I am considering organising a First Aid course aimed at those who care for children in Haslingfield, this could include parents, grandparents and babysitters. It would be a one off 2 hour course covering the basics. It would cost £12.50 per person and take place sometime in the Autumn term, more than one could be arranged if there were sufficient interest. The course would be run by Tim Killick from Cambridge Medical Training. If you think that you might be interested then please complete the poll at: www.starsclub.liveRead more

Forgive this unsolicited message, however as users of the Cantelupe Cycling Access scheme I thought you might be interested to know that we are holding an evening tour of the farm next week exclusively for residents of Haslingfield. This will give you an opportunity to hear about what we do here and ask those questions you’ve always wanted to know the answers to. The tour will be led by Owner/Director Richard Pemberton and our Estate General Manager, David Knott and will start from Cantelupe Farm at 6.00pm. You will be taken to various places of interest on the Estate in a trailer. It is a great chance to hear and ask questions about our work here.
The next Pop-Up Coffee Shop at the Methodist Church is Tuesday 14th June 8:45 – 11:30am in aid of Ovarian Cancer. In April the shop raised £150 for the Alzheimer’s Society. Come along for fairtrade tea, coffee, cakes and pastries. Why not pop-in for breakfast after the school run?
