What Our Community Say
Please thank all of the people who helped with my Christmas Food Gift. It was lovely, and I can’t think what else you can put in it to make it any better. So, thank you. When my Mum moved into Greenmeadow in the 70s, she had a Christmas Gift Parcel from Haydon Wick Parish Council. It was potatoes, onions and other vegetables to make a meal. She was so thrilled that someone had thought of her. So, thank you again.
Working with the Parish Council has been an absolute pleasure.
Picking the winner for the Children’s Christmas Card Competition was the hardest because they were all brilliant!! After much deliberation I did finally manage to choose one. My favourite project was the bulb planting volunteering event with some of the grounds team, who were an absolute joy to work with. Thank you so much for asking me to join you.
We have been working with Haydon Wick Parish Council for the past six years where they have graciously provided us with two halls which we use for our church services and other events.
During this time, we have enjoyed a fantastic relationship and see first-hand their passion to serve the community through initiatives such as the Christmas Parcel Outreach, among others.
