It is summer, the sun is shining as I write and this month I would like to focus on the positive news from Cornwall Council. It is so easy always to talk about the problems and things that aren’t going so well but actually there is a lot of good work going on too.

South Hill Neighbourhood Plan
The development team are working towards drawing up a vision of how we would all like our area to be in 20 years time.
- What we should preserve?
- what changes could we accept?
- and what is needed to make it a better place to live and work?
Very soon we will be seeking your opinions by way of a parish-wide survey, and by a community get together event in the Parish Hall, where everyone can have some fun, and also share their views about our neighbourhood. Watch this space !!
For more information, or to give us your own ideas, send an email to neighbourhoodplan@south-hill.co.uk
South Hill Man swings a club for Help for Heroes
Congratulations to Pete Tunnicliffe for his efforts in raising money for the ‘Help for Heroes’ charity.
Last month Pete organised a golf tournament at Dainton Park golf club, at Ipplepen in Devon, for fellow meteorologists and hydrographers. In total, they raised nearly one thousand pounds for the charity, which helps Servicemen and women wounded in current conflicts.
Well done to everybody who took part.

South Hill WI June/July 2014
JUNE 2014
Our June Meeting we were treated to a talk with a slide show, from Michael Pettijohn showing us his time abroad, working as a Vet for MAFF. In his spare time, he captured on camera the way the African folk lived and how they’ve got very different ways that they live.
Dog Days In The Garden
Summer is well underway with plenty of sunshine and just a little rain. The Gunnera has grown huge leaves this year; I expect all that winter rain we had has helped. My roses have done really well this year, probably because of the manure and the bark mulch that was put round them early this spring.
Footpath Walk – Wagmuggle to Browda
(third in our series on local footpaths)
The footpath starts on the public road at Wagmuggle just past the cottage which is on the road from Kerney Bridge towards Mornick. There is a sign on the left hand side of the road. The path goes down a short incline and then crosses a stream by means of a granite footbridge, which as shown in the winter can be quite swollen so you need to be steady on your feet if you are to avoid a soaking.
Church Matters August 2014
So we approach the holiday season when, hopefully, we’ll have the opportunity to take our foot off the gas a little and step back from the usual things of our lives. Whether the “usual things” are a full time job coupled with the struggle to maintain a balanced home/family life, or perhaps being home based looking after children, or perhaps dealing with the (busy?) schedule of retirement, or something in between all these scenarios, it’s always good to have a change in routine – a time when you can give space to something different. Sometimes you find the space achieved – getting off the treadmill – allows you to reflect on life in general, and maybe come to some conclusions about the things that are good, and not so good, in our lives. The space to think might lead you to embark upon a change for the future – it can be both a creative and risky process!
