We understand the concerns expressed by some residents about the homeless gentleman currently in our village. The Parish Council is aware of the situation and wants to address your concerns directly.

🔹 What We Know:

– The gentleman is not on Parish Council land, which limits our ability to intervene directly.

While we may not have the power to move him on, we are committed to working with WNC Housing and the Police to ensure that he receives the necessary support and assistance.

Homelessness is a complex issue that requires empathy and understanding. We encourage all residents to approach this situation with kindness and support. Let’s come together as a community to offer help where we can and foster a spirit of inclusivity.
