As is always the case, many folk put in a great deal of effort to make it all happen, and big-up thanks to them! HanneyFest raised an amazing £3,403.34p! Read more

'Start-a-heart' is a new initiative by the South Central Ambulance Service to encourage everyone to learn how to do CPR and save some lives! They are running short training sessions in any workplace in the county that has 10 or more employees, so it's time to pester your boss, or if you are the boss, to contact them at www.scas.nhs.uk.They also give community group lessons, will come to the village, and it's free. If you're interested, let me know soonest... 01235 867500 or jimstagg@NOSPAMbtinternet.com, (removing NOSPAM) and I'll try and organise a bunch of us. What's not to like, apart from the possibility of hearing some Bee Gees music! (They played 'Staying Alive' on the recent TV ads, cos that's the beat at which you're meant to pump someone's chest apparently. Screens Matron!) Read more
