
Back in 2004 someone once said to me that every important business or institution should have its own website as a ‘shop window’ of information for the whole world to see. At that time I was involved with Wareham Town Museum (and subsequently spent six years or so on its committee) and, as I had already built websites for other concerns, thought the Museum would benefit from internet presence. The Committee agreed and I designed the first Wareham Town Museum website consisting of half a dozen pages containing descriptive text and archive images, plus some photos of my own. I booked the all-important Domain Name www.wtm.org.uk and the site was launched!
come to light and new photographs, new text and new videos etc have been added so that now, 13 years later, and after many and frequent updates and a complete re-launch last year, Wareham Town Museum website runs to 30 full length pages and is information-packed with pages on such things as Lawrence of Arabia, the Saxon Sword, the Royal Naval Cordite Factory, Dinosaurs and even a compilation of the sounds of the town a hundred years ago! All this, and the latest information about Museum acquisitions and events, can be found on our modern user-friendly (even for smart phones!) website either before you make your visit or afterwards to recall what you have seen there. The museum is now closed for the season, but you can experience a virtual visit on our website, www.wtm.org.uk including seeing an introductory video. We look forward to welcoming you in person when we open again at the end of March. John Hale, WTM Website Manager

Wildlife News
Talking about Wildlife...
Wildlife Adoptions Red Squirrels and seahorses are in need of help, so this autumn, treat yourself or a loved one to a special wildlife gift with a Dorset Wildlife Trust wildlife adoption.
This time of year, the red squirrel can be seen scurrying around the woodland floor collecting nuts for winter and jumping between trees on Brownsea Island, in Poole Harbour, Dorset. The popular red squirrel, a native species, has been in decline for many years, but Brownsea Island, owned by the National Trust, is proud to give a home to a population of 200 of these enchanting creatures. The island is one of the few safe havens for the reds in the South West. They can be seen by visitors for most of the year but are particularly active during the autumn as they prepare for winter. It’s the perfect time of year to make a daytrip to the beautiful nature reserve, managed by Dorset Wildlife Trust (DWT) on Brownsea Island. By adopting a red squirrel for just £20, DWT can help ensure that the habitat which is so important for their survival on the island is maintained and managed for many years to come.
Marine Protected Areas in our waters. We also need to continue to educate, inspire and engage people about the value of Dorset’s fabulous marine environment. This is all done through our marine conservation work, which is part of the Marine Conservation Fund. Adopting a seahorse will allow us to continue this work. Adopting either a seahorse or a red squirrel this autumn for £20 each, will not only make a unique and wonderful gift for yourself or a loved one, but will contributing to conservation work in Dorset. Each pack comes with an adoption certificate, soft toy, pin badge and information about the species. Buy online at www.dorsetwildlifetrust.org. uk/wildadoptions or ring 01305 264620 (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm). By Sally Welbourn Red Squirrel making eye contact

Meanwhile, on the Dorset coast, lives a less visible but just as unique and enchanting species, the seahorse. The seahorse is the subject of much conservation concern as a result of its declining habitat. DWT is working to get protection and wise management established for more of Dorset’s seas through the creation of

Adventures of Nellie

The Adventures of Nellie The Purbeck Publications Camper Van Nellie, our aging, playful campervan has a new friend! Age is a funny thing isn’t it. We all grow older yet we do not necessarily feel any different. Of course times change and we have to try and keep up where we can, and as nellie knows we get various aches and pains, but fundamentally we stay young at heart. Well Nellie likes to think so. Hayden’s grandparents live all the way up in Hull and Nellie was getting concerned about this. Grandma does not want to move from the house she has lived in for 53 years (who can blame her) and Hayden is settled in school, air cadets, surf life-saving etc etc here in the South. So how do we solve this ‘problem’ of moving times for the best of everyone? There is not an easy answer and what maybe good for one family may not work out for another. Here’s what Nellie did... She got Grandma and Grandad to buy a wonderful caravan on “Rockley Park”! Nellie had taken

us a few times to have a look around the site, so when Grandad suggested that the house was getting a bit too much for them, but Grandma did not want to sell or move, this seemed like a great solution - and it is! They can visit whenever they want, they have their own space with now a wonderful view of the sea, a beach with a cafe, the owner’s club, swimming pools and a gym. Not that we have used the latter yet... But what more can you want? There is a fishing lake for Dad, water sports facilities for Hayden, entertainment in the evenings, restaurants, fish and chips, pizzas that can be delivered to your door, a mini market and even crazy golf, archery and climbing. The yearly ground rent is quite sizable, but if we rent out the caravan for several weeks of the year we can hopefully cover some of those costs. Nellie had it all figured out. After the purchase Nellie took

Stephen, myself and Hayden to try it out. Well, it had to be done didn’t it! Stephen bought a 3 man blow up canoe from an advert on Facebook and off we set. We really do love it. The van is one row back from the front with a wonderful little balcony which is perfect for that cup of coffee, and a biscuit in Grandma’s case, whether the sun is shining or not. Which is just as well in November! A lazy morning was had by all and then we had the ‘bright idea’ to take the canoe out. That is where the fun started. I was all geared up in a life jacket and rather unflattering wet suit. How come Hayden looks so the part in his wet suit and I look something like a beached whale? Nellie found that funny too... But then she would. I would like to see her in one! Anyway off we trotted. It all seemed fine, leisurely, peaceful and just what we needed. Then, I saw the water - in the boat! “There is water coming in.” I voiced. “Don’t be silly Mum, it is just the splashing of the paddles.” was the rather unperturbed response from Hayden. “There is water coming in!” I expressed more loudly, “There is water coming in!” I repeated even louder. After the fourth, rather

agitated attempt I was finally believed! There were now at least three inches of water indeed IN the boat. Stephen and Hayden paddled like billy-o and we just made it to the shore before sinking entirely. I must have looked like an injured whale now, desperately trying to get out of a rubber boat almost totally submerged under the water. Stephen looked at me, “Oh yes, about that bung at the back...” He declared with an apologetic, appealing grin. It was all pretty funny really and I am sure the people on the beach found it rather amusing, to say the least. Maybe we should take some of those water sports lessons before embarking on anything more adventurous. The rest of the day was spent calming down and reading in the van. “The Retreat” we call it and it certainly is that. Grandma and Grandad have now been to stay too and have absolutely loved it. “I could live here.” Grandma smiled. Grandad smiled too. Maybe, Nellie has found that perfect solution for us, to a problem we did not think we could find. Good old Nellie! Whatever will she do next? By Debbie Corney

Act Now Before It’s Too Late When the Prime Minister announced a snap general election back in April, personal injury lawyers dared to hope that the so called “whiplash reforms”, would never again see the light of day.
claim. If this is also implemented then victims are unlikely to be able to access legal advice and assistance in pursuing a claim, which will leave many genuinely injured people without any hope of being compensated at all.
The Queen has since announced that legislation to modernise the courts system and help reduce motor insurance premiums will go ahead. These measures are expected to be introduced as part of the government’s new Civil Liability Bill, designed to address the “compensation culture” and crack down on fraudulent whiplash claims.
There is currently no clear indication as to when the Civil Liability Bill is likely to come into force. On the basis however that it is now looking likely, it is crucial to seek legal advice now if you have suffered an accident or injury for which you think you might be eligible to seek compensation.
Changes to be introduced by the Bill include the introduction of a fixed tariff of compensation for victims of whiplash injuries with a duration of up to two years. This is likely to see claimants who might currently be eligible to claim compensation in excess of £1,500 being paid just £225, a drop of significantly more than the projected £35 per year saving that they might see in their own insurance premium. The reforms could also go further and encompass proposals to increase the small claims thresholds to £5,000 for whiplash injuries and £2,000 for other types of personal injury

Gardening Tips
On Your Plot Feeling Fruity
Few flavours compare with that of fruit freshly picked from the garden. Much of the fruit available in the shops (particularly the supermarkets) has been grown for it’s ability to travel well rather than it’s flavour and may have been picked well before it’s arrival on the shelf. If you fancy apples from your own tree, or a bowl of raspberries fresh from the garden, now is the time to act.
Jobs for November :-
• Start to harvest parsnips after the first frosts. • Tidy up your greenhouse or polytunnel, wash out pots and seed trays before storing ready for the Spring • Sow hardy peas or broad beans ready for an early crop next year. • Use netting or chicken wire to protect your broccoli and cabbages from hungry pigeons. • If you haven’t already done so, plant garlic and shallots. • If your rhubarb is taking over, lift and divide the crowns before replanting.
If you are anything like me you will spend ages drooling over pictures of bushes dripping with blackcurrants or gooseberries, trees laden with apples, or bowls full of luscious raspberries but struggle to get to grips with the realities of production on your own plot! Patience is a virtue that is definitely required for growing your own, and this is particularly so with fruit trees and bushes. I have to confess to having an inclination to move on with anything that requires more than a few months to give a decent crop, but with most fruit you just have to force yourself to take the long term view and now being the proud owner of a 2 year old gooseberry bush and raspberry canes I can assure you that the waiting is worthwhile! Think carefully about where you will grow your fruit. Trees require lots of space (but are a wonderfully attractive addition to your plot) while bushes may be incorporated in your borders, but will probably need some protection if you aren’t going to loose a lot of fruit to the birds.
Late autumn is an ideal time to add fruit to your plot as trees and bushes will be entering their dormant period. It is important to buy healthy plants and to ensure that they are dormant as they will transplant more successfully. If you are ordering from a reputable mail order nursery they are likely to arrange delivery to coincide with the best time for planting. You should also get instruction on how to plant and care for your new tree or bush. Trees such as apple or plum may be grafted onto a variety of different rootstocks - this sounds complicated but all you really need to know is what effect this will have on the final size of the tree. If you have limited space it is possible to buy dwarf varieties some of which can even be suitable for container growing. Pollination is also an important consideration, some varieties are self-fertile and do not need a pollinator, while others may require another variety planted close by to act as a pollinator. When planting your tree out it may benefit from staking and protection around the base. One ‘fruit’ that is a little different and very easy to grow is Rhubarb. Rhubarb is actually classified as a vegetable, but certainly tastes good used like a fruit in crumbles and pies. November is the perfect time to plant out dormant crowns. Although these can be bought from nurseries Rhubarb tends to spread well when established and needs to be divided every few years so it is often possible to obtain surplus crowns from friends or neighbours. Plant your crown with the buds just above the soil and water well the first year. Once the plants have become established you can look forward to harvesting a good crop of delicious pink stems from Spring onwards very welcome as the first ‘fruit’ of the year.

Purbeck District Council welcomes Government consultation on new housing guidance New Government guidance on housing will be used to help shape the Purbeck Local Plan. The Government’s draft guidance has been released at a crucial time for the District Council, which is working towards its own consultation on the Local Plan. District Council Leader, Councillor Gary Suttle said: “We welcome the Government’s proposed new method of housing assessment which will result in a reduction in the number of new homes required throughout the District. The Council believes that these proposals will allow us to thoroughly examine the whole of the Local Plan.” In late 2016, the Council halted its partial review of the Local Plan to address a range of concerns identified during its 2016 consultation. Key to halting the review were concerns over the housing numbers contained in the Council’s 2016 consultation on the Plan. The Council was planning to carry out a full consultation on the Local Plan this autumn but, as the Government data was released later than expected, it will now take place in early 2018.
Councillor Suttle continued: “Obviously, the release of the new data impacts on the whole district. There is a lot of work to do around this and, as we have said previously, this is about the right number of houses in the right places. The Government’s new proposals allow us to ensure that this is the outcome for Purbeck” The updated Local Plan will determine where development can take place in the district, including locations for new homes and jobs. This brings significant challenges for the Council in seeking to preserve the beauty and diverse landscape of Purbeck, whilst also providing for future needs and enabling local communities to thrive.

An Evening with the most Notorious Female Spy in History Community News
Company Gavin Robertson presents ‘Mata Hari: Female Spy’
“I am a woman who enjoys herself very much; sometimes I lose, sometimes I win.” Mata Hari The Great War: while millions of men struggle and fight in the mud and hell of the trenches, one woman’s story begs to be told. Mata Hari, the most notorious female spy in history. Or was she? 100 years after her execution and inspired by her own words, this is her story. Performer Katharine Mary gives a powerful portrayal of a compelling woman, the world’s first femme fatale, in a brand new production which heads to Dorset for four nights this autumn with Artsreach, the counties touring arts charity. Join Mata Hari, dancer, lover, confidante and courtesan, as she reflects upon the events that have led her to the firing squad.

REACH OUT … in Purbeck It’s a shocking statistic that one million older people go for a month without speaking to anyone, and half of all older people consider the television as their main form of company. Age UK Dorchester offers a FREE ‘Reach Out’ service, which provides volunteers for older people who have become lonely and isolated, and which can occur for a variety of reasons such as bereavement, ill health, or loss of confidence. Volunteers play a key role in helping to re-establish social contacts, either by accompanying them to a local activity, or visiting them for a cup of tea and a chat. They can help people to find out about activities, groups and clubs in their area and to go along with them until they feel confident enough to do things by themselves. Age UK Dorchester is seeking potential volunteers in the Purbeck area, and they should enjoy meeting people, be a good listener and have about an hour a week to spare. If you would like to know more about the ‘Reach Out’ service in the Purbeck area or to volunteer for Age UK Dorchester in Purbeck, please contact: Jules Walker on 07342 883 844 j.walker@ageukdorchester.org.uk
