I have recently taken on the guardianship of the village defibrillator and thought it would be a good time to remind villagers about the device.
Location - the defibrillator is located on the external wall of the village hall (next to the car park and emergency exit).
To access the device you will need to dial 999. They will then ask you for the cabinet number – 2334 and/or postcode of the device - IP23 8LX
These numbers are also on the outside of the defibrillator.
This information will be enable the 999 service to locate our defibrillator and give you the access code to allow you to get access to the device.
The defibrillator is portable and so can be taken to wherever it is needed in the village. 999 will talk you through how to use it and once it is switched on the device will also give you verbal and visual instructions.
No training is necessary to use the defibrillator but it would be useful if some villages have some training. I have contacted someone locally who can provide training for the defibrillator together with some resuscitation training. The cost of the training will be covered by the Parish Council and there are 10 places available for people who live in the village. The training takes about 2 hours and will include the use of a Resus Doll and training defibrillators.
If you are interested, please can you contact me as soon as possible. I can then organise a suitable date and time for the training.
If you have any queries regarding the defibrillator, please contact me. If I don’t know the answer, I will endeavour to find someone who does!

Village FeteThank you to everyone who supported the Fete. Despite the rain it was lovely to see all the village come together and to get back to some normality after the last few years. All those who helped by setting up, running a stall, donating and coming along, you all helped make the fete a success and we are very grateful to all of you ( also a special thank you to my rescuers when the Finningham Gazebo was blown into the middle of the road!). Looking forward to doing it all again next year. Katie, Jos and Mark |

TO THE WONDERFUL RESIDENTS OF WICKHAM SKEITH, PLEASE CAN YOU HELP?
As most of you are aware, we currently have 3 Ukrainian families living in our village. Lack of public transport is proving to be a challenge to enable them to become self-sufficient, attend appointments, go shopping and get jobs.
I am currently Crowd Funding, with marginal success, to gather funds to assist Hanna, my guest, and her son Zachar to purchase a car and pay for Motor Insurance, Car tax and a warranty. So far, she has £1900 of her own capital and the monies I have raised of nearly £700 through crowd funding. I am trying to get to a target of £2500 to avoid an unreliable old banger! I will also be approaching local garages to see if we can exchange positive PR, a wonderful photo opportunity for a “cracking deal” on a reliable car. Should any of you have connections or advice please do not hesitate to contact me.
The link to donate via crowdfunding is below, type it into your Google or Safari search bar and it will automatically take you to the page, it can be done anonymously should you wish….
At the end of Hanna’s stay, if she decides to relocate back to her Mother country Ukraine, she will sell the car and buy a left-hand drive vehicle with the proceeds. She has never been in the position before to own a car. Any help will be very gratefully received.
Thank you in advance for your help and if you have any queries, please do not hesitate to ask me, Sam, at Knoll Farm, 077424 50908 or 01449 768620
