Please be advised that we are receiving information regarding a company selling recliner seats and chairs within the Lincolnshire region. We are concerned that a member of the company’s staff is using aggressive selling techniques and became very rude when asked to leave.

We advise you to take precautions when dealing with companies that carryout home visits and if you have recently made an appointment for this type of equipment, maybe arrange for a relative or neighbour to be present when an appointment is carried out. Should you be unhappy with the way a company has treated you, please contact Trading Standards on 01522 782341 or Email: [email protected]

Remember: If you ask a sales representative to leave your home and they refuse to go – this is an offence and you should ring Lincolnshire Police on tel: 101 for assistance.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION - If you are classed as elderly or vulnerable and you require any equipment to assist you in your home, modifications to be made or require small repairs carrying out, you can contact the Lincolnshire Home Improvement Agency to see if you qualify for assistance on 0845 450 9115 (local call) or Website: www.lincshia.org/home.html

Alternatively, you can check their ‘approved trader’ list to see local traders who have been approved for work or equipment sales. www.lincshia.org/find-a-trusted-teader.html

Report of October’s Parish Council meeting Archer Survey, Barlings Lane -The more detailed results of the Archer survey had been received from Highways which did indicate that a number of vehicles were speeding along the Lane. However a resident of Barlings Lane produced a letter from the Road Safety Partnership stating that, following a second traffic survey on the Lane, as there have been no reported injury collisions in that area over the last three years it could not justify a local safety scheme.

Following discussion it was agreed to ask the County Council Highways Department to provide additional signage indicating 30mph along the Lane.

Police Report - PCSO Jackie Parker reported as follows:-

 A new Beat Manager had been appointed to be based at the Nettleham Police Office  There had been horses/ponies running loose on the A158, having escaped from their field.  There had been the theft of a cycle from Barlings Lane – PCSO Parker stated that there were many cycle thefts throughout the County at present and warned residents to keep them locked securely.

Flooding Issues – The Flood Wardens reported that during the recent heavy rainfall, resulting in flooding in other parts of the country, that Langworth had been extremely lucky. It is expected that residents of Langworth would be prepared in the event of a repeat of the severe weather.

The Flood Wardens were still surveying the surface water drains in the village and that they would shortly be checking the rivers for any likely blockages.

Poppy Wreath – Members approved the donation of £20.00 for the British Legion Poppy wreath.

Date of next Parish Council meeting – Tuesday 6th November 2012, 7.30pm, Memorial Hall.
