It is too early yet to evaluate whether these services are effective in reducing the pressures on GPs and in A&E departments, which have been so widely publicised in the media. But we think this innovative approach should be a win/win for both patients and clinicians.

  • History and Heritage
    People have lived in the area now called Bournemouth since at least the Late Upper Palaeolithic when there was a reindeer hunters’ camp at Hengistbury Head. By 1800, there were farms within the heathland at Stourfield and Littledown. Most people, however, lived in the hamlets along the Stour valley between Wick and Kinson. Apart from Kinson which was in Dorset, the area was mainly within the parishes of Holdenhurst and Christchurch. The Bourne stream gave local fishermen and smugglers a place to beach their boats and an easy route inland to Kinson and past Hurn. The 1802 Christchurch Inclosure Act allowed local landowners to buy large areas of the heathlands. Lewis Tregonwell leased land from Sir George Ivison Tapps in 1810 and built ABOVE his house (now the Royal Exeter Turbary Common – part of the original Hotel). By 1838, the marine village of heathland from which the local people Bourne opened its first hotel. In 1856, collected fuel, especially turves the Bournemouth Improvement Act allowed the town to start its separate existence. LEFT Extract from the 1805 Enclosure map showing the location of Tregonwell’s house and the Bourne stream HISTORY AND HERITAGE This Theme includes the following Sub-Themes. Historical setting The Christchurch Inclosure Act 1802 The Early Road Patterns The Marine Village Establishment as a town The Tithe Map It also includes as an Appendix the tithe apportionments for Holdenhurst, Kinson and the parts of Christchurch which much later became Bournemouth Historical setting The village of Holdenhurst has been described as the Mother of Bournemouth. Arguably the real mother of Bournemouth is the Bourne stream.

  • When Television Came to Moordown
    WHEN TELEVISION CAME TO MOORDOWN An Essay by Alex McKinstry ------------------ Please note - this is only a DRAFT VERSION of the final essay, which is still very much a 'work in progress'. The draft below is released at this time to - hopefully - help stimulate folks' memories of those halcyon days!... If you do have any recollections how early TV impacted upon your world in the 40s, 50s or 60s, Alex would love to have your memories and anecdotes, so that they can be added to the record of our local TV 'history '.... You can contact Alex by email at : [email protected] ....or by telephone on: 07977 782 673 Just scroll down to the next page to read Alex' fascinating story.... WHEN TELEVISION CAME TO MOORDOWN Though it is widely known that Guglielmo Marconi, the wireless pioneer, carried out some of his first transmissions at Sandbanks in the 1890s, what is less commonly known is that John Logie Baird visited Bournemouth several times in the 1920s – obtaining advice and financial backing from Sydney Moseley, his friend and future biographer, who lived in Christchurch Road. ‘He never did any of his actual experimenting here,’ recalled Moseley in later life, ‘but he got many of his ideas in Bournemouth’;1 and as if to prove it, a faded photo of the two men, strolling along Undercliffe Drive, appeared in The Bournemouth Times of 1 November 1957. It is also worth noting that in 1930, demonstrations of Baird’s ‘televisor’ were given at the drill hall in Holdenhurst Road, setting for that year's Ideal Home Exhibition.

  • Discussion Paper March, 2017
    Discussion Paper March, 2017 Risk of loneliness among older people in Bournemouth and Poole Research shows that chronic loneliness can result in deterioration of health and well-being and also reduce life expectancy. This paper examines, at neighbourhood and ward levels, the risk that older people in Bournemouth and Poole are often lonely. Unless otherwise stated, “older” means aged 65 or over. We use the term “conurbation” to refer to Bournemouth and Poole together. Note that “risk” is not the same as ”count”. Individual risk reflects the likelihood that an older person will be lonely often. Areas with moderate average risks may have relatively high expected counts if they contain very large numbers of older people. This paper is mainly concerned with risk at Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) level but planners may be interested in expected counts both at this level and Ward level. We therefore also examine modelled expected counts. Key Points: There are eight Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs) in the conurbation which are in the worst national decile for risk of being lonely often. Five of these are in Bournemouth and three are in Poole. The seven wards (20% of them) in the conurbation with highest risk are: Boscombe West (Bournemouth), Central (Bournemouth), Newtown (Poole), Westbourne & Westcliff (Bournemouth), Town Centre (Poole), Kinson North (Bournemouth) and Alderney (Poole). The seven wards with the highest expected count are Westbourne & Westcliff (Bournemouth), Kinson North (Bournemouth), Newtown (Poole), East Southbourne (Bournemouth), Canford Cliffs (Poole), Town Centre (Poole) and Parkstone (Poole). Thus four wards: Newtown, Westbourne & Westcliff, Town Centre and Kinson North have relatively high risks and counts.

    Impact Report 2019/20 Summary of Surviving Winter Appeal and Grant Distribution Our public appeal and corresponding fund supported older and vulnerable people in fuel poverty. Driven by the shocking statistics that there are over 730 deaths every winter *, the Foundation encourages people in receipt of Winter Fuel Payment to consider re-cycling it and donating to help someone in need in Dorset. During the winter of 2019/20 Dorset Community Foundation raised £85,980 from 359 donors helping 238 local residents. Many older people are at risk if they cannot afford to adequately heat their homes, particularly if they have health conditions that are exacerbated by the cold. “I live alone am disabled due to accident and suffer lasting effects from cancer. My house is cold due to two old storage heaters. I have no money to improve my heating or lifestyle, the cold makes my disability worse. The grant will help me deal with the added costs of trying to keep warm this winter.” The grants enable older and vulnerable residents to switch on their heating and pay their fuel bills without worrying about the cost of fuel, which they might not be abe to afford. “The grant will allow me to keep heating on more than once every two days and significantly reduce the adverse impact the cold has on my health. I will also be able to cook more hot meals.” To award grants across Dorset, the Foundation worked with Citizens Advice in Dorset (CAID) and the Centre for Sustainable Energy. Both organisations provided further fuel poverty support to the grant recipients.

The borough forms part of a larger conurbation know as Bournemouth and Poole or south east Dorset. After Bristol, the conurbation is the second largest urban area in the region. The borough is bounded by Poole, Christchurch and East Dorset districts to the west, east and north respectively. To the south is Poole Bay. The northern boundary follows the River Stour. Historically, Bournemouth is relatively new town. In 2010 it celebrated its bicentenary. Figure 1 below shows the growth in population terms of the borough since the early part of the 19 th century. Over the years it has outgrown its more historic neighbours.
