Borwick Parish Meeting – 7th October 2025

The next Borwick Parish Meeting will take place on 7th October 2025 at 19:30. It will be held at Borwick Hall.

We have invited, and he’s accepted, Graham Dalton to the meeting and I think it will interest him to see what we have for communication within the Parish. Still no further news on speeds through the village but I might ask Graham Dalton which he considers more important – the administration difficulty of changing speed limits or the safety of Borwick villagers!

We are in the process of adopting the Telephone Kiosk on the green as BT have withdrawn the phone and merely going to lock the kiosk and leave it. Interestingly it’s a Grade 2 listed building but we now have permission from LCC to refurbish it provided the colour scheme remains the same as it was.

If you any Borwick residents have any items they would like to add to the meeting agenda, please inform us by emailing borwickparish@priesthutton.co.uk

Hoping you’re available.

“Help is Closer than you think”

There is a new online Lancaster District Digital Directory of Health & Wellbeing Services. Jenny Reddell, (Community Health Worker/Lancaster CVS Hub Link Worker) writes:

“Check out the Lancaster District Digital Directory of Services (https://directory.lancastercvs.org.uk)  managed by Lancaster District CVS. This website is designed to help you find things that are available in our community that will be good for your health and wellbeing.  

This website is for everyone to use; whether you are a local person looking for activities or services close to home; somebody whose job it is to help others find things that could offer support or help; a parent looking for support or activities for children or an older person looking for ways to meet new people and get out of the house.

Take a look around the site and get in touch if you have any problems using the site or want to give us some feedback about activities that are not listed and should be!”
