What's New this month - February 2010?

 

Please come to "A step Back in Time" Old Photographic Exhibition of Bere Regis on Monday 5th April, from 10am until 4pm at the Drax Hall. It's a wonderful opportunity to see hundreds of old images of the Village - some new and never seen before. There is a Photography Competition that Villagers can take part in too - all entries will be displayed at the Exhibition. All entries must be in by 14th March. Click here to find out more about the Exhibition & Photography Competition.

 

St John Ambulance is offering a free training programme to Informal Carers in Bere Regis and the surrounding areas. The Course will include a free lunch and is at the Drax Hall on Wednesday 31 March. Click the Logo above to find out more.

 

Dorset County Council is drafting a Cycling Strategy in conjunction with the boroughs of Bournemouth and Poole which will set the future direction for cycling in Dorset. They want you to help them define this Strategy - click the Bicycle above to find out how.

 

The famous Shitterton sign has gone missing again! People certainly like taking it as a memento of a faboulous name - however perhaps it's time we got something more permanent. Ian Ventham is very keen to install an attractive stone sign that will be very difficult to move. A local contractor of Purbeck Stone has quoted him £500 for the work. He is asking residents of Shitterton to consider donating £20 towards the work as a quality sign would fall outside of the remit of Purbeck District Council. If you would like to donate, please could you email Ian here to let him know your interest in helping. All non-Shitterton residents are more than welcome too!
