Jubilee Field Management Committee
Thanks to everyone who came to the Ceilidh - a fantastic turnout - and almost £800 was raised.
The playground refurbishment is now almost complete - much safer, and more fun for children of all ages. Many thanks to Linda Frankland for all her hard work in securing the funding and organising the work.
We are looking for a cleaner - an hour a week - to keep the hall and pavilion under control. Please contact Steve (842952) if you are interested. |

New Webmaster...
Having developed and updated the website for some eight years, the time has come for some new fresh ideas and input... please let me (Sandy 521295) know if you'd be interested in taking over the website. It is a useful village resource and doesn't take too much time.
