All ages are reminded to drop in to the Flaxton Community Hall on Saturday 26th February between 11am and 3pm, for half an hour or so, to find out more about Village Plans and make sure your views and wishes are represented. This is your chance to come along and have your say on our roads, transport, environment, housing, community facilities and lots more besides.

Everyone welcome – the more people involved, the more comprehensive the Village Plan will be.

Walking in Yorkshire

Please see the following message from Walking in Yorkshire:

At this time of year we start to think about the mud drying up and getting out to walk in the beautiful English Countryside again, but where to find new and interesting walks?

Walking in Yorkshire https://www.walkinginengland.co.uk/yorkshire has hundreds of walks to download and print, free, it also has books of walks, details of all the walking groups in the county and much more. Whether you want to walk on your own or with a group all the information is there in one place.

John Harris (the custodian of the website) said ‘There is so much walking information on the web but it is difficult to find. Walking in Yorkshire (part of the Walking in England website) has brought it together in one place so whether you are walking from home, or away on holiday, you will be able to find a walk suitable for you’.

With walks from half a mile to twelve miles plus long, and a note of suitability for pushchairs and wheelchairs, everyone can find a walk to enjoy.
