Hutton Conyers defibrillator
The council is pleased to announce that the awaited defibrillator for Hutton Conyers is now installed, registered and active. It can be found on the outside wall of Hillside and we are grateful to Tim and Sarah for ‘hosting’ it. The defibrillator is installed in a locked cabinet and access is obtained by calling 999. It can be used with no prior knowledge but please can everyone in the village watch the video which can be found in the useful links section on the home page, thank you.

We now have the go-ahead to co-opt another councillor for the parish, please see the notice on the noticeboards. An application form can be downloaded below and applications need to be returned to the clerk by April 24th for consideration at the May meeting.
