We’re pleased to share that two new memorial totem poles have been installed at Poole and Wimborne, offering families a special place to remember loved ones.

Bronze plaques can be added to these totems, so you have a dedicated space to come and remember your loved ones. The new installations are located in two peaceful areas: near the pond and in our dedicated scattering area, Badgers Wood.

If you’d like to learn more about memorial options at Poole & Wimborne, feel free to get in touch or speak to a member of our team.

Let’s protect our wild spaces, together.
At Poole & Wimborne, our meadows are left wild to encourage thriving habitats for birds, insects and native species. But during hot, dry spells, these areas are more susceptible to wildfire.

Help us keep everyone safe by:
🌼 Disposing of litter in bins provided
🌼 Fully extinguishing ci******es
🌼 Recycling glass responsibly and ensuring no glass items are left on memorials

In an emergency, please call 999 immediately and alert one of our team.
Your small actions make a big difference for local wildlife and everyone who visits. 💚

With views like this, it's hard to not be a morning person!

Jack Frost may have dusted the grounds today, but that doesn't stop the local deer from coming to take a look around. Moments like this can't stop us from taking a moment, to reflect, pause, and enjoy the moment.

Next time you stop by make sure to take a moment for yourself, whether it is to remember your loved one, take in the scenery or just feel at ease 🌲🦌♥️
