We are holding a Community Carol Sing-In on Friday December 14th.
We do not have a firm time yet,
but we plan to meet up with the children from Seal School at around 5pm after
their School Christmas Fair. We will meet outside the 5 Bells and sing in the
village for probably about half an hour or so, then on to the church for mulled
wine, hot chocolate and mince pies. We hope many of you will be able to join us,
and please watch out for firmer timings over the next couple of
weeks.
In January and February, we intend to organise some Know Your
Neighbour meetings in various venues and different times to enable as many
people to come along as possible. The idea behind these meetings is for people
in this community to get to know each other better, and to remind ourselves of
what is going on in the village. If you would be interested in helping to
facilitate any of these meetings (you won't be alone!) please e mail Marion and let her know. Equally, if you would like to come along and represent a local
organisation and bring along any information, please just let Marion know.
Finally, our Village Volunteers project is very close to being
ready to roll out.....Watch this space!
Thank You All for your
support with Seal Know Your Neighbours!
A blog for the "Know Your Neighbours" group. Connecting people in Seal, near Sevenoaks in Kent.
What is "Know Your Neighbours"?
"Know Your Neighbours" is a grass-roots community group in Seal, near Sevenoaks in Kent. The group is made up of anyone in the village who wants to get involved - individuals, clubs and societies, businesses, church and schools, parish council,and many others.
We organise local events through the year - fetes, street parties, Christmas events etc. - and we hold social gatherings, just so that people can get to "know their neighbours". There's no "committee" - anyone who turns up for meetings is welcome to help in any way they are able.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE, OR BE ADDED TO THE EMAIL LIST, contact Marion Gilchrist , who coordinates the group, or Anne Le Bas, who maintains this blog.
This Blog will be archived from July 7 2024 following the retirement of Rev Anne Le Bas who has maintained it. Know Your Neighbours will continue however. Please email Marion if you would like to know more!

Childsbridge Lane Road Safety Campaign
A
group of local residents has organised a petition asking for measures to be
taken to make the stretch of road between Seal and Kemsing safer for motorist,
pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders.
They
are asking for the following ideas to be considered:
Reduce
the speed limit from 60mph to 40mph.
Create
a “priority to oncoming traffic layout at the Childsbridge Lane Railway Bridge.
Erect
barriers to protect a pedestrian walkway on the southbound side of the road to
make the crossing safe for non-vehicular road users.
If
you would like to sign the petition
you can find it online here.
