Survey deadline ~ Friday

Firstly, the ‘What do you want?’ surveyA big thanks to all of you who have already filled it in; it’s really appreciated. If you haven’t yet done so, the good news is that the deadline is extended by a week.  It’ll only take a minute or two to fill, and will help us know which activities and clubs there may be a good amount of interest in. So do please have your say, even if it’s simply to say you aren’t interested!

The survey is open to everyone living in or near the parish, as well as all hall users and visitors from neighbouring parishes.  See here for more information, and to download the form.

The deadline is now Friday 28 March: so, if you didn’t yet get round to handing in your completed survey form, do it now and hand it to a hall committee member, or you can drop it off in the box in the hall when you come to any of the following upcoming events over the coming seven days
