Hollands Way Playground Project

30/10/2020

As part of the Wild About Warnham project, the Parish Council are asking for feedback from residents on some ideas for ‘Greening the Village Green’. The Village Green is owned by the parish and therefore it is vital that any changes to its appearance and function are approved by residents. We are encouraging all residents to take part in the online survey which can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/5PGZKPC. Further information can also be found on the Wild About Warnham pages on the website https://warnham.org.uk/wild-about-warnham/
The survey closes on 27th November.

The Parish Council is coordinating a Corona Virus help group to assist those that need support in the parish. The group will offer assistance to the elderly, vulnerable or individuals who are self isolating by getting groceries, prescriptions and other supplies. It may also involve checking in with people and chatting on the phone to those that are housebound.

If you are able to volunteer for this group please contact the Clerk, Ashley Brooks on [email protected] or Ann Lloyd at [email protected] or 01403 267513 or message via Facebook.

If you know of anyone that would benefit from some help, please let Ashley or Ann know.

We will be distributing leaflets with details of the help group. We will provide the first name and contact number of those who have volunteered, so that those that need help can ring the volunteers directly.

Thank you
