    Invitation to tender Plan your day at the Visitor Information Centre, New Forest Centre Introduction The Department of Transport has awarded funding to Hampshire County Council, New Forest NPA, South Downs NPA, together with the highway authorities of Brighton & Hove, East Sussex, West Sussex, Surrey and Wiltshire to develop initiatives to reduce the impact of traffic on the two National Parks. The funding has been awarded through the Local Sustainable Transport Fund (LSTF) and will allow the Authorities to focus on: Improving key public transport services in to the two National Parks Making it easy to reach visitor attractions within the two National Parks Promoting travel by cycle, bus and rail to and around the National Parks Managing traffic effectively within the Parks, so that it does not detract from the visitors’ experience As part of this funding, we seek to install a ‘plan your day’ interactive area within the New Forest Centre, Lyndhurst. Part of the Centre acts as the Visitor Information Centre for the New Forest destination, and is the only remaining one staffed by New Forest District Council in their destination management capacity. The Centre received 230,000 visitors in 2014, and there is considerable scope to convey sustainable transport messages within the information and itinerary ideas offered. The plan your day area will complement print and face to face information by offering access to digital based content on sustainable ways of enjoying the New Forest. The plan your day interactive will enable visitors to access: Maps Walking routes Cycling routes Itinerary ideas using sustainable transport Information on the New Forest Tour, a flagship open top bus tour around the Park Video content on sustainable transport experiences Other related information as agreed We are also interested in the possibility of: Integration with National Park social media channels The plan your day interactive will be accompanied by WiFi access for visitors and associated graphics.

    NEW FOREST HEART Monthly Beat Report – March 2021 Once again, at the time of writing, we are still under COVID-19 restrictions. The best way to keep up to date with all the latest news on the Government’s roadmap out of lockdown is to read the latest on their website (www.gov.uk). Thank you Several fines were issued to those breaking the COVID-19 regulations in March. They included a family of four who had driven to Boltons Bench from Dorset, a professional hairdresser who was still working from home in Woodlands, a man who had driven from Dorset to Hythe to visit his family and another two familes who had driven from Poole to go for a walk at Denny Wood and the Canadian War Memorial. Beat Surgeries We will be holding two more of our SAFE AT HOME EVENTS in April 2021. If you, or someone you know, needs our help and it is easier to visit us in person we will be outside the COMMUITY CENTRE in LYDHURST at 3pm on Tuesday 6th April 2021 and outside the CO OP in ASHURST at 10am on Wednesday 21st April 2021 Seven sheds, garages and outbuildings were broken into during March with Bramshaw, Lyndhurst, Bartley, Fletchwood Lane and Emery Down the areas targeted. A man has been arrested and charged with stealing a Quad bike from a house in Ashurst. The Quad bike has also been returned to the owner. Thirteen vehicles were broken into last month, with the two car parks targeted being Wilverly Inclosure and the one attached to the Premier Inn at Ower where three vans were attacked on the same night.

Mr. Frank Warren writes concerning Mr. FusselFs article (Vol. XVII, p. 286) : " Richard Stratton of Broad Hinton, and Salthrop, Wiltshire (who lies buried in Winchester Cemetery), bought in 1859 the first Fowler steam plough for use on his farms. His son, James Stratton, came to farm Chilcombe, Winchester, in 1866 and introduced steam ploughing to Hampshire." CORRECTION.
