Litter picking  Hatley Parish Council has organised a litter pick on Sunday, 21 March, starting at 10.00 am, to collect the litter spoiling the verges along the roadside from the clump opposite the Gransden Hill turn, to beyond Parkers Farm.  This is a big task, so PLEASE come and help – it doesn't take long. Meet at 10.00 am outside the village hall – and please wear good gardening gloves and wellies etc. Further information on the Parish Council news page.

You can deposit used household batteries in boxes on the County's mobile libraries.

Postal voting – on 6 May there will be elections for South Cambridgeshire District Council (Bridget Smith, one of our Gamlingay councillors is 'up' for re-election) and possibly on the same day – and certainly by 3 June – we shall be having a general election.  If you would like a postal vote, we've added a section to our Elections page giving you details of how to apply.
