On Sunday March 3rd 10am-3pm we are holding a work party on the Millennium Field and are asking residents to give a couple of hours of time to help us get the playing field ready for the spring and summer – there are weeding, pruning, cleaning and small maintenance tasks required. Many hands will hopefully make light work.
Please come along and help!

On the Millennium Field, we have a large Community Compost heap – it is nearly full! It contains some very well-rotted composted that is ideal for gardens especially at this time of year! Please help us by coming and helping yourself to a barrow or bucket load so we have enough space for the coming year’s grass cuttings.

At our meeting (7:30 Village hall Thursday 13th September) we will be discussing the next steps in obtaining a 20mph speed limit in Sedgwick. The motion is

Following over a decade of resident concern over pedestrian safety in our village, Sedgwick Parish Council would like to formally request that a 20mph speed limit be introduced in the Village. We have almost no pavements or street lighting, resident parking is on the roadside make it difficult for pedestrians to cross the roads, traffic levels are disproportionately high, as we are used as a rat run between Brettargh Holt and the A65 (and this will worsen as new housing developments are built), there are many agricultural vehicles that need to use the village centre and there are countless near misses under the narrow aqueduct and on blind junctions. We believe a 20mph speed limit would radically improve pedestrian safety for our residents.

Please come along to express your views.

Unfortunately the vandalism that is taking place on the Canal and Millennium Field has escalated. The Stoker Seat at the Sedgwick Hill Bridge End of the Canal Wildlife Area has been vandalised and left completely unsafe. It has been removed and the matter has been reported to the Police. If anyone has information about the damage, please contact us.

A replacement will cost approximately £1000 or 10% of our annual budget and this wlll mean we will have less money available for other areas.

We have been advised by the Police, to install CCTV cameras to deter the people responsible.
