With lockdown restrictions continuing to lift, you will recall from previous e-newsletters that the Parish Council planned to end its medication collection and delivery service on Friday 31 July.

Due to the availability of Councillors this week we have brought forward this date.  The last day of this service is now Wednesday 29 July 2020.

Going forward, if you are self-isolating and cannot arrange the collection of your medication through friends and family please contact the surgery directly to discuss how they can help.

Based on the most recent Government guidance regarding the re-opening of Village and Community Halls post COVID-19 Closure, Tysoe Village Hall Committee regret to advise all users and hirers that the Village Hall will remain closed until further notice.

Information Sheet Issue 3 – 6^th July 2020 received from ACRE (ACTION WITH COMMUNITIES IN RURAL ENGLAND), states that Village and Community Halls are not permitted to re-open for Group 3 Indoor Sports and Exercise Classes (Carpet Bowls, Dance Classes, Indoor Gentle Fitness Classes, including Yoga and Pilates) from 4^th July 2020, awaiting further Government guidance.

This closure also extends to ALL public events.

Entrance to any area of the Village Hall is with the express consent of Percy Sewell (Chairman) and/or Steve Randall (Secretary/Caretaker).

Thank you for your continued understanding.

Recent planning decisions relating to property and land in the village.

Dear people of Tysoe,

If you know or have a child/children [including teenagers!] then please read on …. if not you can still read this. It has come to our attention that people are not that happy! So, if you care about our community then make Easter messages/letters/pictures please.

Please put them in one of the post boxes we have made at 2 Windmill Way or Thyme Cottage, Back Lane by Thursday 9^th April. We will scan your messages and pictures and make an Easter booklet and deliver them to an elderly person/someone self-isolating in time for Easter Sunday.

Just write a positive sentence or more. Consider this as homework [but you do NOT have to do this we are not forcing you 😊]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

From Erin Small and Erin Ellis

PS Here are some Easter ideas for what you could make and some Easter Egg Templates if you are stuck.

A severe cold weather alert has been issued by the Met Office for rain turning to snow early hours of Thursday morning (27 February), with accumulations mainly above 200m. This should clear by late morning. It is unclear whether or not this will disrupt the delivery of services/disrupt travel significantly in Coventry and Warwickshire, but Warwickshire County Council thought it wise to alert residents. This is particularly important if you are supporting vulnerable people (older people, the very young, or people with long-term conditions) whose health can be affected by even short periods of colder weather.
