Coffee Morning chatter

Well, what a lovely morning was had by all yesterday at the monthly coffee morning.  We had 27 people turn out to enjoy it.  Our chief cooks and bottle washers Maria, Emma and Beth did us proud with a lovely selection of cakes and Chris and Hilary brought and arranged some lovely jars of flowers to bring a bit of Spring into the room.   Beth only moved into the village in November so it was lovely that she offered to help out and to meet and talk to her partner John.  

But best of all, was the people and the conversations and general buzz around the room.  Sometimes its just nice to get out and have a chat, and the last Saturday of every month is the place to do it in Adderley.  We took £60.45 which was marvellous.  This money goes into the Community Fund Bank account  and people from the village will decide how it is used to provide for the community.  

Come and join us for the February one, Sat 25th Feb, 10.30 – 12 and lush cakes, coffee and good conversation along with a warm welcome are all guaranteed. 

If you would like to get more involved in supporting or attending community events why not ask us to add your name to the Community Whats App Group we have set up for Nice Place to Be volunteers?  We currently have 30 people who share info about events, ask for help with events or contribute/volunteer their time to support on the app.  You would be very welcome.

It’s Coffee time

Coffee Morning Header

We know! Everyone has been hunkered down away from the snow, ice and generally cold weather. Not to worry, the weekend offers some cloudy but slightly warmer respite and it’s coffee morning again! 

We haven’t see you since before Christmas and we’re just dying to know what everyone has been doing. We want to hear Christmas stories about Grandchildren and just what did you get for Christmas? It’s time to talk about plans for the Spring and what to do in the garden. We can moan about the weather, tell stories, swap gossip and all while have a cup of tea and a piece of cake. What’s not to like?

So, see you Saturday, 10:30 until 12:00. we’re looking forward to it.

P.S. If you know of anybody who likes to come to coffee morning but isn’t a big fan of the internet, just let them know because we’d love to see them too.

P.P.S. Know anybody who hasn’t discovered coffee morning yet? Bring them along. £2.00 gets you coffee or tea and cake.

Village Defibrilator

The Village Defibrillator (based on the outside wall of the Village Hall facing the bowling club) was again used last week (successfully we are pleased to report).

But a few reminders to all.

If needed please call 999 and ask for “Ambulance”, give the call handler the Cabinet number (it is on the cabinet front), they will give you the code to open the cabinet.

Remove the Defib and deploy. Once switched on it will give you full instructions by sound as how to use it.

Once used and you are ready, please inform myself or any Parish Councillor (Contact details are on the Village Hall outdoors notice board) that you have deployed the defib and they will arrange to collect it and we will then replace the parts needed and put back in the cabinet ready for reuse.

This is a Village facility looked after the Parish Council and as such there is NO cost to the user and we ask people not to fear using it.

I have been asked if we can run another Defib/CPR course, and this is being organised at present and more info will be sent out when confirmed.

Any questions, people should contact Cllr Marius Coulon.
