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 />

Glazebrook Residents’ Action Group invite Parish residents of all<br />

ages to join them at their annual ‘Carols on the Green’- see p.16<br />

this event and The Black Swan for donating a marquee - ensuring<br />

the carols can go ahead whatever the weather!<br />
