Contact ,Graeme Akhurst about traffic/roads,Ron Little about the allotments and community orchard. Hugh Densham has responsibility on foothpaths and any problems with Highway drainage. Graham Smith has a special interest in all matters planning.If you cannot contact one particular councillor any councillor will look into your problem.

A parish councillor does not just attend a once a month meeting. As you can see from the above interests of each of the above everyone has a special interest.With the playing field we all take a turn at going up once a week to inspect the safety and general condition of the field. The parish council pays on your behalf to have the grass cut regularly but those on the parish council themselves paint the Teen shelter,have installed the goal posts,have made good holes dug illegally into the BMX track. We all do a litter pick on the field and monitor it for dog mess as we have had complaints in the past about children having shoes/clothes messed up.We have a public liability insurance on the field but we have to be compliant with the policy with the regular inspections. ROSPA inspect the equipment annually and we act on their recomendations. New swing seats and chain have been installed and a new gaiter put on the rocker .
