PARISH PLAN 2026
We are looking for people to offer up a small amount of their time who, over the
next nine months or so, can apply their sense of vision and enquiring nature to
help put together a new Parish Plan for Litton Cheney. It comes down to what
residents of Litton Cheney would like their village to become over the next ten to
twenty years, and what needs to be put in place in order for that to happen.
The first thing we need to do is put together a steering group of independent
minds – it will work outside of the Parish Council - who will put together an
initial village survey asking residents to indicate their thoughts and hopes. This
is not another shot at deciding if more housing is required in Litton and of what
type, although it will have a part to play.
Please, take a look at the 2005 Parish Plan, here, which hopefully will give you a
clearer picture of what needs to be achieved.
If you believe this is something you can assist with, please contact a member of
the Parish Council (details here). Without your involvement, this is going
nowhere. It’s time to stand up and make a difference.
ASSISTANCE REQUIRED
This year the Parish Council are proposing to make changes
in the village playground. Investigations have shown us that
the removal of the existing equipment to be replaced is a
large proportion of the cost. As a result, I am looking to
create a list of people willing to volunteer their services that
can be called upon when and if the situation becomes a
reality. Having to pay the contractors to ‘make good’ the
areas would most likely place the project over budget.
Please reply to andrew.king@littoncheney.org.uk if you are
to put your name forward. I will be putting the results to the
PC next Tuesday. Your assistance would be gratefully
received. THANK YOU.
For your information, the equipment to be replaced are two
parts of the “galleon” (bow and midship climbing apparatus).

A BIG “THANK YOU”
Many thanks to all who assisted in the village litter pick over the last 10 days. As usual the
pickings were greater on the approaches to the village, rather than within, but as we enter a
time of what we hope is an improvement in the weather we know we are relatively litter free
thanks to your wombling.
We do hold a stock of litter pickers and bags should you occasionally feel the urge to "go on a
pick", and I am aware that several of you have purchased their own kit such is your addiction to
picking. Thank you again. We have to live in hope that those who visit our village and valley
over the coming months will have the brain and the decency to take their litter home, or place it
in the appropriate receptacle.
