Today we've proudly raised the #veday80thanniversary flag as our country commemorates one of the most momentous days in this nation's history. We pay tribute to that special generation and in particular those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
We thank you.

Thank you to everyone who came to our neighbourhood plan review meeting last night. This was very positive with constructive discussions about existing and new planning policies for our village including protections for green space and commercial wind & solar energy generation.

[@SwantonChairman @SwantonChairman]

A very productive meeting tonight as the Parish Council works on the review of its Neighbourhood Plan. Lots of great suggestions for improvements and additions to policies but also recognition of what the existing plan has achieved for the village.

"They shall not grow old, as we are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them"
