CHAMPION CHADDESLEY CHICKS !

On Saturday night May 11th, three Chaddesley Chicks:
Brenda Bartlett, Jo Powick and Nikki Davies 
took part in this year's London Moonwalk raising money for Women's Breast cancer.
It is estimated. that 1 in 8 women will be affected by Breast cancer.

17 000 women took part in this year's massive fundraiser.

"We arrived at Battersea Power Station in a flash torrential downpour but were determined to meet the challenge .
Starting out at 00.18pm and 14miles later we crossed the finishing line at 05.15am, tired but happy to have taken part in such a massive event."

Donations can still be made to this very worthwhile cause by logging on to www.walkthewalkfundraising.org

You can make a difference.


CHADDESLEY CORBETT VILLAGE HALL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE     
Annual General Meeting ~ Tuesday 16th April 2013

The 45th AGM of the Village Hall committee saw Carol Page give her 11th and final report on the running of the Hall over the previous 12 months before standing-down as Chairman.
The hall had operated most successfully under the direction of the Hall Manager, Marie Pardoe, ensuring a high level of income from bookings from hirers who continued to be full of praise for the standard of the venue and the work undertaken by our cleaner.
The audited Treasurer’s Report was approved. The year saw the re-building of reserves to a recommended level higher than had previously been held but funds had still allowed for boiler servicing and electrical systems and PAT testing. Yvonne Scriven had successfully concluded negotiations with Severn-Trent over water issues but now had to tackle Big Lottery Funding which, following the installation of solar panels on the roof, had decided to alter terms and conditions, retrospectively. Yvonne was thanked for her outstanding and meticulous work on the accounts.
Carol Page expressed her thanks to all who had worked with and along-side her in this and previous years – including the two retiring members of the committee, Pat Baines (who had worked from 1977-2013) and Val Adams (1999-2013) – two ladies who had put fifty years of voluntary commitment into helping their community.
Carol then received the thanks of the Trustees and the committee for her work both in committee and on-the-ground ensuring the smooth day-to-day running of the premises. A presentation was made.
Harry Grove was then voted as Carol’s successor as Chair. He remains the Licence holder for the hall; and Carol retains a seat on the committee. 
The hall will be closed between 12th and 25th August to enable the annual full cleaning programme, servicing and testing of equipment, and the refreshing of exterior paintwork.

Then, welcome back, everybody!

Tall Trees in the Greenwood

The committee of Cassian Players would like to thank everyone who contributed so generously to the financial success of the production.
£1,000 has been given to Chaddesley Corbett District Church Council (St Cassian’s) towards the very necessary repairs to the south aisle roof.

Noye’s Fludde 2015

Cassian Players are pleased to announce our next production in St. Cassian’s church will be Noye’s Fludde. Performance dates are 27th 28th 29th 30th March 2015.
Noye’s Fludde is based on a 15th century Chester Miracle play and follows the biblical story quite closely. It was set to music by Benjamin Bri?en in 1957 and first performed the following summer during the Aldeburgh Fes?val in Orford church, Suffolk.
It has a large cast of children and we are working closely with the staff and pupils of Chaddesley Primary School. Plans are already underway to hopefully include the play in the school curriculum for 2014/15. The play has approximately 15 adult characters, a choir and possibly the largest orchestra ever assembled in St. Cassian’s, including a huge percussion section and handbells.
Although a very exciting project it will be a challenging one, nothing on this scale has been attempted before by Cassian Players so organising the orchestra has already begun and singing rehearsals will start in October 2014. 
The production will be directed by Barry Carpenter, with Richard Vale producer. We will keep you up to date as soon as we know more details.

MOWING ROTA

so it really is a 'rota' !


Our local 'Bobby' on the beat

PC Andy Wallace
Kidderminster Local Policing Team

Tel: 101 ext 3914

PC Wallace started his career with West Mercia Police 21 years ago when he was based in Kidderminster. After three years at Kidderminster he transferred to Droitwich, then moved two years later to a divisional traffic unit before joining the Force Operations department at Hindlip.

A WALLACE

After more than 15 years of working on specialist units, PC Wallace decided to move into local policing.

"This is a new and exciting role for me and I'm enjoying engaging with the local community."

"I am PC Andy Wallace the local policing officer for the rural areas around Kidderminster.
I cannot emphasise  enough the importance of the public reporting anything suspicious to their neighbourhood watch coordinators, but if its something that needs a police response there and then, can I urge you report it direct to the police 'there and then if possible' rather than via the watch coordinator who might be out, etc."

NOTICES    NEIGHBOURHOOD PLAN 

Chaddesley Corbett Parish Council has been awarded a Grant of £20,000 in the fifth wave of communities to use neighbourhood planning powers introduced in the Localism Act.  This key part of the Government's Localism agenda aims to give local people a major say in shaping development in their area.   Communities will be able to decide the type and design of developments which will be given automatic planning permission.   For the first time communities will be in the driving seat and can shape the way they want their area to develop instead of having a vision imposed on them from above.   Neighbourhood Planning encourages people to plan positively for their future and is a real opportunity to deliver the homes and jobs communities need to thrive.
