 HELP WANTED

Mike Heybrook is leading a litter pick this Saturday, to help clear our village and verges.

Meet outside the Bell at 9.45.

Volunteers needed.  Bring gloves and UV jacket, if you have one.

You never know, you may be rewarded with a hot drink and slice of cake after a couple of hours!

Who can find the strangest object?

Thanks in advance

We are sorry to hear of the death this morning of Keith Wright. Another significant life lost in the story of the village.

God bless you.

Prayers for Keith Turnbull and his family this evening

Out of respect for Keith Turnbull, there will be no bell ringing from St Nicholas' tower this evening. 
Instead, at 7pm in church, candles will be lit and prayers will be said for Keith, his family, his first responders, and his community.

All are welcome to come and join in together. Alternatively, please remember the church is open every day if you would like time to reflect and light candles on your own.

Rev Richard

Chearsley Parish Council Initiatives Update

 

Chearsley Initiatives Update

Hello Chearsley

We would like to let you know about a number of initiatives that are of merit and currently forming part of the wider PC thinking and vision for the village of Chearsley over the coming years.

1.          Horse Chestnut Intersection improvements.
This is live and has been for some time, although currently developing slowly as more Bucks Council commitment is awaited.

2.          Increased car parking provisions.
This is now live and progressing towards a site meeting, costs, a village survey and meeting.

3.          Introduction of a Village Maintenance Plan to protect and enhance lanes, verges, footpaths, grass cutting and walkways.
This is agreed in principle as a strong possibility with a proposal being written for discussion and further consultation within the PC.

4.          Introduction of roadside Oak Bollards to protect from verges damage in key locations.
Work has already involved completion of a village mapping survey and details of a trial location will be agreed and announced shortly.

5.          Chearsley Village Historical Society.
Very much up and running with many events and presentations already confirmed or being planned.

Hopefully this update provides further transparency and inclusivity as to the wider thinking of the PC in securing and protecting our village assets. 
We also urge all parishioners to keep abreast of PC and other activities by regularly checking the new village website http://www.chearsleypc.org.uk.  As well as updates on the initiatives above and other PC work of interest, this now provides direct access to other village websites for a one-stop village-wide view of what’s on.
Remember also that everyone is welcome to attend PC meetings, to ask questions or comment on what you hear.  Meeting dates are here.

Thank You and Best Wishes
Chearsley Parish Councillors & Officers
