Severn Trent have inspected and approved the water pipe, and we hope to have a connection team out within the next few weeks. Thanks again to everyone who helped on the ‘dig’.

I am collecting on behalf of my mothers local authority care home. They are proposing to decorate and equip a themed 1950’s parlour, shop, hairdressing salon and sitting room. This has been proven to aid residents suffering from dementia and memory loss.
Any 1950’s items that anyone can donate would be very much appreciated.

Please contact Robert 310406

A reminder that all volunteers are welcome to this years spring clean. Meet Village Hall at 10.00am and afterwards Wesleyan House for hot soup and home made bread!

We are informed that Paul’s vegetable trailer has been stolen and that he may not be able to visit Alstonefield on a Thursday afternoon for a couple of weeks or so, while things are being sorted out.  He fully intends to start up again as soon as possible

We now have everything in place to start putting water into St. Peter’s. The digger will start on Monday 14^th March to dig a trench from the church gate to the West door. We will dig by hand from outside the West door across the Tower floor to the place where the water is required in church. We also have to dig an access for the water to the boiler house. In addition we have to construct a waste water pipe system to a soak away outside the West door.

Any offers of manual help would be appreciated. We plan to have a working party on Saturday morning 12th March to start the work-9.00am-12.00 noon. We will also be working each morning whilst the digger is at work, 14^th, 15^th, & 16^th March. After this we will assess what if any further work needs to be done.

If you are able to help please come along to give a hand bringing your own tools if possible-pick & shovel.

Thanks for your support

Following the fantastic turn-out on a rainy spring day last year, we have scheduled this year’s Spring Clean for the morning of Saturday 26th March 2011. All volunteers are welcome and should convene outside the Village Hall at 10.00am. Bin bags will be provided. Hot soup and bread at Wesleyan House for helpers afterwards!
