NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS<br />
In the next couple of months there will be a survey dropping through<br />
your letter box asking for your opinion on our Parish Community Hall.<br />
The Hall was built in 1972 and has gone from being a hub of activity<br />
to, more recently, an under-used resource. Due to its current condition<br />
and high maintenance cost, there have been discussions about<br />
refurbishing, altering or rebuilding the Hall. The Community Hall<br />
Management Committee, as part of their considerations towards<br />
planning for the Hall’s future, wish to know your views. Please take time<br />
to complete and return the survey when it pops through your door.<br />
