Working party 3rd March

I wasn't able to take part in today's working party, but by all accounts it was a great success. Here's Chairman John's message:

Hello All

 

Well you really did respond magnificently to my rallying cry, the closest to a plea for help that I have ever allowed myself.  Thank you very much for working this morning and helping to achieve so much.  With one more session, Saturday 16th March, it is clear that we will come jolly close to meeting this year’s target which, given the hardships of weather and sickness, is a splendid achievement.  Remember that without your sustained effort the Common would quickly revert to rank scrub and the rare plants that the place supports would soon disappear.  Then we would lose the reason for its SSSI status and the legal protection that goes with it.  Remember also, that without you Southrepps Parish Council would inherit an impossible liability for upkeep which it couldn’t possibly afford, and another precious piece of  nature’s wonderful tapestry would vanish.  So, all in all, you can be justifiably proud of giving something back for the benefit of not just Southrepps but all the visitors who enjoy the fruits of your labour. 

 

Thank you and best wishes from John
