I would like to propose raising money for a village mini bus… for use by all organisations in the community. WI, scouts, church, next years icklefest and open gardens trips from one end of the village to the other. Obviously insurances for drivers etc will need to be looked into and discussed but i think it would be a good investment.
Apologies. I am unable to attend this meeting. As always, I am available through the clerk, to assist and advise at any time.
Have a good evening,
David
