The Parish Council now has a Speed Indicator Device, which will alternate between the main road near Duddings and opposite the Old Dairy. In order to install the device we must have a person with  a Lantra  “Moving Works Operative” qualification. Unfortunately, the councillor who was going to do the training on 28th April at Rooksbridge is unable to go for personal reasons.

This is just a shout out on the off chance that somebody in the village may already have an up to date qualification, or be willing to go on the course (all expenses paid by the Parish Council).

If you are able/willing to help please reply to this email.

Thank you

Lesley Webb (Parish Clerk)
