Whilst Christmas feels like a distant memory to many of us, we would like to say thank you to those people who helped to make the Village look festive over the Christmas period. Thank you to Woods Farm for supplying and delivering the Christmas Tree at the Junction of Lowbrook and Norton Lane, thank you to Margaret and Roger Ballard for allowing us to light their holly tree and finally thank you to Peter Seddon for his help with lighting the trees.
Like many areas litter is a real issue in Tidbury Green. Not only is it unsightly, but it can attract unwanted pests, which can create health hazards and litter can be dangerous for birds and animals. The Parish Council work in partnership with Solihull MBC to arrange regular litter picks and removal of rubbish caused by Fly Tippers. However with restricted resource there is only so much that can be achieved. There are parishioners that are regularly seen picking up litter, and these people make a real difference and the Parish Council are very grateful to them. We understand that it is very annoying when people discard rubbish and we all have that thought of why should I clean up after them?, however if everyone followed this approach our village would have a much worse litter issue. So whatever you can do to help, however small will make a difference and help to keep the area looking clean and tidy, having a positive impact on the community. One Parishioner that is noted for her ongoing efforts with litter picking is Pam Cole. Pam has worked hard and remained committed to picking litter in the village for almost 2 decades. This has had such a positive contribution to making Tidbury Green a cleaner and tidier place to live. The Parish Council invited Pam to our December 2015 meeting and in recognition for her ongoing efforts and commitment thanked her and presented her with some M&S vouchers. Once again Many Thanks Pam.
The Parish Council reviewed the consultation document and provided a detailed response. The completed questionnaire, letter and supporting documents can be found on this website.
Thank you to all parishioners who supported us and wrote to Solihull MBC with their views.
