As of yesterday, the 16th April, the Urgent Care Services from Princes Royal and Royal Shrewsbury have been temporarily moved to Whitchurch and Bridgnorth. You can see details in the attached notice from Shrewsbury and Telford NHS Trust.

The Shepleys have very kindly set up a volunteer book bank in the bus shelter at the end of Rectory Lane. It’s free to use so help yourselves.

In return if you have any books or games with which you have finished please contribute them for others to use.

The attached document has the opening times for surgeries and pharmacies over the Easter break. Particularly important information in the current emergency.

Gardening is something we all focus on at this time of year, but its the time of year when we normally flock to our local garden centres to pick up those vital items that make our summer gardens all we want them to be.  With those garden centres closed, you may be wondering what to do. 

Never fear, help is at hand from Westholme Nurseries in Woore.  They are running on a skeleton staff but are trying their best to fulfil delivery of orders if you telephone them.  Having spoken to them they have asked that you telephone with a card payment, NOT email orders. Telephone Number is:  01630 647289  The offer is basic but helpful:

• vegetable plants,
• compost, canes etc
• bird feed,
• weedkiller/plant food etc from the shop.  
• No Shrubs can be supplied but bedding plants should be available from the end of April. 
• Minimum fee for an order will be £20 so if you only need a small amount we suggest you team up with a neighbour for delivery to one address.

The phone lines are open from 9am – 3pm each day, and if the line is engaged please leave your number and they will call you.  From 3- 5pm they are busy sorting out the orders for delivery.  If you are on Facebook follow this link to their page where there is a list of all the vegetable plants that you can order. 

Orders will be delivered to your door.
