The Heritage Coast U3A welcomes Julie Hammon, the ‘Stepping Into Nature’ Project Officer for the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to its meeting on Wednesday, August 9.
Julie will present an illustrated talk called ‘Why living in the Dorset AONB is good for you’.
The Dorset AONB, covering more than 40 per cent of the county, from Lyme Regis to Poole Harbour and from Blandford to Chesil Beach, is the fifth largest of the 46 AONBs in the UK.
The Dorset AONB Partnership brings together 20 organisations to care for the area and to keep this nationally important landscape in good shape for future generations to enjoy.
