Matters Arising:

• Defibrillator – The training session to be held in the Farmers Arms will be held within the next four weeks. The session will be open to residents from the other villages if they wish to attend.

• Community Website – It was agreed that urgent progress to revise the community website is required.. It is hoped that a “visualisation” of the new proposed format will be available shortly.

• Noticeboard Frontage – Cllr. Love reported that the noticeboard has been cleaned and looks much better. The local resident who carried out the cleaning has undertaken to continue to do so periodically.

• Give Dog Fouling The Red Card: Cllr. Love informed the meeting that the fourth bin has now been installed on Ton Road. The bin and installation cost just £100. It appears that the bins have been a success and are well used and appreciated by local residents. The Police have visited and spoken to dog owners and they have undertaken to continue to do so.
