10:00 am: Spring Litter Pick

–
Saturday 16 Mar 2019

The Preston Trust committee would, once again, like to invite you all to come and help pick up the litter around the village and across the parish.

Do, please, come and join us on The Green, on Saturday, 16 March, at 10.00am. Wear appropriate clothing and footwear, and do, please, bring your rubber gloves! The HiViz jackets and ‘litter-picker’ tools have been requested from NHDC. As usual, we will work in pairs along each lane and footpath, and then bring the filled plastic bags back to The Green.

This short and simple exercise, twice a year, really does help us to clear away the ongoing nuisance of litter in our ‘green and pleasant’ patch. The long established ‘Keep Britain Tidy’ campaign is organising this year a new venture: ‘The Great British Spring Clean’ from March 22nd – April 23rd. The organisers are hoping that c. 500,000 people across the nation will pick up litter in their own areas, concentrating particularly on the ‘single use plastics’. At long last, people are becoming more aware of the ugliness and the danger of litter of all sorts, and the possibility of recycling of materials is being organised.

Just come along, please, and lend a hand with our capable team here, this March. Many thanks.

Liz Hunter, PT committee member.

2:00 pm: Great Easter Egg Hunt


Saturday 20 Apr 2019

Come and join the fun
Starting on the Village Green
Tickets £1 per child

The Preston Trust committee would like to invite you to its Easter Egg Hunt. We are are asking for bookings so that we have enough eggs for everyone and so that if a child has any dietary needs they can still take part in the fun! Simply let us know any allergies or intolerances when you book. Payment of £1 per child will be on the day.

Follow a short trail through the village to where the Easter Eggs have been hidden, with things to do along the way...

A great time to share with your children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews!

We look forward to welcoming you.

Rae, Preston Trust committee member
