Last night's 'Meet The Candidates' do at the Wellow Institute was enjoyed by all and useful. We had a small turnout, it has to be said, but everyone who came seemed to feel it was worth coming and most stayed chatting until after we were supposed to get the keys back.
All of the candidates except Mike Carr were present; I believe Mike was on vacation. Helena Hewston was the only sitting member of the Parish Council who came but she made up for the absence of the others by 'interviewing' each candidate 1:1. Thank you, Helena. Stuart Hutchinson, our Ward Councillor, was present the whole time. Thank you, Stuart. Valerie Ching, who covers Shalfleet for County Press's 'Village Talk' also came and stayed. Thank you, Valerie.
Because of the small numbers, the candidates decided not to arrange the chairs as a formal talk but instead we all mingled, with tea, coffee and biscuits.
For those who came, a big thank you from the candidates for coming along!
