Send Social Club is holding an Open Day on 28 August. If you might like to become a member, this would be a good opportunity to visit the club.
The Parish Council would like to thank everyone who replied to our questionnaire about a potential Good Neighbour Scheme. The first impressions of the responses are that Send Help is very greatly valued in the village but that many people would also like to help their neighbours in times when conditions are difficult. A meeting to share ideas on how to get this scheme to work has been planned for 10 October at 7.30 pm in the upper room of the Lancaster Hall.
