Darren (Fulmer Day Committee) Welcome to the 63rd issue of the Fulmer Newsletter Our village has a new Parish Council Chairman, David Brackin, and we welcome him and wish him well in his task of keeping our village in great shape. This can only come with the help and support of many loyal and helpful volunteers who quietly go about their work – for example - Fulmer Conservation Volunteers who keep the vegetation in the village (including footpaths) under control; the Churchyard garden group with the same motto; and many other villagers who keep their patch free of litter. However, we need more people to help and below you will see the ‘Situations Vacant’ and please consider helping out. It doesn’t have to be every week and sharing these chores can be beneficial on so many levels.

Pamela Whittle who died on 10 April, a Celebration of her Life took place on 11 May. CHRISTINE MUDD 10 July 1921 – 16 January 2018 My dear Mum, Christine Mudd died peacefully on the 16th January at Burnham Lodge Nursing home. She was born on the 10th July 1921 in Guildford. She spent her childhood in Surrey and Portsmouth before returning to Guildford in her teens. Her first job was as a Junior Librarian in Boots in Guildford. It was there she met Dennis, who slipped a note into the library book he was returning, to ask her to go to the Odeon playhouse with him! Courtship followed, but it was wartime with Dennis training and flying with the Fleet Air Arm and Mum working as a Nursery Nurse in the first wartime Nursery in Guildford. However, in 1943 they married. Time moved on to happy family life when my brother John, and then I were born. We moved to Horsham in Sussex where we grew up. Mum was busy looking after us and with school activities. During that time, her elderly Father came to live with us. It was not always easy for Mum to keep the peace! While in Horsham, Mum helped start up their branch of The Citizens Advice Bureau and volunteered at the local hospital. In 1969 we moved to Gerrards Cross after a promotion at work for Dad. It was with coming to Fulmer Church we found welcome and friendship. The church offered great support and care for us during family illness. Dad retired in 1980, and Mum and Dad decided to move to Hay Lane in Fulmer. They were both welcomed into the village and community and became active members of Fulmer Church and they were at their happiest. Sadly Dad only enjoyed four years as part of Fulmer life, as his illness of pancreatic cancer progressed. Mum nursed him at home with love and devotion. After Dad died in 1984, Mum was so glad to have the support of her friends in Fulmer and the Church. As she said she always had someone to talk to. Mum wanted to try and give back to the Fulmer community a little of what she had received. Helping in the Church and the community became her priority! She served on the Parish County Council with Edward Guinness, and her work was renowned for village footpath inspections with her close friend Sylvia Hornibrooke. Indeed, on one occasion Mum was so intent that she fell off the bridge at the Watersplash causing a visit to the hospital. Mum worked hard for Fulmer, especially for the ‘Best Kept Village’ award. Mum was an active member of committees for the village hall and was also involved with the W.I and Women’s Fellowship. She was always ready to help or listen. Cups of tea and homemade cake were always offered, and she always met you with a lovely smile. As well as village life Mum also worked with Age Concern visiting Wexham Park Hospital with the library trolley. If the bus didn’t arrive to take her, she would walk! After a theft from Fulmer Church, Mum was the trusted member to unlock and lock the Church, morning and night whatever the weather! Remembrance Sunday saw Mum, usually with one of the grandchildren in tow, selling poppies around the village. On Fulmer Day Mum was usually helping in the kitchen with a large teapot. She so enjoyed village events. In the 90’s, Mum decided to move from Fulmer into a warden-run flat in Gerrards Cross. She missed being part of Fulmer but kept in touch with her many friends.

From Dominic Grieve QC MP As I write this piece, the rain is falling outside and the long-range weather forecast predicts a wet winter. I hope it may be mistaken as my trips round the constituency show me that ground and river water levels remain high after last winter’s offering. Fortunately much of Fulmer being an old settlement was wisely placed in dry locations, something which modern development often ignores. Firm foundations both terrestrial and moral are a good place to withstand the vicissitudes which daily life throws up for us. I am conscious that the year has been not without its challenges. The prospect of the start of development at Pinewood is a source of anxiety and we must strive to ensure that the process and the end result preserve Fulmer’s charms.
