The first meeting was held on 7th July where Kevin Thomas volunteered to be Chairman and Sarah Harrowing note taker. The two options of the community extension to the school and Multi-use Games Area were discussed and actions agreed to drive both forward.

Concern was raised about the impact of the development around the village on the two options. But it was felt that we should push on irregardless as it may well not affect our plans at all.

The next meeting planned is August 11th where results of the initial actions will be discussed and preparation made for a formal presentation to the School Governors, planned for September.

Posted around the village are notices for 3 further fields to be included as potential residential purposes for inclusion in the Local Development Plan – PT82, PT83 and PT84. They are in addition to the 3 previous fields PT52, PT62 and PT63 and together they completely encircle the village and show the playing field being built on.

The village meeting to discuss the Charles Church £100K questionnaire results is to be held at the school on June 9th at 7.30pm. It will be combined with the CHCA AGM.

This will be a great opportunity to have your say in how we progress.

Many thanks to all those that contributed to the £158.41 that we raised at the Christmas Parade for Christian Aid.

We also have a number of photo’s of Santa and children that we have been unable to identify. So, if you paid for a photograph and did not receive it, then please contact us through the website.

The CHCA desperately needs new members to be able to function properly. For instance we have had to postpone the production of the Spring newsletter until summer as we simply do not have enough resource to pull it together and run the Charles Church £100K village meeting.

The key roles we need to fill are:

1. Press officer to be able to ring around local businesses during the day and manage our advertising income, and

2 A Treasurer who has experience of managing a bank account and preparing a set of accounts.

If you are interested in either of these officer roles, or indeed becoming a member to help out, then please contact us through the website or via a member.
