Gardening Club

Just a reminder that Gardening Club is tonight in the church at 7.30pm. Sally Nex will be talking about Heritage Vegetables. Her talk last year was very enjoyable. A good evening with refreshments and raffle afterwards. Don’t forget the best flower in your garden for the competition. See you there.

Thanks

Elisabeth

Last Chance – 4 places left!

Timberscombe Parish Council have organised a FREE First Aid course on Monday 21st September at 6.30pm in the Village Hall. 

This training is open to all who would be interested, free of charge ( you may make a donation to the group, who are offering this training free of charge, if you wish but it is not required). No previous experience needed.

As I hope you are all aware, we have a village defibrillator situated in The Glebe telephone box. The Parish Council have also purchased a Bleed Kit which is in the phone box too.

The First Aid training will cover basic life support, the safe use of a public access defibrillator and use of a bleed kit.  It will be run by The Minehead Community Defib Group, who gave us such excellent training a few years ago.

Could you please email me if you would like to attend as I need to let the organisers know how many will be present: la.webb@btinternet.com

There are limited places, which will be filled on a first come first in basis.

Temporary closure of footpath

Please be aware that there is a temporary closure of Public Footpath WL 25/27 at Wanneroo Farm, from the point where it leaves the track near Wanaroo Farm at SS 9536 4223 to the footbridge near Wanaroo Farm at SS 95294223 for a total distance of approximately 80 metres due to a dangerous tree leaning on the fence adjacent to the footpath and likely to collapse.

  • The closure will take immediate effect and will remain in force for 21 days – works are planned to remove the tree on Monday 7th September and the footpath will reopen as soon as these are complete. There is no alternative route.
