WOW - Warton’s Outrageous Wingding event organised by Warton Village Hall on a sunny Spring Sunday (remember them?!) really was a “Wow” - Warton, you raised an astonishing £1,000 towards the new playground at The Roods!  On top of this the Roods committee raised a fantastic £320 on their stall.  Members of the two organising committees met this week to present and accept the cheque.

Heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to and participated in this really lovely village event.

Village residents will be pleased to hear that the Parish Council have now raised the issue of speeding vehicles and reckless driving through the village with the Area Traffic Management Officer, Police  Headquarters Operations and the person who recently instigated traffic speed monitoring procedures in the village.  As a result of that monitoring it has been confirmed that there is a problem with speeding traffic through the village. The local Neighbourhood Policing Team have now been formally tasked to undertake formal speed enforcement action. No date for such action has yet been decided, as this will be dependent on competing demands as well as resources availability. Hopefully, irresponsible drivers will now be identified and appropriate action taken to deter future problems. The Parish Council in the meantime will be monitoring the situation closely.
