We’re really pleased! Thanks to the wonderful volunteers we have started uploading records to the Adderley Heritage database and you can now search them online. Simply click the link below to go to the Adderley Heritage website and Search The Geoff Butter Collection.

Searching is easy just enter a keyword such as Canal or Railway or Raven House and it will show you what’s already there. If you’re really keen you can use the advanced search to refine what you’re looking for. You can also check out the timeline and proposals for the heritage trail, coming soon.

So far we have about 500 records up there but there are another 2000 to go so we need more volunteers to train on how to prepare records to be uploaded. Interested? Contact  us at trustees@adderleyheritage.co.uk and we can arrange a short training session and you’re on your way. You will need access to a laptop or desktop computer unfortunately you can’t easily do this on a tablet.

The Parish Council has received the following message from Digital Shropshire. You may wish to follow this up.

My name is Nirvana, and I am reaching out on behalf of School of Coding. We are pleased to inform you about a wonderful opportunity for the residents of Shropshire.

In collaboration with Shropshire Council, we are offering a series of free NOCN accredited courses aimed at enhancing skills and fostering personal development within our community. These courses cover a diverse range of subjects and are designed to provide valuable learning experiences.

To provide you with more detailed information, we have attached a leaflet outlining the courses and their benefits.

When we received the following e-mail from BT our first thought was “It’s a scam” but it included our account number and an accurate reflection of charges. So we phoned BT. BT said they didn’t know anything about it but confirmed that someone, they didn’t know who, had applied to transfer our line from BT to themselves. To ease the transfer of telephone lines between suppliers it’s possible for a third party to transfer a telephone service without going directly to the current supplier. This is what has happened in this case. But who? The only clue was the acronym WLR!

WLR refers to Wholesale Line Removal and it’s part of the Big WLR switch off and refers to the removal of PSTN as BT changes over to an all fibre network.  It’s our guess, and it’s only a guess, that as part of the change to full fibre to the home somebody has flagged these lines as ready to be changed over and the software has issued the e-mail.

Don’t ignore this message. IT applies not only to BT but also to any service provider who uses BT circuits and that’s pretty much all of them. If you are somebody who only checks e-mail once a week then we suggest you check your e-mails. Then contact your service provider. We know of at least one other person in Adderley who has received an e-mail and they were with Sky.

If possible, let us know and we will see if this is a problem across the whole of Adderley or just one or two customers. Just drop us a line to webmaster@adderleyparish.co.uk.
