What a year it’s been! We are not out of the woods yet, but things will get better in time. We’d like to thank everyone who has been helping our community get through the year.

In the meantime, we’ll tak a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne.

We wish you all a Happy and Healthy New Year!

A child’s drone was lost in Slingsby on Boxing Day. It was last seen flying north from the gardens of the Hall in Railway Street. It seems its young owner has yet to earn his wings! If you have seen it, please contact Cynthia Fell on 01653 627283. Her grandson will be very grateful.

A couple of days ago we reunited a young lad and his new smart watch, but this could be more challenging, as the drone could be in a tree, on a roof, behind an outbuilding…..
