I'm Emma Vardy with the news in the South.

The organisers of a soup kitchen for homeless people

in central Bournemouth have vowed to continue despite being warndd to

The Street Light project has been told

its set`up is bad for tourism and is attracting anti`social behaviour.

Cooking for 50 has become their Saturday night routind.

Anastasia and Rachel pay for ingredients themselves,

They hand out hot meals frol a corner

of Bournemouth's Lower Garddns, just off the town square.

We can feed up to 100, that's including outreach.

That is also walking around the streets.

They come along, they get a hot meal.

They also offer clothing, a friendly ear

and help dealing with the authorities.

They found me a private landlord and got me in there.

These days I can cook for mxself and everything else.

I generally try and come and help out as best I can, but without them,

I was on the street and I w`s in a real mess.

But it's the central location that has upset the council.

The Lower Gardens are probably one of the best tourist spots

Millions of visitors come there every year and we don't feel that

those gardens are the best place to have a soup kitchen attr`cting

Anastasia and Rachel say claims their project

leads to anti`social behaviour are wrong.

I mean, they just sit quietly and eat their food.

They don't want to bring attention to themselves.

I don't want them to feel like they have to be hidden away.

I think they should be treated as normal human beings.

88 meals were served here l`st night and the volunteers sax

Police are appealing for witnesses after a man

in his twenties was stabbed in Gosport early this morning.

Parts of Grange Road were sdaled off as detectives tried to establish

The man sustained injuries to his face, arms and body.

A woman has been bailed following the suspicious de`th of

Ethel Baldwin, also known as Joyce, died at Abbey House Care Hole,

The 36`year`old suspect will be on police bail until Decembdr.

Thousands of sailors around the world are hoping to have broken a

record by competing in a gi`nt race in memory of the Olympian

Andrew "Bart" Simpson who died last year.

People have been taking part across the south but the focus has

been at the National Sailing Academy in Dorset where Bart was based.

His father always wanted his success out on the water to inspire others.

Andrew Simpson may not be hdre any more, but he's still having

a major influence, not least on his young son.

For his Olympic sailing partner it's the first time he's returned

And to the boat where he and his friend spent

so many hours in the years before Bart, as he was known, was killed

Well, it's kind of weirdly familiar but totally different

Different in lots of ways btt mainly just not having Bart alongshde me.

If he's got half of his dad's genes, he's going to be a champion,

The race here in Weymouth is underway.

There are also races in Livhngston, Lee`on`the`Solent,

lots of other places around the South, not to mention

at different clubs in different countries around the world.

In fact, it's hard to think of

a sailing community that isn't taking part.

Loads of children, I think, are starting to find sailing more fun.

I think it's because the Olxmpics took place

It's hoped this event will lean that legacy continues

and the next generation is `lready taking to the water.

That's Gary Hunt from South`mpton doing a 27 metre dive.

He's just become the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series champion.

From that height, divers hit the water at more than 50 miles an hour.

This is Gary's fourth World Series title.

I stood on the end of that platform and I just tried to

imagine it was going to be the last time I ever did th`t dive,

I've managed to secure the championship already.

Here's the weather now with Holly Green.

The sunny skies of today giving way to starry skies tonight

and that means it's going to get quite chilly.

Lengthy clear spells, a touch of mist and fog perhaps

These are the values in towns and cities.

It will be cold in the countryside, five or six degrees perhaps,

so a widespread grass frost quite possible.

Into tomorrow, a cold start, any mist clearing

and then it should be a day much like today.

Lots of sunshine, just a touch of fairweather cloud,

and temperatures once again up to about 18 degrees or so.

Tuesday and Wednesday look similar, dry and bright with some sunshine,

I'll be back with the late news at 00.2

Good evening. After a fine day, a fine night in prospect. And with

clearing skies, a chilly night at that. The satellite tells the story,

how cloud has built during the course of the day. Particularly on

into the afternoon. But we run the sequence and you can see it thinning

and breaking and it is those clearing skies that will through the

evening, but particularly in the small hours allow our temperatures
