Fulking Calendar Project

Collage of Fulking imagesThe Village Hall Group would like to produce a calendar for 2017, as a fund-raiser for the village hall.

We are inviting people to take seasonal photographs of Fulking and nearby Downland views over the next 12 months or so… Ideally, we would like to have a photo reflecting each month of the year.

The images need to be digital so that they can be sent via email. The aim would be to get the calendar produced by next December, so get snapping now for autumn and winter photos!.

Please email the photos (with a title) to Chris Gildersleeve gilder6646@aol.com.

Fulking Village Action Plan Meeting

Fulking Village Action Plan 2014
The annual meeting of the Fulking Village Action Plan Group is to be held on Wednesday 12th August at 6:00pm in the Village Hall. As the plan is now established and is ticking along, it has been suggested that the group should be disbanded and responsibility for the plan handed over to the Parish Council. This way, the plan will still be active and the opportunity to update it will still be available to the community.

If you have any suggestions, thoughts or comments, please do come along to the meeting to discuss them.
