Villager 254 July 2016 The Villager Villager No. 254 July 2016 The next copy date will be 19th August with anticipated delivery during week of 5th September , the following will be 7th October for 24th October delivery Moviola takes a rest through the summer but will be back with more great films to enjoy. Lots of our clubs also break during the summer but W. I. and Gardening Club carry on all year round. Great to see some many actors and actresses in Motcombe - do try and pop along to see Abigail’s Party - the scenery certainly brings back memories of the 70’s!! We are a bit concerned that people in the local community are not aware of the proposed changes to the status of the Westminster Memorial Hospital. This is our local community hospital serving Shaftesbury, Gillingham and the surrounding areas. It provides inpatient facilities providing rehabilitation and palliative care for local patients. There is a dedicated nursing and therapy team providing personalised care to sometimes the most vulnerable in our community. The clinical commissioning group are proposing the closure of these inpatient beds and the public need to be well informed. Please visit www.dorsetvision.nhs.uk to have your say, and please share this post. http://www.dorsetsvision.nhs.uk/ Our back page carries a transcript of a recent BBC News story on this topic. Articles can be handed to Gail or Mike or delivered to the following:Winters Grace, Elm Hill, Motcombe or e-mail [email protected] telephone 01747 850865 or Motcombe Community Shop, or Tanders, Elm Hill Motcombe (852545 ) Motcombe Gardening Club Our talk in June by Stephen Griffith (best known as Head Gardener at Abbotsbury Gardens) about the Coastal Plants and Gardens of Croatia, with photographs to set the scene and show off some of the plants, was very interesting and much enjoyed by everyone. Perhaps it even stimulated some ideas about visiting the area which looked beautiful. Then this week we had an expert from Brinsmore Gardens, Adam Wallis, showing us a great selection of plants as well as giving plenty of information and advice on Plants for North Facing sites and shady places. This proved to be popular and some members took the opportunity to buy some of these specialist plants. It was an excellent talk. Our stall at the village Fete, the coconut shy, was brightened up by some token hats for the coconuts and we were part of another successful Village event. Thank you to those who helped out on the day. Our August meeting is, as usual, our Summer Show. So please make a note of the date Saturday 6th August at the Village Hall. Entries need to be in by midday on Wednesday 3rd August. On show day the setting up of the entries can be done 08.00-10.00 and judging follows this. Then the doors will open at 14.00 for everyone to come and see the various displays. This is an open show so anyone can enter and if you have not got a schedule and would like one please phone me. We all look forward to the show as it gives us all the chance to put some flowers/produce/handicrafts/photographs on display for all to enjoy. Lets hope we have good weather before the day so there are plenty of things in the garden to choose from - but whatever the weather it will be fun. Our September talk is by Peter Prideaux entitled 'A Family Firm' about the history of Cases Meat Factory which was based where Prideaux Drive and Summer Oaks are now. This should be very interesting particularly to all of us who live locally. Meanwhile the garden demands plenty of attention and for all those who attend the monthly meetings Tom’s Tips are greatly valued. I gather some Petunias are growing on apace while others are still rather small - as Tom says, feed them. Tomorite seems to do the trick - follow the diluting instructions carefully! I look forward to seeing you all on the 6th August. Please contact me with any queries. Bev West Show Secretary 858981 [email protected] Motcombe Village Magazine 254 Page 2 July 2016 Welcome We would like to extend a very warm welcome to Jan Cuthbert who has moved to Motcombe to be nearer to her family - we hope you will be very happy here. Motcombe Play Area We should like to put the record straight by stating that the donation of £96.19 mentioned in the June issue of The Villager from Motcombe WI to Motcombe Play Area, was in fact money donated by villagers for refreshments whilst attending the Motcombe Neighbourhood Plan meetings. The WI willingly gave their time for this event. The Committee, Motcombe WI. Christian Aid This year's Motcombe Lent Lunch at Shaftesbury Town Hall raised £378 and the Christian Aid Week collection raised £428. Thank you to everyone who helped support these events. We are always looking for more helpers, so if you would like to take part in these events next year please ring Anne Wilkins to find out more (852257) Step by Step Could you support a young person facing homelessness? Step by Step are a Supported Lodging Service who have recently won a contract to run a service in Shaftesbury and Gillingham. The service aims to help 16-21 year olds in need of housing. They would be housed within the community in people’s homes who can offer them a small amount of support each week with basic living skills and a safe place to live. These are young people who are leaving care or have a broken relationship with their family but are not yet ready to live independently. If you think you could help please call 07843 261350, email: [email protected] or visit www.stepbystep.org.uk . Motcombe Village Magazine 254 Page 3 July 2016 Defibrillator As most of you know, we have a defibrillator positioned outside the shop.

What to do when someone has a cardiac arrest or experiences symptoms associated with a heart attack Check whether the patient is:- conscious, has chest pains often radiating down the left arm, is short of breath and has cold clammy skin or unconscious and you suspect breathing has stopped:- Shout for help. Ring 999 when the call taker will instruct the caller on carrying out effective cardiopulmonary resuscitation until the emergency services arrive Ring a number from the defibrillator contacts and state clearly your location Unlock the front door and turn on lights if necessary DEFIBRILLATOR CONTACT NUMBERS Simon Shelley 850498 Sarah James 854615 Kate Cuthbert 851128 Hilary Bromley 854189 Lynda Maynard 855070 Graham Dunlop 228581 Christine Davies 855738 Janet Odell 850697 Bridget Shaw 855615 Ben Burke at the Coppleridge 851980 Liz Pocock 852647 Sarah James is happy to be contacted but best to ring the shop during her working hours and they can alert her next door. Motcombe Village Magazine 254 Page 4 July 2016 Motcombe Community Players bring you their Summer Show Be transported back to a Spring evening in 1977 somewhere east of London, where obnoxious Beverly (Joni Clowrey – ‘Daisy Pulls it Off) and highly strung Laurence (Mark Blackham – The Sourcerer) are hosting a dinner party for their new neighbours, talkative nurse Angela (Kate Kirpatrick – Blackadder) and tight-lipped Tony (John Laing – Flint Street Nativity). They have also invited their nervous divorced neighbour Sue (Wendy Ibboston - Flint Street Nativity) because her fifteen year old daughter Abigail is hosting her own party just a few doors away. As the cheesy pineapple sticks are nibbled and the alcohol flows, the initially stiff and polite group slowly lose their inhibitions and together they play out the drinks party from hell. Abigail’s Party is brought to you by Motcombe Community Players and is being shown at Motcombe Memorial Hall on: Friday 29th and Saturday 30th of July Doors open 7pm performance at 7.30pm. Tickets on sale at Motcombe Village Shop. Contact Wendy at [email protected] for more information. Will you be joining the party?

  • Edition 284 October 2020
    The Villager Edition 284 October 2020 Usually at this time we would be planning for the Villager Coffee Morning but with the Covid regulations we are not able to hold the event this year - so very disappointing! This is the only fund raising event we hold to keep production running and we would be very grateful if any readers would like to make a donation - email [email protected] for donation points. Thank you for your support. Lots of groups and classes are now back in the Hall so we have included the timetable of regular events - but please be aware these could change if the Covid guidelines are altered. Please ensure all articles are sent to the Villager inbox not any other email address as they can so easily be missed.

Allistair served on the Parish Council for over eleven years as both a Councillor and Chairman. He was a larger-than-life character with a commanding presence, he used both humour and firmness to keep council meetings under control and working to time. Born in Herefordshire he was however a proud Orcadian, returning to Orkney as often as he could with his wife Anita.
