We secured Public Liability Insurance today with Tennyson, who specialise is such things. The cost of £132 has been paid by Les & Linda Reohorn, [so that can be a donation to the fund!] and we have the required documentation. Cover is for 1 full year , for events up to 100 people and Cover is up to £5 million – so that should satisfy! This means that all volunteers are covered by insurance whilst they work on the boardwalk.
Volunteers who help with the boardwalk repairs will be paid in chocolate cake (and the satisfaction of doing something worthwhile) Thanks to Jodie for the cake! Karen Riggs has made a cake too.
The £140 of timber has arrived and Scott & Natalia Bailey of Ratford Farm Eggs have generously match funded the cost so we have almost £300 of timber to use on Saturday
A group of the boardwalk team walked the boardwalk today with Mr Thomas , the surveyor. Good news is the task at hand appears to be quite manageable – but , it was noticed that the part of the walk that isn’t closed is in dire need of some board maintenance and hedges cutback and tidy up – the benches can’t be used as the grass is so high – HCC have been informed!
