Newsletter from Cotford St Luke

Cotford St Luke now has five representatives on the Parish Council so this should help to progress any issues which need sorting. We all look forward to having the roads finished and adopted by the council and for the village in general, to feel finished and tidy and not looking like a building site. The names, addresses and 'phone numbers of the Parish Councillors can be seen by looking on the village notice board or visit the Parish Council page.

Here we are in the second half of the year. Where have all the weeks gone?
As mentioned in my March newsletter, due to my involvement with many
other local things, I shall not be writing for the magazine any longer after the
December issue. A volunteer is needed to take over from me, so if anyone is
willing to continue writing a monthly newsletter please get in touch with me on
430374 and I’ll be pleased to offer any help or information I can.
Judging for the annual Best Front Garden Competition took place during
the first half of July and the results will be announced at a Gardeners’ Evening
to be held in September/October (date and time to be announced). The
judges deserve medals for tramping around the village in such awful weather
conditions!
We shall be holding a Coffee Morning on Friday 26th September from 10.30am to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Relief. We would like to invite
our local friends and neighbours to join us in “The World’s Biggest Coffee
Morning”. There will be a bring and buy stall, cake stall and plant stall.
