PCSO Funding

A successful meeting was held between the Parishes of Edlesborough, Pitstone and Ivinghoe resulting in all three parishes ceasing funding for the PCSO from April 2007. Arrangements have been put in hand for the parishes to retain their PCSO plus additional Police Officers funded by Thames Valley Police.

Work was carried out over the Easter period to construct the new floor which has been three quarters funded by Grants from Awards for All (Lottery funding) and Aylesbury Vale District Council Grants for the Community and Voluntary Sector. The Memorial Hall is available for hire by organisations, groups and parishioners for meetings, social events, parties etc.
