Hello everyone

A friendly reminder that the next Rural Futures meeting is this Wednesday, 13 November at 7pm in the Town hall.
As discussed in the message below, this meeting will focus on:

Planning a community event.

The purpose of the event is to discuss and publicise the formation of a new community group in Grosmont to lead on community agreed action. This would include an invitation for people to become involved themselves. It has also been suggested as an opportunity to gather wider views on some of the topics under discussion by people in the village since the Shaping Grosmont event/ report. We have previously proposed that this might include people’s views about renovations to the town hall,  market research about the village shop and opportunities to develop a play space but this can be confirmed as part of the event planning.

The aim will be for the event to appeal to a wide section of the community to attend.  Please have a think about what shape this event might take to achieve this. Whilst we do want the chance to talk to people it can be more than a “consultation event” – bring your ideas please!

Please remember, once we have developed plans, Grosmont Events have kindly offered to help provide support with logistics.

I hope to see you on Wednesday- you’ve involvement is absolutely key.

Best wishes

Peter Willis

MESSAGE TO THE VILLAGE

“Well the Town Hall has had a bit of face lift, so do pay a visit when you get the chance.
To celebrate we got together and had a lovely meal with bubbly.
Special thanks to: Mike for his planning, supervision and keeping his Health and Safety hat on at all times.  Mark for going above and beyond with repairing the woodwork and plasterwork to help give a fabulous finish and to Jo and Jan for providing sustenance not only today but over the last three weekends.
Thanks to everyone who helped and hope you are all pleased with the outcome and yourselves, you should be.”

Remembering…..

Friday 1 November is

ALL SAINTS DAY

when we quietly remember those we love
who have died – whenever that happened

Revd Andrew Harter
will lead an act of remembering
in Grosmont Church at 7 p.m. on that day

All are welcome to join us

If you would like to remember someone special
you may like to say their name (s) yourself
or you can write it on a card and Andrew will read it for you

The service will be short, informal and quiet
and we hope that it will bring us all peace
and enable us to thank God
for the families and friends
who have enriched our lives

Below is information that has been sent out to Parish Councils in England and Wales about this event.
