The Lady Brook Spring project looks as though it may go ahead at the end of May / beginning of June. Senior Community Solutions officer Darren Rolfe is looking for volunteers to help with the fencing at that time prior to work starting on the spring proper on Saturday 7th June (dates are provisional).
Interested volunteers should contact me and I will keep them updated.

If you have always wanted to have a Hoverhawk HA-5 in your garage, then you could do worse than attend Shoreham Aerojumble at Shoreham Airport from 10:00am on Saturday 29th March, admission £4.50, children free.
If you can’t find an HA-5, then you may just have to settle for an original 5¼” floppy disk containing Flight Simulator for the Tandy TRS-80.
The Argus reports that workmen found a mortar buried on Clayton Hill. The Army blew it up yesterday. The A273 was closed and trains were delayed.
The Safer West Sussex Partnership is inviting residents, businesses and partner agencies from across West Sussex to participate in its survey on crime and disorder.
Each year the partnership conducts a comprehensive review, bringing together information from a range of sources to produce a picture of where crime is occurring, the types of crimes people are suffering from and what agencies and organisations are doing to deal with the issues.
Using this information the Partnership can identify which crimes and areas of work are priorities for the year which is then published in a County Community Safety Agreement.
To support this review the Partnership is seeking the views of people who live and work in West Sussex in order to steer the delivery of services underneath its priorities. We would like you to tell us which of our ten priorities are most important to you and how you would allocate resources if you were in charge of the budgets.
Help us to deliver better services for you and your communities by spending a few minutes filling in our online survey available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SWSP2014
Please feel free to forward this email onto any other parties you believe may be interested in helping us shape the way we serve our customers and communities.
The survey will run until the 11th April.
Please contact the Better Communities Team for more information: better.communities@westsussex.gov.uk
