VE Day 80th Celebrations

At the time of print, there are two planned events to celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE Day.  The original VE Day was on 8th May 1945 and marked the end of WW2 in Europe, after almost 6 long years of war. (The war finally ended exactly 6 years after it had begun, on 2nd Sept 1945, and is marked by VJ day).

BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY 5th May 12.30pm

Buffet Lunch in the Manor Arms garden, starting at 12.30pm.  Tickets are £12.50 per head and should be booked with Liz at the pub 01460 72901

THURSDAY 8th May 9pm

There will be a “Balloon Burn” at Perrott Park (opposite the churchyard).  Everyone is welcome. Please meet on the Village Green at 9pm where Pip and Angie will lead a  crowd to the event.

DEFIBRILLATOR TRAINING

NPPC has been offered an opportunity to join with Misterton PC for  automated external defibrillator (AED) training/awareness course at Misterton, on Saturday 12th April at 10am, and a second session at 11am, if required.

(Please note that this event clashes with the previously advertised Brunch in the Hoskyns Memorial Hall).

A previous session was held when our AED was first installed and was well received by those that attended. 

Anyone wishing to retake instruction is most welcome but new applications will be given priority.

It is worth knowing that our AED has been involved in several emergencies over the last few years, meaning that a basic understanding of how to use it is more important than most people think.  If required, it is most likely you would be helping to resuscitate a loved one, so a basic understanding is very useful.

The course will cover all aspects of resuscitation and the use of an AED.  For the uninitiated, AED’s talk the operator through every step and are programmed not to shock unless required.  However, it is important to know the basics of cardiac resuscitation, including the different techniques required for different age groups.

To apply, please add your name to the list at the Farm Shop or email details to the Parish Clerk at northppc@gmail.com stating your name and telephone number.
