In order that this TPO is confirmed, we are asking you to contact Legal Services for Wealden and Rother District Councils with letters of support.  This must be done by 22nd August 2022.
These letters of support must be made in writing and posted to:
Wealden and Rother District Councils
Joint Legal Service
Town Hall
Bexhill-on-Sea
East Sussex TN39 3JX

It is vital that as many letters of support are received as it is entirely possible that the landowner may object/appeal the TPO.

Letters of support have been sent by Doug Edworthy (Dallington Tree Warden), who has done sterling work on this and Dallington Parish Council, you can see these on the link below.
Please contact me if you need any more information.

Summer 2022 – serious risk of fires

You will have all seen the tragic images of the recent fires in the UK, caused by very dry and hot weather.
This year, we in Dallington, have let our verges, triangles etc., remain uncut much longer to enable wild flowers to seed and we have a great deal of VERY dry grass during this hot weather.
Please remember and take extra care with:

  • Barbeques
  • Garden fires
  • Check your compost heaps (they can self-ignite)
  • Move your mirrors/glass in line with the sun through your windows
  • Cigarettes thrown from cars are an incredible fire risk at the moment

Please bear the above in mind and anyone working for you that the village of Dallington is now like a tinderbox and will probably be like this all Summer.

Please do take care.

The Federation of Astronomical Societies (FAS) has let us know about this new YouTube Astro Show:
Space Oddities is a weekly live panel show featuring an international panel of experts and enthusiasts that streams to YouTube at 8pm UK time on Monday evenings.  The panel is made up of people who were regular members of Astro Radio’s Reach Out and Touch Space show.
Now that Astro Radio is off air, we have created this new show which covers space and astronomy news, upcoming astronomical events and much more.  Our panel has a diverse range of specialist areas, so if you have a question, you can post it in the live chat during the show.

Sounds very interesting, especially with all the excitement created by the fabulous images from the James Webb telescope.
