All residents of the three villages are invited to attend, meet their MP - Nick Hawkins - and Local Councillors to put their questions and concerns in an Open Forum.

In view of the rumours circulating about the army in our area, perhaps you have concerns regarding the future of our three villages? Other topics of interest are: the youth centre in Wharf Road, Frimley Green, and the current situation at ‘Charnwood’, Windmill Lane, Frimley Green, the circus in Deepcut.

Our Guest Speaker at the October 2003 meeting was Mike Abbot, SCC Local Director - Surrey Heath. Subjects discussed/questions from Members covered such subjects as: policing, as it affects our area, including social behaviour, traffic, police and crime prevention and public meetings. Closure of Mytchett Post Office; the future of Post Offices in the area. Public transport, which is subsidized by £7m. by SCC (but we still have no buses on Sundays and our last bus is in the early evening!).

Peter Neil, the Chairman of Deepcut Village Community Centre at Dettingen Park, Deepcut, talked about the new centre which will be open for hire by individuals and groups. This was followed by a Members’ Forum - the chance to put your questions to your MP, Local and County Councillors.

This is just a flavour of the last meeting; if you have any questions or concerns please come and put them at our next meeting.

The Society has a remit to try to enhance the environment of the three villages and, to that end, we work closely with the Police and the Local and County Councils to encourage them to look at the area as a whole and to consider schools, doctors, the hospital and local roads in their initiatives and not rush to fill every green space with new houses.

Thank you for supporting the Society .. .. .. The more members we have, the more influence we have!

May we remind you that Subscriptions are now due for renewal. It is just £1.00 per year per household. If you are not attending the meeting will you please drop your subscription into a committee member.
