   Last night’s AGM was a bittersweet experience for me. Sweet in the sense that it was a real celebration of the enormous effort by the Committee and the various individuals in moving the New Build Project forward, and gaining the fantastic success of the first round BLF funding. This is an awesome acheivement, and has involved a lot of dedicated, focussed and sustained work (I know – I still have fond memories of a wife who used to enjoy a little relaxation before she got involved in this project). – Great presentations from Val and Peter too.

   The dissapointing part of the evening was the turn out.
   - Only 19 people including the committee!

   If Parwich is really going to build something for the generations to come, and improve the quality of life for all in the village, it’s going to take a supreme effort. This is a really exciting project and thanks to the Committee and others, it has a real chance of success.

   I encourage blog readers to join in the fun, and help to build something for the future of Parwich by offering their efforts – no matter how small.

   Please help…….

   At last, only three or four weeks later than planned, the more traditional web pages are now loaded at http://www.parwichmemorialhall.org/.

   All the links are not established yet as this version is primarily for members of the Memorial Hall and Project Parwich Teams to look at and give their comments on. Also please email more content for these pages (and their planned sub-pages) to parwichmemorialhall@hotmail.com.

   Working on putting these plans onto the Memorial Hall website has left me very impressed with what has been achieved. Further, looking at all these drawings, what immediately strikes me is how well the proposed new building fits in with the surrounding buildings. Well done to all the Committee Members, to the sub-groups and to the Parish Council.

   I had personally been in favour of a move to the sports’ fields, which would have released this site for affordable housing. The community vote made this no longer an option, but these plans have convinced me that we can after all achieve our aspirations on this small plot in the middle of the village.

   I do have a few questions: is the square between the former Spar Shop and Fernlea cart shed essential for these plans; although the right of way can not be permanently blocked, will it be included in the general garden area and be available for access to the rear of the building; is it possible to use the building to light up the footpath along side the Hall; also, is there scope for enhancing the War Memorial aspects of the building (perhaps members of the Legion would have ideas)?
