Metheringham village notice boards

Many of you will know there are two notice boards in Metheringham, supplied by the Parish Council.

The Parish Council notice board is situated in the War Memorial garden, and all formal Parish Council notices are displayed here. If the Parish Council is advertising for paid positions in the village or for an event organised by them, then the notices may also appear in the notice board by the Post Office.

The Village notice board, situated by the Post Office, is for notices and posters for local voluntary groups. Metheringham based groups are given priority but if space permits then notices from Blankney, Dunston, Martin, Nocton and Scopwick will be considered. A voluntary group is one that is purely run by volunteers with perhaps a few paid staff, but there are also voluntary groups who charge a fee to cover the running costs of that group. Businesses are not able to advertise in either notice board.

If advertising a specific event the notice will stay in place until the event has taken place, but if advertising an ongoing concern these will be in position for one month. When this time has elapsed the poster or notice will be removed and if the group wish to re-advertise they will need to produce a new poster or notice.

Please do not affix posters to the glass doors of the notice board, as they will be removed without any consultation.

In future it is hoped to have a notice board outside the Village Hall which will only be to advertise events happening at the hall.

Please contact me on 01526 320968 if you wish to place a poster or notice in the board, or if you would like any further information.
