Please read the attached two letters by clicking on the link below…

LL Letter to Councils – Platinum Jubilee Weekend

LL Letter to Councils – Queen’s Green Canopy

Let us know what your views are on how we in our village of Ridlington can contribute to collectively celebrating this amazing milestone.

You may have read in the minutes of the last Parish Council meeting held on September 22nd that it was proposed that a committee, to be responsible for arranging the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, should be formed.

A flyer, for delivery to all households, asking for ideas and volunteers will be produced in due course. Rutland County Council will also be setting up a portal on their website, so this will help us all to keep up to date with what the County of Rutland is doing as they too are amassing ideas and suggestions.

The Parish Councillors would very much appreciate hearing from you. Thank you

Dave Johnson
Chairman
