Lots of help needed please, for the Cricket Pitch Maintenance and "Putting to Bed for the Winter" session on Sunday morning, 24th September.
Work includes: grass mowing, scarifying, fertiliser spreading and putting up some protective fencing.
Bacon rolls and refreshments will be provided for the workers!
Friday 15th September saw our last Pop-Up of the season. 28 diners somehow crammed into the pavilion.
A very enjoyable evening with popadoms and pickles, a tasty chicken dopiaza with red lentil dal and brinjal baji. Followed by sweet gulab jamons and ice cream.
Missed it? You missed a treat!
Thank you to Julian and Clara for the making and all the others who helped on the day and throughout the summer.
Hopefully we will do it all again next summer. We look forward to seeing you then!
The results are in! 8 out 10 respondents to our village survey are in support of building a new Village Hall and Sports Pavilion at the Playing Field. For the full details see: www.newvillagehall.co.uk
Weather permitting, this will be on the 4th November. Torchlight procession, huge bonfire, spectacular fireworks.
More details soon.
Thanks to funds raised by Peter Smythe doing a marathon (on his treadmill), plus extra donations from villagers, friends and family and an additional contribution from Sussex Police, Hadlow Down now has an automatic defibrillator at the Playing Field. Together with the device at the Village Hall, Hadlow Down now has two defibrillators in the village.
East Sussex Ambulance Service knows the exact location of this device and the door lock code. In an emergency always call 999 first, ask for ambulance, explain the situation and your location. Instructions will be given.
This defibrillator is available 24/7 and can be used by anyone, not just users of the playing field. So if you live nearby, get to know exactly where it is - just in case of that unlikely emergency!
