Friday 26th April2024 – Cinema – Scrapper (12)
It’s said that it takes a village to raise a child, but 12-year-old Georgie (Lola Campbell) has other ideas. Living alone since her beloved mum died, Georgie fills the flat they shared with her own special magic. But when her absent father Jason (Harris Dickinson) turns up out of the blue, she’s forced to confront reality. A dreamy, witty and unmissable tale of family and fresh starts, SCRAPPER is a film that believes life’s not so much about chasing rainbows but snatching fistfuls in both hands..
Running time 83 mins, rated 12
Any changes to applicable guidelines will be communicated to attendees.

What is an Annual Parish Meeting?
A chance for the Parish Council to explain what it has been doing in the last 12 months and what’s planned for the next 12 months or so. Also it is an opportunity for representatives from local bodies and organisations to talk directly to residents and you, as a resident, to question what is going on in the village.
Who Can Attend?
Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend.
Will I be able to ask questions and make comments?
Yes. Not only will your views be welcomed but also it is precisely why the meeting is held. Raise anything you feel is important or needs saying.
Who will be there?
By law, the Parish Council Chairman will lead the meeting. Parish Councillors will be there plus your District and County Councillors, however, they are mainly there to listen and take note. The real purpose of the meeting is to enable you and other residents to have your say. Local clubs, societies, voluntary and statutory organisations will also provide representatives to speak about their work.
How long will the meeting last?
As long as is needed but usually no more than a couple of hours – but you can come and go as you see fit.
This is not ‘another boring meeting’ – unless nobody turns up!
So come along – meet others – raise matters important to you.
