PARISH QUESTIONNAIRE - Herefordshire Council and the parish council have put together an independent questionnaire, enabling all parishioners to express their views on a wide range of subjects that affect daily lives. Some months ago, there were a series of public consultations that culminated with the forming of a Steering Group. This group of volunteers met on a number of occasions in order to put together a questionnaire relevant to our own parish. The point has been reached where the document is ready for distribution during the weekend of January 29. There will be one questionnaire per adult and one designed for five to 15 year-olds. In order to encourage all to participate and return the completed document to the post box in the village hall by Saturday, February 12, all returns will be entered in a prize draw to take place at a public meeting to be announced later. At the meeting there will be a presentation of the professionally analysed results and a draft action plan.

ADVISORY COMMITTEE - The Diocesan Advisory Committee has given their approval over proposals for the Fredrick Preedy Reredos paintings.
