will be giving us a talk on ‘Growing Soft Fruits’ (including new varieties). The talk will commence at 7.30 but due to government restrictions, will only be open to club members.
Obviously, we will be adhering to the restrictions and distancing as currently laid down and members will receive information in September prior to the meeting, to advise you how this will be implemented.

Following the lockdown due to the Corona Virus Pandemic, the Village Hall is now able to reopen.
Because the virus is still amongst us, there are several changes which have had to be made, to try to keep us all safe.
We have installed a sanitiser gel dispenser at the entrance to the hall, as well as providing soap, paper towels and bins for each of the sinks in the hall designated for hand washing. There are also signs reminding everyone how to properly wash their hands.
As of 8th August, it is a requirement for everyone entering the hall to wear a face covering. The advice is specifically: –
On entering a village hall, you will be required to wear a face covering, unless you are covered under a “reasonable excuse”. This could be for a gym class, if you need to eat or drink something, or if you have a health or disability reason to not wear one.
When a booking is made, the person must also provide a risk assessment, to show that their groups specific risks have been considered, and steps taken to minimise the risks as far as is reasonably practical.
The hirer must also provide, if asked to do so, contact details for everyone who has entered the hall in the event a case of the virus is identified.
The kitchen facilities will not be available for use at the present time, although there is soap and paper towels provided by the handwashing sink.

Following a thorough risk assessment and installation of sanitiser and other cleanliness features the Pavilion will reopen from 1st September for regular users only, where those activities are permitted and can be adapted to operate safely.
We regret that at this time we are not able to take any casual bookings.
We are still in uncertain times and have put special booking conditions in place. In particular, all users will need to take some responsibility for cleaning before, during and after use to minimise the risk of infection.
Please see the main webpage for booking details.
We will post new information on the web site as it becomes available.

You may have noticed that our village benches have all been given a new sparkle! thanks to a grant gained by the Parish Council and Carolyn Shaikh’s commitment. Thanks too, to Jason of J Capone Property Maintenance for his hard work in restoring and painting them.
The wooden benches will hopefully get a face-lift in due course too.
