Annual Update

Due to our current circumstances, we are not holding our Annual AGM or BBQ.  We would like to take this opportunity to update our members on what has been happening over the last year and details of our new feature in the Jubilee Garden.

Starting with our new feature, you will see a picture on Flickr of our Ice Cream Stall that has specifically been designed so that the preschool children and the young children of the village can use their imagination in their play.  Our thanks go to the Manufacturer of this feature, Mr Peter Winney.

Since our last AGM we have achieved lots of good work on our various community garden areas.  In the Jubilee Garden we have produced a new sign, held a very successful BBQ, hosted a litter picking day for the village and very recently we have completed a major cutback of many of the shrubs that have become rather overgrown.

At North Hall, we have again cleared another part of the overgrown Hazel coppice and laid another 15 metres of traditional hedging as well as producing over 40 bundles of bean poles and pea sticks for our members.  This Autumn we hope to complete the hedging as well as our last area of regeneration of the woodland.

We had plans to repaint the Telephone Box by the village shop, inside and out, however, our current situation is making this rather difficult.  Hopefully we might get this completed before the end of the Summer.

Finally, our appeal for an Auditor has been successful and one of our members has stepped up and offered to complete this task for us on an annual basis.

Thank you for all your support during the year, maybe next year we will be getting back to normal when we can hold our BBQ and hopefully increase our membership in the village.
