Ellerker Playing Fields AGM Tuesday 5th April 2022

New committee members are needed for the Ellerker Playing Field Committee.

Please join our AGM on Tuesday 5th April at 7pm in the Village Hall.

To meet the trustee requirements, we need a minimum committee of 5 to oversee the management of the playing fields and fundraise for the upkeep.

Are you interested in looking after our green spaces?  We need at least 4 Ellerker residents to join please as 4 committee members are stepping down. The committee must consist of at least a Chair, Treasurer, Secretary and 2 other trustees. To give an idea of commitment, we usually have around 4 meetings per year (including AGM) and manage adhoc issues by email or what’s app.

Looking forward to seeing you at the meeting.

Ellerker Parish Council Meeting

The next Parish Council meeting is in Ellerker Village Hall at 7.30pm on Thursday 10th March 2022 – all village residents are welcome. The meeting agenda can be viewed here.

On 21 February 2022, the prime minister announced that the government will be removing remaining domestic restrictions in England. The government guidance can be found here, including the plan for living with COVID-19. From 24 February 2022, people will not be legally required to self-isolate if they test positive for COVID-19. The advice in the guidance is to stay at home if you can and avoid contact with other people. In order to decrease the risk of catching and passing on COVID-19, the government advises people to get vaccinated. It advises letting fresh air in if meeting inside or meeting outside and to consider wearing a face-covering in crowded and enclosed spaces. It also says to try to stay at home if unwell and to take a test if you have symptoms.
