Heron perched in a tree next to Buckshaw Pond www.avpc.org.uk Issue 44 Spring 2021 Council Chair’s Report At our Parish Council Meeting on 7 May 2021, annual appointments took place for Council positions, including membership of various Committees and Working Groups and the election of Chair and Vice Chair of the Parish Council. Laura Lennox had been Chair of the Parish Council for more years than anyone remembers and had been a focal point of contact for the village residents throughout her tenure. In addition Laura has held the positions of Chorley Borough Councillor, and Governor at Buckshaw Primary School and held many other Committee positions serving the Astley Village community. No doubt influenced by Covid over the past year and more, Laura decided that it was time to retire from the Parish Council, along with her husband Chris Lennox, also a Parish Councillor for many years. Both Laura and Chris have lived in the village for almost 40 years, they will both be greatly missed for their experience and hard work and for their combined energy and drive on the Parish Council; we wish them a very long and happy retirement. During the early part of this year we co-opted Council Keith Ashton, resident of Long Croft Meadow, onto the Parish Council and more recently, Matt Lynch of Buckshaw Hall Close, returned to the Parish Council after a three year absence. We welcome both of them as their experience will be a great asset to us all. Contact details of all the Parish Councillors are available on the AVPC website; www.avpc.org.uk With the departure of Laura and Chris we now have vacancies on the Parish Council and we would welcome applications from village residents and others residing within 3 miles of the Parish boundary We have a very active and dynamic group of Councillors and new and diverse blood will be most welcome. -
