Did you receive our latest Newsletter in the last few weeks?
As some of you know, the company that used to print and post our Newsletters is no longer trading so we’ve had to make alternative arrangements. If you didn’t receive a hard copy, or know of someone else who didn’t, or if you experienced any problems with delivery then please email me at: clerk@somerfordparishcouncil.gov.uk
It would be helpful if you could provide your address too so I can check if we have the most up to date distribution list.
Keeping everyone in the community informed, connected, and up to date. You’ll find news about local projects, decisions made by the council, community events, and information that supports day‑to‑day village life.
Our aim is to highlight opportunities to get involved, and celebrate the people and activities that help make our parish a great place to live. Whether you’re looking for updates, reminders, or ways to take part, we hope this newsletter serves as a helpful resource for all residents.
