Mountfield Village Hall closed

As a result of the Corona virus the Mountfield Village Hall Committee have been left with little choice but to close the village hall until further notice.
Many of you have already contacted me and cancelled your bookings, however for those of you that have not please take this as your notice of cancellation. Hopefully we will be able to reopen later in the year, and I will contact you when we are in a position to do so. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards

Corona Virus update 1 (19.03.20)

Hello everyone, I hope you are staying well and listening to Government advice.  Please keep in touch with your neighbours and friends – phone, email, WhatsApp, Facebook etc.
I have had an offer from a very kind couple in Mountfield to help those in the Mountfield community who may need it.  Please contact me, by email or phone, and I’ll put you in contact with them.
If you would like to help, doing a little shopping, collecting medication etc., please contact me – 01424 838414 – clerk@mountfield.org.uk
Your details will not be published on line and deleted when the crisis is over.

I went to Tesco at Ravenside (Bexhill) today – a complete waste of time.  Empty shelves everywhere, no potatoes, fresh veg, eggs, milk, butter, frozen chips etc.
However, the Netherfield Stores and Post Office is its usual bright and friendly self, they have good stocks and very sensibly are limiting the amounts people can buy. Several kind locals have  offered to help them out with deliveries.  Click on the link below for details (they also make great coffee!)

Sussex Uncovered 3

In November, the Sussex Community Foundation published its report – Sussex Uncovered 3.
It is a data-fuelled report that looks at the needs and strengths of Sussex – East, West and Brighton and Hove.  A key finding is that homelessness has risen dramatically in parts of Sussex, with many more individuals and families on the edge of losing their homes.
