Welcome to Vale Parish

With the summer stream and hedge cleaning and cutting period coming to an end, the Constables and Douzeniers have completed their inspections of the parish. From the reports coming in, most have heeded the request to be a good neighbour and to get the work done on time.

Do you know any charities, businesses or individuals who deserve greater recognition for what they do? The Guernsey Community Foundation’s annual Community Awards are returning to St James in November and are the best opportunity to celebrate all those who work tirelessly to raise money and embark on community projects for the benefit of others here in the Vale, across the Bailiwick and further afield.

A quick reminder that by the end of tomorrow, hedges and douits (streams) are required by law to be cut back/cleaned and then inspected by the various douzaines.

We asked the other day if parishioners had any nice pictures of the Vale that they wanted to share, and we've had a good response with some great images sent in.

A RECENT court case in which two fly-tippers received stiff fines for their littering has been welcomed by two Senior Constables.
