These are detailed below: Page 3 Finance and Standing Committee The primary function is to deal with parish finances i.e. to monitor income and expenditure to nurture Christian stewardship in the parish to prepare the annual budget It also fulfils the role of the Standing Committee by transacting the business of the PCC between its meetings, subject to any directions given by the PCC. The committee is formed of the Rector, Churchwardens, Treasurer, PCC Secretary and the Buildings Committee Chair. Ministry Team The task of the Ministry Team is to: take an overall view of the worship offered in the parish, looking at the balance of services held throughout the year; review the worship, highlighting strengths and suggesting improvements; serve in an advisory capacity to the PCC in terms of liturgical developments and service patterns. in addition, with the Churchwardens and Parish Administrator, we also discuss any pastoral news and business related to other Parish matters. Group Council (previously known as the ‘Cluster Group’) Alongside the Parishes of Ash, Ridley and Longfield we have formed the ‘Rural North West Kent Group’ ministry, to discover continued ways of working and worshipping together. The work of our Group is reported back to the PCC and each Parish has two representatives plus clergy. Andrew Gray and Bob Kneller are the Fawkham and Hartley representatives. John Harding is the Group Chair. Prayer groups Clergy and others lead the Daily Office weekday mornings (not Friday) to pray for the needs of the world, church, local community and those in need. During 2016 we have continued to develop Prayer breakfast meetings which have been well supported and also given different people opportunities to lead and host. Mothers Prayers was set up during 2014 to develop a prayer group to specifically pray for children and families. There is also a Deanery Prayer Group and monthly prayer guide at the back of our Churches. During 2016 a new Prayer for Healing Team was set up, so that people could ask for prayers for healing either during or after a Sunday service. Revd Mell also trained new people to help lead our prayers of intercessions during services. Sunday Club Team The team runs the Sunday Club that is held during the 10.30am service at the Church Centre throughout term times. Youth Group This group is for young people of secondary school age, and meets across the RNWK Group. They meet once a month on a Sunday evening during term time from 7.00pm – 8.30pm. Page 4 Summer Holiday Club Team This team organises and leads the annual Summer Holiday Club for children of Primary School age which is held at the end of August. Messy Church Messy Church meets on Saturdays once a month between 4‐6 pm for a time of worship, arts and crafts and sharing a meal together. This is a time which everyone is welcome to share in, be it as leader or coming along to worship. Visiting Team The organisation and delivery of pastoral care is shared by the Rector, Curate and the Visiting Team. Pastoral care focuses on: immediate pastoral need such as illness, hospitalisation, and relationship difficulties; on‐going care of the housebound, the isolated and the elderly; care for the next‐of‐kin after funerals. Members of the Visiting Team also conduct services in the residential homes (Old Downs and Fairby Grange) once a month, and at the Wellfield Sheltered Housing Community Centre on an occasional basis. Bereavement Team The Bereavement Team is aimed at having a larger group of people who can help the Visiting Team support those in our Parish who are bereaved and in need of help. The group is led by the Curate and a Bereavement team co‐ordinator. Marriage Preparation Team This team organises the annual marriage preparation morning for all those couples getting married in the parish during the course of the year. Assemblies Team This small team leads assemblies in the schools of the parish and also advertises the major events happening for young people at the Church (eg. Holiday Club, Messy Church). Social Committee The role of the social committee is to initiate and encourage fellowship in the parish by arranging various social events and organising refreshments at Cafe Church. Women’s Fellowship This meets on the third Tuesday of every month, except over the summer. It has a varied programme of speakers and activities. Men’s Group This meets two or three times a year, to get to know each other socially and provide support to each other. Pop‐in Parlour This meets every Thursday morning at the Church Centre from 10 am to 12 noon Page 5 when tea, coffee and cakes are available. This provides a much‐needed focus of friendship for many people in the parish. Mission Links This works to develop links with the charities supported by the parish and to make recommendations for the parish’s away‐giving. It seeks to maintain a worldwide perspective in the parish of the work of the Church. In the last year, this group has continued its strong links with Fawkham School and the Banni School in the Gambia, with funds being raised for a new classroom. We have also supported the work of the Bible Society, Tearfund and the Diocesan Hope and Poverty Appeal, as well as other Charities at Christmas and Easter. Local Churches Together The Rector and two parish representatives sit on this ecumenical committee which works to plan and promote ecumenical events together with the Roman Catholic Parish of St. Francis de Sales, the United Reformed Church of Hartley (which sadly closed in 2016) and the Anglican Parishes of Ash cum Ridley and Longfield. Main events include the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in January and the Women’s World Day of Prayer in March. At the end of Holy week is the Good Friday Project for children and the Walk of Witness for adults. The One World Week frugal lunch is held in October. Buildings Committee The function of this committee is to manage, on behalf of the PCC, the two historic churches of All Saints’, Hartley, and St. Mary’s, Fawkham, and the modern Fawkham and Hartley Church Centre. Fete Committee Members of this committee have the responsibility of organising the annual parish fete which is held at Church Meadow, Fawkham in May. Fundraising Committee This new committee plans a yearly timetable of once a month fundraising activities. So far this is a proving a great success. The Friends of All Saints’, Hartley and The Friends of Fawkham Church The Friends of All Saints’ Church, Hartley and the Friends of Fawkham Church are established with their own charitable status.

  • Maxine Fothergill – District Councillors Annual Report Fawkham and West Kingsdown Ward
    Maxine Fothergill – District Councillors annual report Fawkham and West Kingsdown Ward Firstly I would again, sincerely like to thank all residents for providing your trust and faith in me, by electing me as your ward councillor from May 2019 to May 2023. It has been a very interesting year to date, after originally coming from the Bexley area, where I had formally been a Borough Councillor for 8 years. In a London Borough, decisions are made by the main administration and also directly funded. However, here in Sevenoaks District Council we are a 3 tier system with KCC as the overarching Council, having the majority of funding for all major items, then SDC who deal with all local issues including weekly refuse collections and then of course, the Parish Councils, which is where all the local work really does take place and rightly so, as the Parish Council has the full and in-depth understanding of the needs of our local residents. As many of you will know, I got very involved when the proposed development plans were announced and after coming to live in the beautiful village of Fawkham; surrounded by acres of green belt and ancient woodland, with only 221 homes and less than 500 residents, the last thing I wanted to see was the desecration of our quaint little hamlet and hence why I stood to represent you at last year’s local elections. This past year has been very interesting. I personally had attended practically every West Kingsdown Parish Council meeting in my District Councillor capacity, to ensure I am fully aware of all local issues and being a member of Fawkham Parish Council, I have naturally attended the majority of meetings, (with the exception of one meeting when I was on a sponsored charity sleep out on behalf of Centrepoint, where I am delighted to advise, I raised over £900 for homeless young people, in order to help them get a roof over their heads and rebuild their lives).

The investigations revealed signs of a human presence as early as the Late Mesolithic or Early Neolithic period, with further occupation in later prehistory, though few features pre-dating the Roman occupation were identified. Although there was a little evidence for activity in the early Roman period the most extensive and significant phase of occupation of the site was during the 3rd and 4th centuries when a small settlement was established, apparently over part of an earlier field system. The core of the settlement however, lay beyond the area of investigation and therefore it was difficult to ascertain its likely extent and function, though it was probably part of a complex network of small agricultural settlements that occupied much of the Darent Valley and areas beyond during the Roman period.

  • A Community Vision for Hartley
    A Community Vision for Hartley March 2018 2 A Vision - Hartley Urban Extension A Community Vision for Hartley Prepared by DHA Planning on behalf of Billings Group, the Leigh Academies Trust and Chapel Wood Enterprises. March 2018 A Community Vision for Hartley This submission is made to Sevenoaks District Council in support of a proposed expansion to Hartley and Longfield, in order to assist with the Council’s projected housing need for the emerging Local Plan. The Council have identified a need for at least 12,400 houses in Sevenoaks District between 2013 - 2033 (an annualised target of 620 dwellings per annum). There is therefore a need for the Council to assess the most sustainable forms of development to meet this housing need – through the process of a robust Sustainability Appraisal process – and this document seeks to provide the Council will the necessary information to fully appraise the site, and also to compare to other, perhaps less sustainable options put forward. We believe this site is located within a sustainable location, adjoining the existing settlements, outside of the AONB which has a good level of services and infrastructure. What is also of note is that this proposal would allow for the enhancement of this existing provision and also a number of additional community benefits, which would not otherwise come forward as a result of the other or disbursed development. These benefits include: • The provision of a new 3FE Primary and SEN Academy (to replace and enhance the existing Hartley primary school offer) in agreement
