Tuesday evening saw the return of the Annual Parish Assembly meeting, the first to be held since Covid and the first time the event has been held at at Boorley Green Community Centre.

We would like to thank our keynote speaker Donna Jones – Police Commissioner Hampshire & IOW for attending and giving us an update on local policing and for answering the questions posed by local residents. It was also great to see our local Bobby, Will and PCSO Steve in attendance.

Thanks also to the community groups who came along Botley Neighbourcare, Youth Options, Community First and Vickie the Public art officer from Eastleigh Borough Council, also to Jamie our lead Youth Club volunteer and Cllr Gurd for the updates you provided on the work you have been doing.

More thanks to the Chair of the Council, Cllr Cooper for hosting and Cllr Simcock for being in charge of the microphone during question time and to the other members of the Council who came along to support and answer questions.

Also thankyou to our Ops Manager, Matthew, and Bookings Clerk Wendy for the time they spent setting up and making sure everyone was looked after with drinks and refreshments.
