I have three things for the Parish Council to update residents on this month.
Firstly, investment in smartening up our our beautiful village. As I said in a previous update we are keen to support people or groups in the village who want to improve our environment. I am delighted to say that this month we have funded our first two such initiatives, which will make a difference in Dorchester and Overy respectively. Hopefully more of you will come forward for financial support, I, or the other parish councillors, would love to hear from you.
Secondly, we have agreed as a council that our more strategic priorities will be to support the village hall development, the playground and the pavilion. So we have begun to set aside funds to support those projects as and when they get off the ground.
Thirdly, one for your diaries, the next Newcomers meeting, to welcome new residents to the delights and activities of Dorchester, is scheduled for Thursday 20th February. Put it in your diary if you are one of those groups, we will be in touch about arrangements as usual. And, of course, all existing residents are welcome to come and rediscover things they have forgotten about!
