School Children - Armistice Poppy Project
To mark the centenary of the 1918 Armistice, the Royal British Legion in Suffolk, are inviting local school children to lay poppies on the 1,332 Great War graves that lie in 248 cemeteries and churchyards across the county.
The event will take place on Thursday 8th November 2018, concluding with a nationwide Act of Remembrance at 11:00 AM.
The Lord Lieutenant has written to Suffolk schools informing them of this event and so the Suffolk Royal British Legion are currently looking for volunteers and supporters to help with this project.
Community Speed Watch
The Parish Council have been asked to consider re-starting the Speed Watch Scheme in the village. The Police team that run the scheme have advised that we require a minimum of 6 volunteers before the Police will consider approving the scheme in the village. We therefore need some volunteers.
If you are interested in volunteering, or would like some further information, could you please contact the Parish Clerk - Lucinda Rogers:
