Two members of the Wimborne Model Town management committee have stood down as the attraction’s season draws to a close.
Chairman Iain Stevenson and marketing services provider Greg Hoar are stepping down after the completion of the charity’s 70th year of events.
Both joined as trustees in 2012 with Iain later becoming chairman, overseeing financial improvements leading to reinvestment in infrastructure and new exhibits, including the Wareham Bears. He remains as a volunteer.

Greg became general manager in 2015 and latterly marketing services provider, bringing the 1/10th scale 1950s diorama and the new 1/100 scale Model of the Model to the attention of a wider audience.
“What a superb platinum season this year has been, ably supported by the Model Town’s brilliant volunteer force,” Greg said.
“For me it’s time to move forward to assist other organisations with new full-size heritage opportunities.”
