Our little black and white cat Loki hasn’t been home since Sunday evening. He has been known to disappear for 24 hours before now, but this is the first time he’s been gone for this long and we’re starting to worry. Would you mind checking garages, sheds or out-houses to see if he’s trapped? If anyone spots him please let me know.

Today 16th October is UK Restart a Heart Day.
More than 30,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen every year in the UK, with sadly less than 1 in 10 surviving.
Welbury Parish Council is hosting an introduction to defibrillator use (1 sited outside the pub) and CPR skills in Welbury Village Hall on Wednesday 13th November at 7.30pm.
Early CPR and defibrillation can more than double the chances of survival, which is why it’s so crucial to learn.
Please just turn up on the night and give up 30 minutes of your time, you never know it could save someone’s life.
