Axminster Election Hustings

A message from the Clerk of Axminster Town Council

Dear fellow Clerks

The Town Council is not organising the hustings next week but has made The Guildhall available to all 7 candidates for a hustings event as a community interest amenity.
This will be chaired by Matt Smith, Director of the Community Waffle House here in Axminster.

I attach a poster for the event which you may wish to use on your website, social media, or noticeboards to encourage your parishioners to come along if they wish to.

We don’t believe there are any other events in the Axe Valley organised for prior to the 4th July – if there are any in your parishes, please let me know and I can get those publicised locally here too.

Kindest regards

Paul Hayward
Town Clerk
Axminster Town Council

Tree Planting in the Cricket Field – Saturday 16th March, 2024

Not strictly Parish Council Business… but we thought this was worthy of posting here.

A rather dull day weather-wise for the tree planting to commemorate our former Chairman, Alistair Forbes, 10 years of service to the Parish Council, but at least the rain stayed away.

A very dapper Alistair arrived to oversee the proceedings, the hole was dug, the tree planted and Alistair put in the first shovel of soil, job done! The event was attended by All Saints Parish councillors and residents, along with a few doggie friends, who wanted to help with the digging.  Then it was back to the Pavilion for hot drinks, biscuits and some socialising.

Cllr Gary Hall (Chairman), thanked Alistair for his long service and presented him with a bottle of whisky and a bunch of flowers for his wife Mary.  We look forward to seeing the two trees we have planted, a Silver Birch and a Mountain Ash (Rowan), thrive and provide enjoyment for all the residents of All Saints Parish. 

Commemorative plaques will be added in due course.
