It is important that we do all we can to help those in our communities that are likely to become more isolated as measures are put in place to delay the spread of Covid-19. There are some simple but effective things we can all do to help:
- Making sure they have enough food and other general supplies to cover a few days - there is no need to panic buy though
- Walking their dog, picking up a prescription, putting out their bins or taking in a parcel
- Phoning, Skyping or Facetime them so they can see a friendly face, helping to reduce their isolation
- Sharing child care or other caring responsibilities
- Checking if any of their planned appointments have been cancelled before they travel

The monthly country dancing sessions at
Apperley Village Hall are not taking place during the Covid pandemic. Usually there are about 20 at each, but still room for a few more! The classes are usually held on the 4th Thursday of the month, from 2 - 4pm. There will be an expert caller to teach and call the dances, so do please come along, you will be made very welcome. The cost of each session is still only £3.00 each, children free. You do not need to book, just turn up, on your own or with a friend. The cost includes squash, tea & coffee and even biscuits! |
You do not need to be an expert, and there is live music from members of the Amazing Matchless Band and guests. For further details e-mail me (astrid@astridsart.com) or telephone 01452 780401 You can see a barn dancing class in action on this You Tube video! http://youtu.be/SPxQ8HgkMoM |
Heritage Apple Trail
The Heritage Apple Trail runs from Deerhurst Priory to Cooks Green, Lower

next to footpaths. It is hoped to make a trail leaflet available in the future
and the trees will all be clearly labelled. To find out more about the
heritage apple trail and the varieties please visit www.apperleydeerhursthistory.co.uk
