Christingle Service

I am sure all those eagle eyed people noticed the deliberate mistake in the Poynings News.

The Church Christingle service is 3.30 as usual not 6.30.

Safer West Sussex Partnership

The Safer West Sussex Partnership annual survey is now available on the County Council web pages. The survey has been devised by the Better Communities Team on behalf of the partnership and is an important barometer of resident views on crime & disorder.

The Safer West Sussex Partnership (SWSP) is a multi-agency group that provides a countywide co-ordinated approach in delivering effective responses to crime and anti-social behaviour across West Sussex. We work with our district and borough community safety partnerships and a range of agencies to ensure that West Sussex remains a safe place for residents and visitors alike.

Following the completion of our annual strategic intelligence assessment the partnership has agreed a number of priorities that it will work to in the period 2014 – 2017, and we are seeking your views on which activity and initiatives you consider to be most important to help us deliver against those priorities.

Come Dine with Me

It’s here! Poynings style ‘Come Dine with Me’.

 I’m organising a fund raiser for the annual Ye Olde Villagers Christmas Dinner and thought it would be a bit of fun to do a ‘Come Dine With Me’ style event like the channel 4 series.

Here’s how it goes……

 

4 couples/pairs (possibly 3 couples/pairs?? what do you think?) each to host an evening of a 3 course dinner and each couple/pair at that evening giving a score for their host, so 4 dinner parties in all.

Groups will be drawn randomly. Each group can decide on the dates of which they will host the dinner parties in October.

The cost is £20 entry per couple, prize money of £200 (£100 kindly donated by the Royal Oak, Poynings) will go to the lucky winning couple!

Scoring will be marks out of 10 and the couple/pair with most points wins £200. If there is a tie on the scoring then the winning couple/pair will be drawn. This is not just open to Poynings, so if you have any friends in local villages, let them know too. Prize giving will be at the grand finale evening at The Royal Oak on Thursday 30th October.

If you are a kitchen whizz, dinner party queen or just want to have a good fun evening then let me know and I’ll send you the finer details!
