Litter Pick – Saturday 28th March

Litter-Pick

On Saturday 28th March we will be holding a village spring clean.  If you would   be prepared to give an hour of your time please come to the Parish Hall for 10am to be issued with gardening gloves and a bin bag.  It would be helpful to have an idea of numbers so please let the Clerk know if you think you can help (ridingmillclerk@gmail.com).

Your support would be greatly appreciated

New Defibrillator

We are pleased to report that the defibrillator has been installed outside the Parish Hall and the PC is very grateful to the Stephen Carey Fund who have helped sponsor this equipment.

The Stephen Carey Fund is a charity set up to help provide emergency first aid training and equipment throughout Northumberland, in memory of a young footballer who died.  The equipment is extremely simple to use but before installation the charity will run free community training sessions on CPR and the use of a defibrillator.

This training will be held on Sunday 22nd February at 2pm in the Parish Hall – all are welcome.
