Friends of Whatley
Our
Community
Huge thanks for the help at the Parish Field
I’d like to thank all those that helped with the storm damage from storm Darragh to the parish field picnic area fence. We had a great turnout, so much so that we were also able to weed the boules pitches, in preparation for the spring and summer.
Additionally, thank to funding from the Whatley Commons Good Trust we were able to purchase and fit two new gates at the entrance to the field that were in poor repair and that had been sited by the inspection team as in urgent need of replacement.
We are delighted that Friends of Whatley is now officially a Community Interest Company.
All Friends of Whatley meetings are open to all residents of Whatley, no previous attendance or long-term commitment needed. They are held at 6.15pm on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at St George's church.
Next meeting 6.15pm Tuesday March 25th St George's Church
