VILLAGE HARVEST CHARITY CONCERT SAT 8TH OCT
A rare opportunity to be transported back in time will take place at All Saints Church, Minstead on Saturday 8th October at 7pm.
‘A Village Harvest’ will be staged by The Madding Crowd, a local group established in 1975, who research and perform in costume, songs, hymns, dances and poems collected from C17th-C19th village manuscripts and books.
The concert blends music and words to create the atmosphere of the old church bands. The music is often sung in wonderful four part harmony, and is close to traditional or folk music. It promises to be a lively, amusing and informative evening.
The event is being held to raise funds for Minstead Training Trust’s 30th anniversary appeal. Established in 1986, the Trust works with over 150 people with learning disabilities, providing practical training in life skills, work-based skills and health and wellbeing from its base in Minstead, nr Lyndhurst.
MINSTEAD LODGE WEDDING SHOWCASE
It is proposed that Minstead Lodge is used as a new marquee venue for weddings, parties and other celebrations. There will be a Wedding Showcase on Sunday 9th October from 11am – 3pm.
Entry is free.

COMMUNITY ALARM LAUNCHES NEW SERVICE
NFDC’s community alarm service, “Appletree Careline” has launched a new wristband which quickly gets help to an individual.
The silicone band has a unique ID number on it and an emergency telephone number for Appletree careline who are on the end of the phone 24/7. Should someone need help Careline staff can quickly alert the individual’s relatives or contacts who are registered as part of the wristband service set-up.
As an introductory offer current Appletree Careline community alarm customers who sign up for the wristband service before 31st October 2016 will get 6 months free. New customers taking up both services will not pay an installation or administration fee, saving £30.
The wristband service costs 45p a week (£24 annually) with a £10 registration for new customers.
