Community Clean Up Day – Sunday 9 July 10am-12pm

Please come along to help at our next Community Clean Up Day, to be held this Sunday, 9 July from 10am-12pm.  Our key focus will be to clear overgrown pavements, so if you have  half an hour or more to spare and are willing to wield a spade, please come along.  There are a number of pavements in the village which have become difficult to navigate – particularly for those with wheelchairs or pushchairs – due to overgrown grass and foliage and your help really will make a difference.  Litter picking will also be on the agenda for those for whom spade-wielding is not an option!  We can supply the litter pickers, hi-vis vests, gloves and black bags and would ask volunteers to simply bring themselves and sturdy footwear.

Please meet at the Village Hall car park.  We look forward to seeing you there.

Note Put Through Doors Relating to the Planning Application for ‘Shoulders’, North Common Road

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parish Council wishes to make clear that a note received by some households in the eastern end of Wivelsfield Green, relating to a recent planning application at the property known as ‘Shoulders’, was not sent by the Parish Council.  The note was distributed by a resident, who is also a Parish Councillor, but in his capacity as a private individual, not a Council representative.

Councillor Vacancies

Do you love living in Wivelsfield?  Would you like to have a say in the facilities and services available?  Are there things that you would like to see improved?  Could you give up around one evening a month for meetings and have time to do some reading in between?

If you’ve answered yes to any of the above, maybe you would like to consider joining the Parish Council?

Following the recent resignation of John Fair, after two years of serving on the Council, we have four councillor vacancies to fill.  With the Neighbourhood Plan in place and Community Infrastructure Levy money starting to come through, it is an exciting time to be involved.  We’d love to see some more community-minded individuals come forward to help shape the future of the Parish.

To find out more about what’s involved, please contact the Clerk, or come along to a meeting.
