The Queen’s 90th Birthday Party – 23rd April 2016

Queens Birthday invitation 23April2016

And a Right Royal Knees-Up it was, with the planting of a tree in the churchyard to commemorate the Queen’s 90th Birthday, tea and cakes fit for a Queen at the Village Hall, the surprise arrival of the queen of the village, Vida Sutton (the VIP guest) and a talent show by the very enthusiastic children (and a few adults, too).  It was an event the Queen would have been proud of, wonderfully organised by Seema Bowers and her able helpers on the Knees-Up Committee.

Polling stations will be open from 7 am until 10 pm on the day.

The result should be known by late afternoon on Friday 6 May and will published be on our website.

I attach a copy of the Statement of Persons Nominated and Notice of Poll, along with the notice of Situation of Polling stations.
