Andrew Barnes
The Parish Council was extremely saddened by the recent passing of Andrew Barnes. Over many years, Andrew had assisted the Parish Council and the community, with various projects and his hard work and support had been invaluable. He would be greatly missed by many people and the Parish Council had sent its sincere condolences to his family at this very difficult time.
During June 2019, there had been a meeting of Adderbury Parish Council on 25 June, a meeting of the Environment Committee on 5 June and a meeting of the Staffing Committee on 11 June. The next meeting of the Environment Committee was scheduled for Wednesday 24 July at 7.30 pm at the Church House.
The two vacancies on the Parish Council had now been filled. Andy Millard and Laura Walker would be welcomed to their first meeting on Tuesday 30 July. Rhys Owens had been invited to be co-opted onto the Environment Committee.
Thames Valley Police is appealing for witnesses following a burglary in Adderbury.
We will soon be asking the houses around the Green for their annual £35 donation towards grass cutting and insurance in 2019 and any donations from other houses in the village are always gratefully received. As some villagers suggested as part of the fund raise last year, we have contacted HMRC to register the Adderbury Green Association as a charity to enable gift aid to be claimed on future donations. We should hear whether we have been successful or not in July.
We are very pleased to announce that the Reverend Liz Simpson has accepted the offer to become the new vicar of the Parish of Adderbury with Milton.
