Children's Play Area
Despite several attempts to stop people using the roundabout in the playing field, people are still letting their children on this equipment. The roundabout is obviously broken and could be extremely DANGEROUS. We are awaiting replacement of this equipment and a general overhaul of the area. Please do not use the roundabout until it is repaired!!!

Youth Club
The new Youth Club in the village continues to go from strength to strength. With 30+ youngsters attending on Friday evenings in the Reading Room, things are starting to get a bit crowded! The club resumes again on Friday 20th September in the Reading Room, but will soon move to it's new home in the village school. If anybody has a spare couple of hours on Friday evenings (7.00 - 9.30pm) and would like to help with the supervision of this club, please contact Fel Moore or Elise Ripley.

Any Other Business?
As by now you have probably seen….White lines have been painted on the road along High Street and outside of Bridge Cottage Stores in an attempt to make it safer for pedestrians. I know that the cars speeding through our village can be extremely dangerous, but we hope that these lines help to keep them away from the walking public!
