As we see an easing in COVID restrictions, the Parish Council is supporting the local Walking for Health group to attract more ramblers, increasing the footfall in the village, retail outlets, cafes and pubs etc, also encouraging use of the local rail service. A small grant has been secured from West Midlands Railway, primarily to establish a web site (www.albrightonrailramblers.co.uk) and produce advertising material and it is in this latter regard that I seek your support.
At this time, the distribution of leaflets is not being encouraged, leaving notice boards and social media as the best means of advertising this initiative. A poster expanding on this is attached and I would be very grateful if you could circulate this as widely as possible in your locality. Additional ”hard copies” can be posted to you, if required, by phoning 01902 441748.
I thank you, in anticipation of your support and assistance.
Over the coming months we will share ideas that we can all consider, to make a real contribution towards this very important issue that affects us all.
The tree planting season runs between November and March so now is the perfect time to get started! The Woodland Trust have a handy guide to make sure your tree planting is as successful as possible. By taking steps at home like planting trees, you are taking direct action today that will protect the environment and help to mitigate climate change for future generations. Please let us know if you have space for a tree in your garden and maybe we can provide you with one.
