Warcop Parish Council Needs Your Help!

Volunteer Grass-cutters

• Can you spare a couple of hours a week from April to October?
• Would you like to take care of an area of grass near in your village?
• If so, the Parish Council has all the equipment: two ride-on mowers, a hand mower and a strimmer
• All equipment stored centrally in Warcop and Sandford
• We’d like to increase the number of volunteers to cut and strim the grass in specified Parish Council areas in Sandford, Warcop and Bleatarn and keep them tidy.
• Full instruction and guidance will be given.
• The Parish Council will provide insurance.
• Fuel costs will be reimbursed.

By investing in the equipment, the Parish Council has freed up funds from the precept to spend on improving our Parish. If you have any ideas for further improvements, please let us know!

If you’d like to volunteer, please contact David Keetley on 41390

Thanking you in anticipation of your help.

The Parish Council and local residents have helped to provide a new set of planters, including newly-made ones at the village name signs on entry to the villages. Some are made of recycled plastic.

Many thanks to those who have made the planters – especially Mr and Mrs Clee – who filled them with compost, bulbs and flowers. They have also agreed to look after the planters, for which we are very grateful.

They should look wonderful next year when in full bloom and help make our villages look even more attractive.
