The Friends of Welland ferret race night is tomorrow (Saturday), first race at 7.30pm. Tickets are £5 adults and £1 primary schoolchildren from the Post Office or any of the committee members or on the door.

Included in the ticket price is a light supper, but if you want to drink alcohol, please bring it with you!

There is an appeal out for anyone who wishes to sponsor a race, could they please get in touch with a committee member by tonight, so that they can be added to the programme of events.

The Doorstep Greens sub-committee were considering the possible sponsorship of public seating at their recent meeting.

It was suggested that for a nominal sum, to include the manufacture and positioning of the nameplate and dedication, individuals/families/local organisations could sponsor a bench.

The main cost would be paid for via the Countryside Agency and the nominal cost by the sponsor. Further details from parish clerk David Sharp on 573213 or email dasharp@lineone.net.
