We have had a site meeting with Highways with respect to Landers Lake, Lewannick and it is understood that work will commence shortly with respect to the flooding problems. The speed of traffic through Lewannick was brought to the attention of the Council by concerned residents. The problem is particularly serious at school collection and drop off times. We urge everyone to have consideration and care when driving through the village. There will be a further defibrillator training on Monday 20 April 7 - 9. Our next ordinary meeting is scheduled to take place on Wednesday 15 April. The meeting will be held at Lewannick Village Hall commencing at 20.00 hours. Members of the public are welcome to attend.

The idea was to create a sociable drop-in point for tea and a chat and a change of library books. Lewannick Village Hall would be willing to provide space, or at least one other Cornish micro library has been set up in a pub (subject to negotiation). I am certain we could raise the necessary funding via grants, but sadly, if we can't get more volunteers, we'll have to drop the idea, for now at least. If you are interested in helping please contact David Eno - 782352 or [email protected]. The Good Companions Our first trip will be on Wednesday 15th April to Exeter.
