PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL
In our last Newsletter I outlined my hopes for a new PPC of 12 parishioners, and asked for volunteers to nominate themselves. It did not go according to my hopes! However, I am grateful to those few who have responded and for the time being, they will form a Parish Advisory Group who will assist me in guiding the Parish.
This continues to meet each month and the areas that it has recently dealt with are: Car Park, Parish Accounts, Surface Water Drainage, Quotes for New heating system - Parish Hall, Request for a new storage shed (pre-school club), Re-Ordering of some aspects of the church, Summer Fair.
