Most of you will have seen the defibrillator in the old telephone box opposite Daisy Hill. Would you like to attend a free session at the village hall to teach you CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and to learn how the defibrillator works? If so, please contact juliet.semple@dunstew.com before Friday 21st June.
The session would likely to be held in July in the evening
Pooper Snooper, a free smartphone application and website aims to build public awareness and in turn increase social pressure on dog fouling, and to identify problem hotspots to allow for better targeted enforcement activities.
To achieve these aims, the mobile app, enables you to quickly and accurately record the locations of dog fouling on an interactive map, providing an overview of dog fouling hotspots. Any dog fouling incidents that are cleaned up can be marked as resolved, and bin locations can be recorded within the app, with a “find nearest bin” function helping you locate bins in unfamiliar areas. To help raise public awareness you can share your records along with an overview of dog fouling in the local area, on Twitter and Facebook.
The first, small step in the plan to improve our park. We have purchased new seats and chains for the swings, to replace the old seats, which were falling apart.

Thanks to all who attended the Duns Tew Energy Park public consultation on the 5th April 2019. The feedback was generally positive with a lot of interest and support for the opportunity to have community ownership of the proposed solar park.
The importance of identifying a suitable construction access route was strongly communicated and is also of paramount importance to us. As highlighted, this is just the beginning of the consultation process with numerous additional consultation events being held over the coming months.
For those who were not able to attend the first consultation, we will be attending Open Farm Sunday at Hill Farm on 9th June 2019 where there will be further opportunity to discuss the proposal, understand more about community ownership and have a guided tour of the existing solar park.
If you would like further information regarding the community ownership proposal, please contact us using the contact form on www.aspeninfrastructure.co.uk/duns-tew

Tremendous thanks to everyone who turned up today to help tidy-up the park. It’s looking distinctly better, not yet great, but better.
It’s not all about the park though. Please spare a little time tending to your own property.
