Celebrating Poundbury Magazine Issue 5: Celebrating 25 years of Poundbury | Seite 2

WELCOME TO Celebrating Poundbury E WWW.CHERRYADE.STORE 180 BRIDPORT ROAD, POUNDBURY FOR LIFE AND HOME ach year, the community in Poundbury continues to grow as quickly as the houses spread throughout the Northern East Quadrant. This issue, I am pleased to welcome more families, interesting new residents as well as lots of new businesses. Our New Business section is expanding every issue and in the next six months even more businesses will be opening in the Buttermarket and other commercial areas of Poundbury. You can read all about The Great Field Exhibition in this issue and find out how you can have your say on which facilities are built on this iconic playing area. As a resident of Poundbury with a young family myself, I am really excited about the prospect of new community facilities and the further development of this beautiful space. This issue we also welcome the new Dorchester Community Church, next to Damers First School, which will hopefully open early in the new year and bring a raft of new people to Poundbury. In the news section you'll see I'm embarking on a huge cycling challenge with nine others from The Duchy of Cornwall. Please do support us to raise money for this really important children's hospice. We will be holding a series of fundraising events so watch this space. As we approach Christmas I wish you a merry Christmas and look forward to 2018.
