Churchyard and Fleld The PCC have responsibility for the upkeep and maintenance of Churchyard and F*ld. Previously the PCC used an outside contractor for the maintenance ofthe churchyard and field. however. due increases by the contractor and despite receiving altematsve tenders from alternative contractors this was deemed unviable due lo the current finances of the church. The church receives no outside assistance in this area. and all costs and expense are bome by the Parishioners of All Saints. 11 was therefore agreed that we would endeavour to take the maintenance of these areas invhouse. A working party of willing helpers has been PLrt together led by Andrew Rigby who will maintsin the churchyard and field going forward. Whilst this will not diminate costs ents'rely il wll dramati¢ally reduce the financial burden in this area on the Chh going fotward. Geoff Powell kindly as31s1ed with the cutting of the graveyard by btrrowng machinery. The PCC 8greed to purchase a number of rtems such as slrimmers, lawn mower, le8f blowers and a150 a container for the storage of these items- Planning Permission was sought for the sib'ng of the container and this was granted earty in 2023. Tony & Janet Foster kindly offed to purchase a ride on Mower in memory of their daughter which was greatly received in November 2022. This wll be of great help maintaining the graveyard and field in the year to come. Charity number 1127817 Page16
