Laleston Gardening Club: The comprehens­ive risk assessment carried out by Sue Ford, (chairman) has identified that ventilatio­n needs to be improved in the main hall.

Consequent­ly the committee have decided that the three mock sash windows that are in the hall need to be replaced with three operationa­l sash windows that can be opened to ventilate the room.

Until this is done no full scale lectures or meetings can be arranged.

Sue has made considerab­le efforts to secure grant funding for this project, but has been thwarted at each stage of the applicatio­n process.

Consequent­ly the committee has decided the club will pay for the windows out of its own resources.

An order has been placed with a local joinery firm and it is hoped the ventilatio­n problem will be solved very soon.
