Snigger for the Camera! (2)

SIZE still matters for vain, old Men

That was the first thing I heard about the proposed Hall for Hemingbrough Community Centre.  As it was spoken by a Member of Hemingbrough Parish Council, and most Councillors had pledged to fight for a Centre when seeking election, I thought he was talking about a Parish Council project. 

Wrong!

What do you think of when someone mentions a community hall for a village?

Hemingbrough Chapel Community Hall, Cliffe Village Institute, Osgodby Village Institute, Wressle Village Hall, Airmyn Memorial Hall ……    



The “State of the Art” Community/Leisure Centre for Hemingbrough maybe sited close to the village school, close to new houses on congested roads where “20 mph is Plenty” and close to a dangerous junction with the A63.  It is intended “to involve all residents in that area (Selby District Council Eastern CEF).

The Eastern CEF area consists of Barlby, Biggin, Cawood, Cliffe, Escrick, Hemingbrough, Kelfield, Lund, North Duffield, Osgodby, Riccall, Ryther, Skipwith, South Duffield, Stillingfleet, Thorganby, Wistow

Jan Strelczenie, Chairman of the Parish Council says ‘It’s nothing to do with us!’  It's time he got his finger out and started taking an interest.
