UPDATE 18/03/2020: Due to Gov advise we do not think it prudent to hold a meeting.

Councillor Sue Billows writes:

To manage a sustainable and reliable support service The Parish Council needs to work with other community groups. So firstly we need to engage with a village group who are prepared to lead a support network.. To clarify the group needs to be an organization with a recognized presence, management team and terms of reference.

The good news is the Parish Council would be able to offer financial & project support to a group that met the above criteria. The Parish Council will be able to make representations on behalf of the village for grants or hardship funds that may become available.

I won't bore you with all the small print that makes this so, we have more important things to think about than discuss The Localism Act 2011 or KPC Financial Regulations.

What we need is a Community group to say; yes we will lead and the Parish Council will give it support.

I am grateful to the individuals who have offered help, and also my thanks to Beth for offering to help with the Scouts and Cubs to distribute leaflets, etc.

I very much want to develop a localized Kingsley Support mechanism. These larger groups are doing a great job but if we experience lockdowns and more regulations regarding self-isolation Kingsley will need to be self-sufficient. I will give all the support I can and am to help and happy to do some running around and whatever needed ( lol not Dog walking I am a Cat lady )

Simon is working on some clever software to form a mailing list for volunteers which he will publish soon. If there is someone out there that is an officer in one of our many groups who feel they can help and lead for us please call me..07710681031

We have the Community lets now find the Spirit.

Thank You
