Lindfield Parish Council newsletter - April 2022

Message from the Chairman

I am sure that you will all have been deeply moved by the situation in Ukraine. More than a million people have fled their homes to escape the conflict. Having left behind jobs, belongings and loved ones, they now face an uncertain future. The Disasters Emergency Committee brings together 15 leading UK aid charities, raising funds to respond to overseas disasters quickly and effectively. By donating to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, you’ll help DEC charities provide food, water, shelter and healthcare to refugees and displaced families. The UK Government will match donations from the public pound-for-pound up to £20 million, meaning your support will go even further. You can donate to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal using the following methods: Online: www.donation.dec.org.uk Tel: 0370 60 60 900 (standard geographic charges from landlines and mobiles apply).

Lindfield Parish Council Newsletter - March 2022

We have recently been informed that MSDC intend to conduct a Community Governance Review (CGR) of their ward boundaries that will also impact upon current parish council boundaries.

It is proposed that some roads will be transferred from Lindfield Rural Parish Council to Haywards Heath Town Council. We understand that the proposals are to remove the roads listed below from the Lindfield Rural Parish Council area and to put them within the Haywards Heath Town Council area.

The Hollow
The Platt
Kiln Lane
The Rise
The Copse
Knoll Place

The proposal will shortly be put out for public consultation and comment by MSDC and will also be discussed at our Lindfield Rural Parish Council meeting on the 28th February.

Chairman’s Update
By Trevor Webster, Chairman of LRPC

Lindfield Burial Ground new ashes scattering memorial ground
The council currently owns a plot of land next to the Walstead Burial Ground in East Mascalls Lane and it is our aim to convert it into an ashes scattering memorial ground. This facility would be in addition to the ancient burial site and the ashes internment ground that we already offer at the Walstead Burial Ground. Our early thoughts are that we would like to see the new ground sympathetically landscaped with trees and shrubs to allow residents and visitors to apply to scatter the ashes of departed loved ones and to revisit as often as they wish in a peaceful environment. To enable us to apply for planning permission a professionally produced plan of the ground needs to be produced and submitted with our application. The council is currently hoping to work with a voluntary landscaper who would be able to contribute to this process. If you are interested and can help, please contact our Parish Clerk on clerk@ lindfieldrural-pc.org.uk
