E a S T B O L D R E and Beyond E-Newsletter E a s t B o l d r e and beyond e-newsletter 05 April 2020 Hello Everyone This newsletter includes some local news and important Neighbourhood Watch items. Don’t forget to send in your notices and advertise your events in this free newsletter. And please tell your friends about it or forward a copy to them. They can request a copy on the village website using the link above. East Boldre Hedgehog Rescue is Remains Open East Boldre Hedgehog Rescue remains open for sick and injured hedgehogs and very soon orphans too. Protocol is in place for the current crisis. Call for details if you find a hedgehog that needs help. Hedgehogs are waking up from hibernation now and will be very thirsty so a dish of fresh water would be appreciated. If you start to see hedgehog poo or you know you have visiting hedgehogs, some dry cat food or hedgehog dry food will help them get back on their paws and prepare them for courting. If you're gardening please check for hedgehogs before you strim or mow long grass. An ideal sleeping place for hedgehogs who will just curl up not run away from the danger. Bonfires are also hedgehog hotels so check before lighting for residents. For advice on any hedgehog situation call and leave a message, text or email me on the details below. Kind regards Louise Godden East Boldre Hedgehog Rescue Pages Lane, East Boldre SO42 7WG 07595709617 [email protected] Find us on Facebook East Boldre Emergency Plan – Keep Yourself Safe While Helping Others Here is a message from Mike Upton, Emergency Plan Coordinator. I do hope that you are keeping well. Also don’t forget that if you are isolating yourself there are others that can help you with shopping etc. I just wanted to bring to your attention the need to protect both the isolating or vulnerable person and yourself when providing any assistance. This includes the need for distancing and hand washing and only providing help if you are below 70 years of age and in good health with no underlying conditions. Another issue that may arise is a request to transport someone to the doctors or to hospital for an appointment or tests. In this instance please get advice from their doctor before considering offering transport. If Coronavirus is suspected, the NHS should provide appropriate transport. The standing advice is not to undertake a car journey with anyone that you are not living with and you should not put yourself at risk in this way. Government guidance on providing assistance during the current crisis is given at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-how-to-help-safely-- 2/coronavirus-how-to-help-safely If you have any questions on this, please let me know. This is all new to me as well, but I will try to help. Getting Bored Stuck at Home? Read a book by a Local Author. The kids will love ‘Who’s Oliver?’ by Brian Dawtrey. You can buy it on Amazon. Here is a complete list of Brian’s books on Amazon. And you can find books by other local authors on the village website. Police Beat Surgeries Here is a message from the local police: In line with government advice and the latest information from Public Health England about keeping our communities and our staff safe, we have decided to postpone all of our Beat surgeries and public meetings for the foreseeable future. However, we are all still on duty and you can contact us via email, telephone or through our Facebook page. If you haven’t already, please like and share our Facebook page and get as many of your friends and family to do the same. It’s an excellent way for us to keep you up to date with what we do and for us to be able to pass on important information to you immediately, especially during this difficult time. You can find us on Facebook at ‘NEW FOREST HEART COPS’ We will also be holding two online Beat Surgeries in April. They will be 6:30 pm on Wednesday 8th April and at 3:00 pm on Wednesday 22nd April. Just go to our Facebook page NEW FOREST HEART COPS and you’ll be able to ask us questions without leaving the house. And please keep monitoring the Government website for all the latest on what we all need to be doing at this time. As police we will be out on patrol asking people to adhere to these guidelines because by staying home we keep everyone safe, and that’s all that really matters at this time isn’t it. Neighbourhood Watch Criminal Damage Continues in East Boldre Here is a message from East Boldre Parish Council The Police have had a lot of reports of criminal damage in the village and have been following up this week. East Boldre is now a key area for community Policeman, Jason Eastwood. If you can get evidence like photographs or film footage of the people committing crimes, please send them directly to Jason or Vicki Pressey at the e-mail addresses below. It’s such a shame that this is all happening at this worrying time. The Parish council had plans to develop more community initiatives to deter such behaviour along with the help of Jason and Vicki (PcSO). This will now be delayed until current restrictions are lifted. Please can everyone be vigilant and please carry on reporting every single incident; this is how police build a picture and record for evidence. [email protected] (Tel: 07979 707939) [email protected] (Tel: 07785 500952) Thank you and stay safe! Nicola Curzon(Mrs) Parish Clerk A few days later, Nicola wrote again: The parish council are very disappointed to report that there has been yet more criminal damage in the village. Five glass panels on the BT kiosk outside the School Fields Trust Hall have been smashed. This is particularly upsetting because the council has just paid to have the kiosk renovated in order to house another defibrillator for the village. If anyone knows who is responsible for these mindless acts of criminal damage, please can you inform Jason Eastwood and Vicki Pressey, our community police officers. Please can you also ensure that every single case of criminal damage is reported correctly to the police using the phone number 101. We need to work together to get to the bottom of this. Many thanks Nicola Curzon Parish Clerk Having read about vandalism in the village, Bob King wrote: Such depressing news to keep reading that you are suffering so much from vandalism. A sad reflection of life today. Such a lovely village hall where you hosted 84 Sqn at the time of its 100th anniversary in January 2017. Bob King, ex OC 84 Sqn 1983-85 On a Brighter Note, Nicola Wrote: Over the past year the Parish Council has worked hard to create an emergency plan for the village. Led by Mike Upton, the plan went live in January. The parish council would like to say a huge thank you to all volunteers in the village who are working tirelessly to ensure that all vulnerable residents are safe. It is amazing to see everyone pulling together to support others during the Covid 19 crisis. The parish council had published a list of other voluntary groups offering help during the crisis on the latest news section of the website. Nicola Curzon Parish Clerk Other News from The New Forest Police Burglaries: One house has been burgled this month. It was a holiday let just outside Brockenhurst and although nothing was stolen quite a large amount of damage was done when the offenders broke in. Ten outbuildings, garages and sheds were broken into in March. The worst theft saw over £6,000 worth of tools taken from a property on the outskirts of Lyndhurst and over £3,000 worth from another theft in Copythorne. Two large secure containers were targeted at Exbury Gardens and other thefts took place in Minstead, Brockenhurst, Ashurst, Colbury and Woodlands. A quad bike was stolen during a burglary at a hotel on the Rhinefield Ornamental Drive, but because it had been fitted with a tracker it was easily recovered by us and returned to its owners. Theft from Motor Vehicles: 12 vehicles have been broken into this month, three of which were parked overnight at the Travelodge at Stoney Cross. If you know anyone who uses that hotel, will you please tell them that it’s regularly targeted by thieves. The other vehicles broken into were mostly work vans parked in Lyndhurst, Bartley, Minstead, East Boldre and Fritham. Only two vehicles parked in New Forest car parks were broken into this month - they were in Millyford Bridge and Fritham. A van was also stolen this month from an industrial unit at Ower. The vehicle was full of white goods but on a cycle patrol of the area the following day we found the van burnt out in a field not too far away but the white goods had been “hidden” nearby and are now back with their rightful owners. Can you help us identify those responsible for a series of incidents in East Boldre? Over the past month there has been damage caused to the Village hall roof, the bus stop opposite the Post Office and some of the sheds on the allotments. One of the sheds was dragged into the village and set fire too.

  • The Lymington River – Boldre
    The Lymington River – Boldre An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – December 2008 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on the Lymington River at Boldre in the New Forest, Hampshire. The water is in the ownership of the Barker Mill Estates and has not been used or actively managed as a fishery for a number of years. The report covers a stretch of approximately 800m of double bank fishing from Boldre Bridge downstream. The bottom boundary is approximately 2km upstream of the tidal hatches in Lymington. This report was carried out at the request of Kit Layman. Mr Layman is acting as an advisor to the Barker Mill family and is seeking to ensure that the river is well managed and reaches its full fishery potential. The bottom boundary of the fishery at Boldre Bridge is immediately upstream of waters controlled by the Brockenhurst and Manor Fly Fishing Club (BMFFC). The BMFFC have controlled fishing rights over a long stretch of the Lymington River for many years. The club have expressed an interest in leasing the rights from the Barker Mill Estate and were represented during the site visit by the club’s treasurer Mr David Sargeaunt. The comments and recommendations made in this report are based on the observations of the Trust’s Conservation Officer, Andy Thomas and discussions with Mr Layman, representing the fishery owners and Mr Sargeaunt from the BMFFC. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream 2.

  • Respiratory Symptoms in the Elderly and Their Clinical Significance in the Recognition of Asthma
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS IN THE ELDERLY AND THEIR CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE IN THE RECOGNITION OF ASTHMA A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Medicine JOHN ROBERT HORSLEY FACULTY OF MEDICINE 1990 © UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF MEDICINE GERIATRIC MEDICINE Doctor of Medicine RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS IN THE ELDERLY AND THEIR CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE IN THE RECOGNITION OF ASTHMA by John Robert Horsley This study was carried out to estimate the prevalence of respiratory symp- toms amongst the elderly in the community and relate symptoms to objective lung function measurements, including bronchial hyperreactivity. A respir- atory symptoms questionnaire was sent to 2011 subjects (957 male) drawn by age-stratified random sampling from the age-sex registers of 4 group practices in Lymington, Sway and Brockenhurst. All were age >65 yrs (mean 77 ± 8 yrs; oldest 102 yrs) representing a 1 ;3.3 sample. 1803 (90%) replied, 1665 from the first mailing and a further 138 after a reminder (96% response excluding 136 who had died or moved). The accuracy of replies was verified for a randomly selected 20%, either by formal interview or telephone. Only 14% were current smokers. Morning chest tightness was experienced by 203 (11.3%), lasting > 1 hour in 44; 131 (7.3%) had episodes of nocturnal breathlessness; 437 (24.2%) experienced occasional wheezing. Only 296 (16.4%) had chronic bronchitis and 151 (8.4%) gave a history of asthma, of whom half (76) had active asthma. 489 (27.1%) had seen their doctor with chest symptoms within the preceding 2 years. Sub-dividing by symptoms: I No respiratory symptoms 715 (40%) II Exertional dyspnoea only 185 (10%) III Wheeze, cough or mild chest tightness 289 (16%) IV Symptoms of bronchial irritability 519 (29%) V Unclassified (incomplete questionnaires) 95 (5%) A random sample from each of groups I-IV was invited for examination, spirometry and methacholine inhalation bronchial challenge.

The day I was 16 when the war started. (chuckle) The war started for us actually two days’ earlier on September the 1st with the evacuation of children from all over the country. Our lot came from Portsmouth and one of the many things as a councillor, my father, had to organize. He took over Beaulieu Road station, and the trains came loaded with children, all with labels on them, and they were bussed (cough) into various halls around the Forest for distribution to families. The first lot – the first day was alright, they were all children. The second day, were the mothers and children. They were far more trouble. Anyway, we got back from doing that – got home and discovered that three little girls had taken over what had been our nursery and those little girls, like most of the others, they stayed with us right until the war ended.
