• Appeal to our Benefactor

    We will soon be in a position to seek further help in raising funds for the construction of the village hall on the recreation ground. To start the ball rolling we thought we would test-run our appeal.

    We are currently looking to raise £160,000 towards the hall. The village residents have so far raised £30,000. The parish council have pledged another £10,000 once the building work starts. We will be looking for providers of a capital building grant of £120,000.

    Do you think the following letter would do the trick? if not, could you join our team as a grant application researcher?

  • Defibrillator Demonstration

    Chris Oakes, the Parish Council Chair and local First Responder has set up a defibrillator demonstration session.

    The demonstration will take place at The Horse and Groom. The next session will be on THURSDAY evening of the 23rd August), at 7:30pm. If this session fills up, another session could be run. Note: This is a change from the evening initially advertised. As the trainer will be on first aid duty at Norwich football ground, on the Wednesday.

    Here is what it might look like

    Tunstead and Sco Ruston residents came together and very quickly raised sufficient funds for the purchase of a defibrillator which will be housed in the redundant telephone box opposite the primary school. The telephone box will soon be refurbished and made ready to receive the new machine.

    The device is simple to use, and it guides the user on what to do. Any member of the public is entitled to use the machine in the case when someone’s heart stops (cardiac arrest). However, to give you confidence in its use come along to the demonstration session, and see a training system in use. Chat with first aiders about its use. So when you leave the demonstration you will be clear on how and when its use will be the most effective.

    It will be helpful if you could let Chris know which session you will be attending. Please call him on 07909835514, or you could simply click the button below to register your interest. No forms to fill in online.

    So press a button or call Chris – 07909 835514.
