October’s issue – read all about it …

Date:

This month’s issue is a delightful mix of everything – think of it as a sweet tin full of buttons.


Somerset Confidential investigated the case for a new air ambulance by DSAA – a fascinating deep dive. We also cover TWO rogue trader cases scamming vulnerable Dorset residents out of more than £150,000 for unnecessary, shoddy work.

Farming’s shifting into high gear (you can tell harvest’s done): Andrew Livingston may have sparked a movement (we’re sensing a real campaign brewing here at BV HQ), NFU county chair Tim Gelfs is taking on climate change – and dramatic TV graphics – and George Hosford is shopping for combines based on their ability to not spill his tea.

There are stellar local business stories, a fiery letters page (the fallout from last month’s story), a smorgasbord of community news bites, and a wild love triangle that had Dorchester agog in 1901.

It’s all Dorset, and all yours! 🙂

Never printed. Occasionally argued over. Always Dorset.
The BV October issue – digital-only and always free.
