The candidates for the next election for the Tiverton and Minehead constituency  will be :

Jonathan Barter (Labour); Laura Buchanan (Green Party); Rachel Gilmour (Lib Dem); Fred Keen (Reform UK); Ian Liddell-Grainger (Conservative).

On Thursday 20th June at 2.30pm at St Petrock’s Church there will be a special school service of Holy Communion. At this service four children from Class Two will be admitted to Holy Communion. This will be the first time they have received Holy Communion and it marks an important moment on their journey of faith. All are welcome to come along and support them at this special service. Refreshments will be provided after the service.

I have contacted Somerset  Council (who now run the Somerset Waste Partnership) and they are now aware that the recycling crews will need to change their collection times to ensure that our waste is collected before 9am or after 3pm, during the Wessex Water road closures. We will see if it happens !!!

I have had queries regarding using the Village Hall car park during the closure. Whilst the Village Hall Committee have been very flexible about cars in the car park overnight during past road closures, this will not be possible during the daytime. The school pays the Hall to use the carpark and their cars usually fill the car park during school time. There is very unlikely to be any spaces between 9am and 3pm when the school is open.

If you are able to park in a friend’s driveway, please do so. If not it seem likely that we will have to park on the main road, unless anybody has any better suggestions! Please park carefully to avoid blocking the vision of those exiting Vicarage Court, Brook Street, The Old Dairy or using the bus stop.

Please also use the Post Office (where possible) , or a friend’s address for deliveries.

The B3224 top road to Taunton will be closed all week between 9.30 and 3.30 between Blagdon Lane and Round House, near Withiel Florey for resurfacing.
