From 30 July you can recycle: • Plastic pots, tubs and trays • Drink and food cartons In addition to plastic bottles and cardboard, you will be able to put yoghurt pots, plastic trays, margarine tubs, ice cream tubs and juice cartons in your blue lidded bin. Please rinse and squash your recycling where possible. What happens to my recycling once it is collected? Materials are sent to a sorting facility where they are separated to maximise their value. If you put the wrong materials in your bin someone has to remove them by hand. The separated materials are processed and made in to new products. Christmas is Coming! Sorry to remind you all of this whilst you are sitting enjoying the wonderful summer weather. However, I need to plan ahead for our Christmas music. There may be some of you out there who like to sing and wonder about joining a choir. You may or may not be able to read music but you can learn a lot quite quickly. If you already are a singer, well and good and you will be very welcome, but we welcome anyone, men or women, who can hold a tune and enjoys learning new Christmas music as well as singing old favourite carols. We will be practising for Christmas from October 8th and if you would like to join us in our practices in Church on Mondays at 7.30pm until 8.30pm you would be very welcome. We will be practising our normal service music as well and you will be welcome to join in and learn a lot from that too. Please let me know by email: [email protected] or telephone: 01793 731629 I look forward to hearing from you, Jenni Moseling Broad Hinton Tennis Tournament 2018 Yes, it is that time of year again! This year’s Tennis Tournament will take place on Sunday, August 26th (on the Bank Holiday weekend), and it will be a slightly different format in that it will probably take place on just the one court, Marlborough Lodge. The Moakses, reasonably enough, feel that they deserve a break after 14 years, but the Tennis Tournament will definitely happen. This is possible because I’ve secured the help of the Famous Fieldsend family, renowned tennis players and well-known for their general ability to get things sorted. We haven’t yet finalised the format, but it is possible that we may need to limit the quantity of players, perhaps to 20. So if you want to play, please get back to me as soon as possible and put your name on the list. As usual, we will sort everyone into mixed pairs (where each pair is of roughly equal ability to every other pair), so it should be a good day all round. There will be the usual bar all day, plus bacon butties for breakfast, tasty lunch and cream teas in the afternoon. Doors open at 10.00am, and play will start prompt at 10.30. The finals happen when they happen, frankly. We’d be very grateful for volunteer helpers, as well, and we shall be looking for assistance on the catering and bar side in particular! So anyone who fancies serving drinks for an hour or so will be most welcome – again, please let me know as soon as possible. Anyone who wants to practice is welcome to do so on the Marlborough Lodge court; usual arrangements, £10 a year for “membership”, £15 for family “membership”, plus £2 a head each time you play. Players in the Tournament will each need to pay £10, and players between 14 and 18 £6 each. If you want to play, or very kindly to help with the day, please get in touch either by email ([email protected]) or ring on 731050.

Jim also confirmed that where footpaths are overgrown it is the responsibility of the landowner to keep the footpaths clear. Dog fouling: Councillors discussed the problem in the Villages of residents allowing their dogs to foul the footpaths and areas of the Villages and not picking it up. The PC agreed to look at our available signage and communication about the issue and continue to encourage dog owners to “bag and bin” it, preferably taking their dog faeces home to dispose of.

The Councillors would like to remind resident dog owners to please pick up their own dog faeces and bin them responsibly. Reports 4.

    PH 'Wessex White Horses'

    Notes from a Preceptor’s Handbook A Preceptor: (OED) 1440 A.D. from Latin praeceptor one who instructs, a teacher, a tutor, a mentor “A horse, a horse and they are all white” Provincial Grand Lodge of Wiltshire Provincial W Bro Michael Lee PAGDC 2017 The White Horses of Wessex Editors note: Whilst not a Masonic topic, I fell Michael Lee’s original work on the mysterious and mystical White Horses of Wiltshire (and the surrounding area) warranted publication, and rightly deserved its place in the Preceptors Handbook. I trust, after reading this short piece, you will wholeheartedly agree. Origins It seems a perfectly fair question to ask just why the Wiltshire Provincial Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter decided to select a white horse rather than say the bustard or cathedral spire or even Stonehenge as the most suitable symbol for the Wiltshire Provincial banner. Most continents, most societies can provide examples of the strange, the mysterious, that have teased and perplexed countless generations. One might include, for example, stone circles, ancient dolmens and burial chambers, ley lines, flying saucers and - today - crop circles. There is however one small area of the world that has been (and continues to be) a natural focal point for all of these examples on an almost extravagant scale. This is the region in the south west of the British Isles known as Wessex. To our list of curiosities we can add yet one more category dating from Neolithic times: those large and mysterious figures dominating our hillsides, carved in the chalk and often stretching in length or height to several hundred feet.

    COVID-19 COMMUNITY GROUPS DIRECTORY updated 13 August 2020 1 DM20_295 ONLINE INTRODUCTION The communities of Wiltshire have risen to the challenge of COVID-19 to make sure people are supported through this very difficult time. The council has collated all the community groups we have identified so far so that those who need support for themselves or a loved one can make direct contact. In the time available we have only been able to collate this directory and therefore this is not an endorsement of the groups listed but it is for you to decide what use you will make of the offers of support at this time. If anyone uses a community group and has concerns about the response/practice please inform us by emailing [email protected] giving the clear reasons for your concern. The council wants to ensure that everybody can access the support they need. If you make contact with a group and they cannot help or you do not get a response within the required timeframe, then please do not hesitate to contact the council by emailing [email protected] and we will ensure you get the support you need. FOOD BANKS At this difficult time, food banks are in need of more volunteers and donations. If you are able to help in any way please get in touch with your local food bank. Food banks are there to support vulnerable people in a crisis, which is usually subject to a referral from a trusted source such as a social worker.

    Broad Hinton and Winterbourne Bassett Parish Council

    Broad Hinton and Winterbourne Bassett Parish Council 2019 Feedback on proposed changes to Electoral Boundary Review The Electoral Commission’s original Boundary review recommendations to Parliament in Sept 2018 included our Parish (Broad Hinton & Winterbourne Bassett) in the West Selkley ward, Marlborough Area and new Devizes & East Wilts constituency. Since then it has been proposed to move us from not only our Ward, but also our Area Board and Constituency. The information set out below supports statistically and historically, why we believe we should and can remain according to the Commission’s 3 criteria. The Commission states;- In drawing up a pattern of electoral divisions, the Commission must balance it’s three statutory criteria, namely: 1. To deliver electoral equality where each county councillor represents roughly the same number of electors as others across the county. 2. That the pattern of divisions should, as far as possible, reflect the interests and identities of local communities. 3. That the electoral arrangements should provide for effective and convenient local government. Our Parish’s connection with Marlborough is substantial. Within our Parish we hold 4500 years of historic, geological, farming and community links with Marlborough.The Chalk Hackpen Hill White Horse, part of the Ridgeway Roman road to Avebury and Neolithic stones all lie within our Parish, connecting us along the Winterbournes and the waterway flows direct from Marlborough to our Parish. We are included in the Marlborough Downs. The North Wessex Downs AONB, which covers the entirety of Marlborough area, extends to our Parish and to Clyffe Pypard. Unfortunately, this substantial connection to Marlborough and not to Lyneham area doesn’t seem to hold any water with the Commission and it is perceived to be only about numbers.
