Westfield Community Association Newsletter<br />
<strong>No</strong>. <strong>166</strong> <strong>No</strong>vember <strong>2018</strong><br />
As this newsletter goes to print Westfield is covered in poppies made by people<br />
of all ages; what a splendid display, which also shows the huge amount of talent<br />
around, for Remembrance tide and the Armistice Centenary. This was a<br />
Westfield Parish Council project and a souvenir leaflet accompanies this<br />
newsletter for those who didn’t keep their own record or were too far away to<br />
visit. With thanks to Kate Darbyshire, 1066 Photography, for all her hard work<br />
with the event and supplying the photos, I have produced the four page leaflet<br />
as a keepsake; extra copies are available. Thanks also to Rez of Digital Image<br />
Solutions for his contribution in printing the leaflet, and indeed all the<br />
newsletters.<br />
The door-to-door collection for the annual Poppy Appeal has taken place but if<br />
anyone wishes to donate further to the work of the Royal British Legion, there is<br />
a permanent collection box in The New Inn or contact me.<br />
Within a few days Christmas lights will be putting Westfield on the map once<br />
again. It is unfortunate that due to health and safety, crowd control and traffic<br />
etc. the switch on cannot be an event for the public. A great deal of hard work<br />
goes into preparing the displays which give such pleasure to locals and visitors<br />
throughout December; donations are for St Michael’s Hospice.<br />
Within these pages I hope you will find items of interest and dates to write on<br />
your calendars and diaries. Once again, I thank the volunteers - about 50 of<br />
you - who put this newsletter through your letter box four times a year, in all<br />
weathers. Volunteers play such a large part in our lives but if everyone does a<br />
little bit, it makes it enjoyable for all; perhaps a<br />
New Year resolution for 2019.<br />
If you’ve finished with<br />
this newsletter, please<br />
recycle by taking it to<br />
any of Westfield’s shops<br />
for others to read<br />
Best wishes, Merry Christmas and<br />
a happy, peaceful New Year<br />
