Christmas Market and Tree lighting
In 2023 we started our first Village Christmas Tree lighting event, in 2024 we expanded it to include a Christmas Market, with a whopping 34 stall holders. Through our stall holders we were able to donate £170 to our local charity. We hope to grow on this success in 2025.
If you would like to be part of our
Fund our next memorial bench
The Rec Committee are often asked if it is possible to donate a tree, perhaps in memory of an individual. Given the anticipated future growth of current trees in the Rec, in effect, the grounds are ‘full.’ In recent years we have installed 18 benches/seats at the Rec, all made of recycled plastic. They have all been donated by individuals, families, clubs or organisations. Together with other improvements, we hope you agree how good the Rec is now looking.
We have an opportunity to install two benches between the recently planted trees by the playground. They could be used by people watching youngsters play in the playground or watching activities on the field. They would be similar to those currently at the Rec.
The cost, including installation and vat is £675.00 A commemorative plaque can be added for an extra £130.00.
If anyone is interested in donating a bench or giving a donation
towards the project please contact Mark Hutchison at Groundsmanager.CRC@outlook.comor 07973 553239. Thank you in anticipation for your support.
