Welcome to Vale Parish

Details of the celebrations for this year's Liberation Day have been released, along with the Vale's own plans. This year, the parish is marking the anniversary with a special tea party for its older residents, which will be held at the Vale Douzaine Room.

Details of the next meeting of the Vale Moorings Committees has been published and it invites all boat owners with registered moorings at Bordeaux, Les Amarreurs, Chouet, and Rousse to attend.

A Vale road that was closed without warning nearly a year ago is finally set to reopen. Guernsey Water announced yesterday that work is to start stablising a quarry bordering the lane, which led to the closure.

Users of L'Ancresse are being warned that work has started – subject to tides – on the rock armouring that protects the former anti-tank wall at the popular bay.

Vale residents are being asked to make sure they recycle things in the proper bags – especially glass. The reminder comes after Recycling for Guernsey has noticed that some households are leaving bottles and jars for collection in plastic bags.
