  • The Ensbury Park Racecourse and Airfield Bournemouth
    The Ensbury Park Racecourse and Airfield Bournemouth John Barker BOURNEMOUTH LOCAL STUDIES PUBLICATIONS 12 Glencoe Road Bournemouth BH7 YBE No. 729 The Author John Barker, BA, C.Eng, MIMechE, was born in London and moved to Bournemouth in December 1940 when he was 11 years old. He attended Bournemouth School from January 1941 to December 1945. After service in the Royal Navy he worked for a local timber firm, Sherry & Haycock, and then for Foster Wheeler during the construction of their new Fawley Oil Refinery. In December 1951 he joined the Ministry of Supply at the Military Engineering Experimental Establishment at Christchurch, where he remained until he retired in 1989. His other publications in this series are: "Meyrick Park Halt", "Military Engineering at Christchurch Barracks", "Lady Georgiana Fullerton", and "Christchurch Barracks". Acknowledgements This book is based on some papers found by my wife in a collection of documents outlining the development of various districts of Bournemouth which were given to the Bournemouth Local Studies Group and formed the core of a talk, called "Over the Sticks and Into the Air", given to the Group in May 1993. Much of the information, particularly on land purchases and transfers, was collected and collated by Mr. Michael Stead to whom I am indebted for permission to use it. I am also grateful to Mrs Martin, Mr. Etches' daughter, who has allowed me to reproduce some of her photographs; to Mrs Braithwaite, a long time resident of Hill View Road, for her memories of the area before the race course was built; to Mrs Ann Norbury, the Poole Archivist, for allowing me access to the minutes of the Poole Rural District Council; to the Jockey Club for excerpts from the Racing Calendar; and to the Public Records Office, Kew, for the records of RAF stations.

  • 24 January 2006
    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.
