• BRR, IT'S COLD!! APPEAL FOR BLANKETS FOR THE ANIMALS AT THE CLYMPING DOG SANCTUARY:
  "I would like to appeal to the people of our lovely village for any unwanted blankets or duvets. These will be for the Clymping Dog Sanctuary, as the weather is cold at the moment they need all they can get and my other half and myself have volunteered to try and help.
  I would be willing to pick them up from anybody’s house in our area and will take them to the sanctuary.
  If people have any and would like to arrange pick up, they can contact me on 01903 242459 or mobile 07955081721. If we could help, that would be wonderful and so good for the woofs. Thank you. Brian." ([email protected])

A lovely email from a visitor to our village and our website:
Hi Jennifer  I find your website very interesting. I am not a resident of the area just a frequent visitor so can't help with a contribution. However, I would like you to know that I enjoy visiting your lovely village in the summertime and reading about it during the long dark evenings almost upon us. Best Wishes. Ron. (Ronald Potter)   Thank you, Ron!
