...Primary School to understand first
hand their thoughts and ideas for future
Greening activities and how the pupils
can become more involved in our
Community. Last week we attended the
Cleaner on the Green event with
Lymington Transition with a plant and
vegetable swap which was successful.
We are planning on holding a Repair
Cafe event in the early Autumn following
feedback and success of other Repair
Cafe’s in the New Forest area.
The Parish Council would
like to take credit for this,
but alas cannot do so, as
the work was completed
by Hampshire County
Council’s Access Team.
Path work under the
same programme was
also undertaken on a path
off of Lymore Valley.
All Work and All Play
Just a Reminder!
The Parish Office sells good quality,
biodegradable dog bags for the princely
sum of £1 for a pack of 50.
It is a shame to
continually have to
remind those that own
dogs that they should
pick up their dogs mess.
This is something that
blights the Village and is
dangerous, especially to
young children.
Of course the majority of owners are
responsible, but it only takes a few to
give everyone a bad reputation.
Dogs are certainly not allowed on Barnes
Lane Recreation Ground and the
Community Meadow, please walk
around and not through.
