  • Village Newsletter
    Lydeard St Lawrence & Tolland Village Newsletter April 2020 Editorial Well, what an odd month this has been. How quickly our lives have changed in the past couple of weeks and how good to see our villages coming together to help our communities. We have all been inundated with information recently and I know I have been sending out copious emails adding to those you may also be getting from elsewhere. But information is good and I believe it is better to see something twice than not at all. On a positive note, my call for an old second-hand bike, (remember that email from two weeks ago?), had a very positive response and an old bike has been passed on to a new, delighted owner. Below I have included a number of bits of information to do with our current situation together with a couple of non Corona things. Stay safe everyone, keep smiling and most of all if you need anything at all, ask. Liz Message from Revd. Maureen I am here for everyone in our village - whether they go to church or not - and am holding everyone in my prayers and for a good outcome. However, because of my age I am obliged to stay in the house and am very sad that there is no worship happening in our church building. However the church is not about buildings but about people, and in our concern for one another we are showing our love and care and, in a way, being church. We don't need to kneel down and put our hands together and close our eyes to pray.

Clive moved to Bishops Lydeard over 20 years ago. His 2 sons were educated locally and he was a governor of the primary school for 10 years (6 of those as Chair). He has been a parish councillor in Bishops Lydeard for the last 8 years and is currently Vice-Chair. A keen supporter of Bishops Lydeard Football Club, in his 50s he played regularly for Bagborough Cricket Club but eventually had to retire as even the Sunday Friendly XI did not need a non-batting, non-bowing, non-fielding “all rounder”! (“One of the worst players ever to represent Bagborough CC” – Martin King). He’s also a Clive with Molly Scott-Cato member of the local amateur dramatic group and is rumoured to have played the (MEP for South West) Dame in the pantomime on several occasions. Clive’s local campaigning has involved work in the area for Quantock Eco urging people to take advantage of insulation deals and trying to set up a local “produce fair” with local farmers and gardeners.
