We hope to be able to see them out around the village before too many more weeks pass.) COVID 19 HELPLINE The Covid 19 helpline is working! Thank you to the volunteers that came forward. We now have 30 registered of which most have contributed in some way. Easter bunnies were out all over out village on Easter Sunday,,, Thank you. You made a difference. Once again for those needing to shield at home, there is help. It's only a phone call away. Thank you to everyone who silently helps their neighbour. Margaret Thompson 07906 509302 NHS The old familiar sounds of the day I miss, really eerie, didn't know it mattered at all. Then to stand on the door step and applaud our NHS workers in a small village like ours was really heartening. It was so great I phoned my daughter, Sally, who nurses in Chelsea and Westminster in London. She sounded very emotional, therefore so was I. What a lovely thing to do. “Mum I can hear a foghorn and whistles, clapping, saucepans and hoorahs!” Yes, Sally, even our small community, individually we care as much as those that live in the smoke. Even more so as we are out on a limb. So cheers to all for doing their bit and more, right across the board. A huge well done and thank you so much..
