'Community Led Plan'

The telephone box has been unused now for some long time, and there was agreement at one time (after some consultation) for it to be a library (perhaps administered by the Book Club), and then there was an idea that it might house a second debrillator (and it would be good to know what use has been made of the first.) Perhaps the best thing would be as a combined information point and library (and there might even be room for a defibrillator as well, though the village might find a better place for that... Like the church porch?) In any event, perhaps the village should be asked what it would prefer?

I agree with a previous post by someone. Richard has done well creating this forum. I have always said to people, our council needs something like this on a app. This would take this village into 2023. Apps are easier to use and you get notice pings when wanted. So much in this village can be done if we utilise the people we have and i feel and app would make Filkins more inclusive. Different opinions good or bad are better than stale opinions from the same type of people all the time. You can have needed open forums like this on it. Work needed space, where people can log there interest to help. Events and a diary and loads more. And yes i know we have a news letter and web page. We have moved on from a telegram and its got to be time to make another jump to encourage inclusivity?

Morning - as i was walking behind the Woollen Weavers I thought it would be a great idea to have 2 benches facing each other on the bridge over the stream. A great focal point to take a rest, aapreciate the wildlife and chat to each other. SO please can we get 2 benches ASAP for this purpose and lets see how the people react. I know I would love it and Karen Jobling has also said an "amazing" idea. DO IT. thankyou.
