Gritting Update – Sun 6 Dec

Matt and Colin have been out tonight and gritted the hill for us so grateful thanks to them for doing this.
We would still like to have a few more volunteers to help out, the team is not large and a few more would enable us to spread the load a bit more. People just aren’t available every time. You go out as a team of two, the driver now only needs a vehicle with a tow bar to take part. Please contact the Parish Clerk if you could help.
