Standish Fun Dog Show at Ashfield Park. Was great to see the Park being used again by so many, brought back memories of Standish Carnival days.
Lots of lovely and very well behaved dogs, and of course their owners. I helped collect donations by the kissing gate at the bottom of the Park and had a laugh and chat with people coming and going. Organisers are giving the proceeds to local charities. The weather was kind to us everyone I spoke to had a lovely time.
Good to see the results of the questionnaire by Standish Voice and the opinions and views of so many Standish residents. Lots of work to be done but their aim is to listen to residents and work towards our Neighbourhood Plan.
DEFIBRILLATORS AND FIRST AID
Just back from giving a talk at Standish Women's Institute on Defibrillators and their use. Lovely to meet so many ladies who gave such positive comments to my talk. Great to see so many familiar faces and to make new friends too.
For ladies who would like to attend, meetings are usually held on the 2nd Thursday of each month (October meeting will be on 3rd Thursday of the month). Meetings start at 7pm and are held at Ashfield House.
North West Ambulance Service notified me that the Defibrillator at Aldi had been activated on a '999' call. Thankfully it was not used and the paramedics dealt with the incident. So glad we have these in Standish now.
Dont forget to book your place at the free First Aid session at Standish Library on Saturday 10am - or, if you cant make it, put your name down for the next one. Hope to see you soon.
