TVRA are thrilled to introduce a brand new initiative brought to you by CommUNIty – a partnership between Talbot Village residents and Bournemouth University. A whole series of events are being set up which will be packed with opportunities to connect, learn and grow together!
There will be a wide range of free sessions and activities designed to benefit everyone:
Actual Events will be listed below as they are organised. Most will likely take place in a venue situated in the Bournemouth University campus (a map can be found here), but details will be provided against each event itself. Most events will be entirely free for residents of the village, so please invite your neighbours as well as attending yourself.
Reports on previous events can be found in the previous events section following the upcoming events section (quickly find using the button above) , so that if that event comes around again you can get a better idea if it is suitable for you.
In the latest of our CommUNIty events, Layne Hamerston, BU Community Partnership Manager, led a session in how to live a more active and beneficial lifestyle. Through examples and even a bit of practical exercises, he demonstrated how we can all live a more active and heathier life.
He detailed a lot of upcoming activities and initaitives that the University have planned for us, some of which are already detailed on this page. Keep your eye on this website and the Notice Boards for further details.

The first interactive CommUNIty event took place in the Fusion Building last night. I think we were all impressed with the quality of the lecture theatre we visited.
Layne Hamerston, BU Community Partnership Manager, led the session. He showed us a video of the Universities vision, and also explained his ambition and desire to explore closer ties with the local community, especially here in the village.
He detailed a lot of upcoming activities and initaitives that the University have planned for us, some of which are already detailed on this page. He also asked for suggestions for activities from the attendees, and a very useful and enthusiastic two way session took place exploring future possibilities. More to follow on this. Keep your eye on this website and the Notice Boards for further details.
Students from Bournemouth University hosted our inaugural CommUNIty event at the Student Centre on the Talbot Campus. They provided cake and a cup of tea or coffee for the residents who came along. It was very nice to meet both the students and other fellow residents.
Gillian Lewis, the Community Partnerships lead also organised a tour of the campus for residents. We visited a number of buildings including the impressive Fusion building and even saw Dylan’s Bar!!
It is worth remembering that all coffee shops and food venues, plus the shop are open to the general public if you wish to visit. I can heartily recommend the fish and chips in the Fusion Building (a Friday speciality)!!
