AUTUMN LEAVES

OVER 50’S CLUB

What a lovely afternoon we had at Autumn Leaves in May!

Andrew Cannon brought his clever keyboard with its great
backing sounds, and played some wonderful songs from popular singers like
Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. We then enjoyed joining in with lots of well-
known sing-along songs and even had a little bit of dancing!
It was so successful that we are going to ask him back again!
Don’t miss out next month!

Our speaker on 13 June is Mary Graham, who gave us a really interesting talk
th
last year and is returning to tell us about the Dorset Doctor Detective. Sounds
interesting!
Come and join us for afternoon tea. Bring a friend!

BERE REGIS WILDLIFE
GROUP

The sun is out, butterflies are on the wing, the cuckoo
has been heard, the swallows and house martins have
arrived – so, it must be early summer! But where are the
swifts? Hope fully we’ll see them soon. Enjoy the
warmer weather, and do come along to our summer
events.

Summer Events
You are very welcome to join us at the second of our summer events – a short talk
and a guided walk led by Sean Couch from Natural England. The walk will take us
onto the lower part of Black Hill and be specifically looking at and learning about
veteran and ancient trees. These trees are of particular wildlife value and much
enjoyed by villagers and visitors for their impressive stature and beauty. The event is
on Saturday 16th June, meeting at the Drax Hall at 10.00 am. We hope that this
event will enable us to survey and identify other veteran and ancient trees within
the Parish.
We are planning other events over the coming summer months, so watch this
space for further news of these.
