Link Schemes are voluntary groups which offer a transport and good neighbour service to local people who are in need, perhaps because they are elderly, disabled, isolated and lonely, single parents, or perhaps temporarily in need because of illness. They operate as small, independent charitable organisations and all volunteers use their own private vehicles. (Insurance and DBS checks are carried out).To give you an idea of the level of support The Link Schemes offer – last year they made 31,351 health related journeys and completed 48,027 good neighbour tasks which incorporate collecting prescription’s and shopping.
If you could spare some time, or for more information please contact as on 01380 722241.

Save the dates! The BARTS Festival has been re-scheduled for 16/17/18 July 2021 – further details can be found on the BARTS Website.
A fun challenge for families and walkers to get to know the beautiful surroundings of Sutton Benger by walking local footpaths and identifying local landmarks. It is hoped children (and the rest of us) might become more confident using an Ordnance Survey map.
All the walks are less than 2-3 miles. Some may be overgrown – you will need walking boots/trainers or wellies and probably best to have legs covered to protect from nettles. (Please report to the Parish Council if you have any particular issues accessing the paths)
The footpaths cross privately owned land, so please stay on marked paths.
Full details and the Walk Benger Challenge Pack can be found here.

The central access cabinet for Sutton Benger Community has now been activated meaning some of those properties that have been built to will now be able to order service and make use of the ultrafast broadband speeds. It is worth mentioning this was brought forward by several months, given the quick and good progress the teams have made.
Not all connections are immediately ready with the main cabinet being activated, as works continue over the coming weeks and months to finalise the outstanding sections of build, and activate those connections that have been built. I have attached the latest programme of works for your reference.
The best way for residents to find out if there connection is live, is to register on their website gigaclear.com. You will then receive an email or phone call from their teams when their connection is ready.
Or keep an eye out for the post in the coming weeks as mailers will also be arriving.
