Reminder

Good morning everyone

Just a quick reminder that our next litter pick will be next Monday 30th November – meet 2pm in Tesco car park.

Also, could I just mention that the Christmas Fayre is taking place on Saturday in the town centre. We have been asked to help out with stewarding around the Bull Ring during the Lights Switch-On, so several of us will be there doing our bit to keep everyone safe and probably doing a bit of litterpicking at the same time. So, if you're free on Saturday afternoon, get your hi-vis jacket and come along to join in the fun. The Makers Market will be on all day from 10am, there will be entertainment from 2pm, then the countdown for the Switch-On will start at 4pm in the Bull Ring, culminating with the Lights at 4.30 followed by the fireworks.

I hope to see some of you at the litter pick on Monday or at the Christmas celebrations on Saturday.

Very best wishes,
Janet Chisholm B.E.M.

New Townbridge Bench

MIDDLEWICH Clean Team has placed a new bench and planters at Townbridge for everyone to enjoy. Last year's town mayor and clean team member Councillor Bernice Walmsley supported the clean team as one of her mayor’s charities and the clean team planned to use this to place a new bench at Townbridge to replace the old one. That plan has now materialised, Cllr Walmsley said: “It’s great to see the bench in place and looking so at home on Town Bridge. The donation came from my fundraising when I was Mayor of Middlewich and it has taken a while to get it sorted, but I’m sure everyone will agree that it has been worth taking the time to get it right. I’d like to thank everyone involved for making this happen". Stephen Dent, vice-chairman of Middlewich Clean Team, said: “We are very grateful to Cllr Bernice Walmsley for the donation to the clean team from the town mayor's charity fund. We hope the new feature at Townbridge brightens up this otherwise drab gateway into town."  

The bench was made by Carl Dennis, at Roadodendrons using wood milled at Wild Wood Saw Milling in Over Peover.
