P&TG Scout Group<br />
The Scouts had a group picnic and games<br />
evening on the back common on 13th July. We<br />
were having a great time until the occurance of<br />
a sudden downpour. With all those sunny days<br />
we had this year we picked a dud day! It only<br />
slightly dampened an otherwise fun time.<br />
Our Autumn Jumble Sale is this month on<br />
Saturday 6th <strong>Oct</strong>ober at the <strong>Village</strong> Hall starting<br />
at 1.00pm. Please come along and bag a<br />
bargain. We are always looking for help so why<br />
not spare a couple of hours? On Friday night<br />
we will be getting ready from 6.30pm to<br />
8.30pm and on Saturday morning from 9.00am.<br />
We hope to see a big crowd turn up.<br />

Tylers Green/Hazlemere needs more volunteers<br />
to help keep our Guiding Units running.<br />
What volunteering is all about? It's about<br />
empowering girls and giving them new<br />
experiences. It's being a role model and helping<br />
girls to realise their full potential. It's sharing<br />
and developing your skills.<br />
I don’t have any experience of<br />
volunteering, or the right skills to volunteer.<br />
No experience is needed – just come along and<br />
see what we’re all about! You’ll soon get a<br />
feeling for the group and with the new<br />
programme it couldn’t be a better time to start..<br />
You could even try some different groups and<br />
see where you’d prefer to be. Don’t think you<br />
don’t have the right skills – any skills are useful,<br />
and you’ll quickly gain new ones! We are a<br />
caring, friendly lot, so what are you waiting<br />
for?! The Leadership qualification is always<br />
recognised on your CV but there are other roles<br />
which do not involve any qualification.<br />
Do something for you and your<br />
community. Meet new friends living near you<br />
or take a break from your everyday routine.<br />
Share a skill or specialism. Make a difference to<br />
the lives of girls in your community. Spend time<br />
laughing, playing and being inspired by<br />
incredible girls and young women<br />
Whether you've been involved in guiding<br />
before or you are completely new to us, you'll<br />
feel proud to watch girls grow through guiding.<br />

<strong>Village</strong> Care<br />
<strong>Village</strong> Care has funded a defibrillator for Tylers<br />
Green Middle School and public use, with funds<br />
from the <strong>Village</strong> Care Open Gardens Day.<br />
Vanessa Pinkney, Headteacher of the School,<br />
thanked David Williams, <strong>Village</strong> Care Treasurer,<br />
for the generous gift, and said the defibrillator<br />
would be a support for the School, its many<br />
visitors and the public in the area who will have<br />
constant access.<br />
We could do with another telephonist for<br />
<strong>Village</strong> Care: please ring Gillian Watkins if you<br />
would like to talk about doing telephony once a<br />
month (815693). If you would like to drive for<br />
<strong>Village</strong> Care, either once a month or as an extra<br />
driver, please contact Rob Haddon on 817893.<br />
And we are still looking for a replacement<br />
Treasurer, as David is retiring: please ring me.<br />
You will be part of a great team.<br />
The <strong>Village</strong> Care AGM will take place on<br />
32 www.pennandtylersgreen.org.uk
