Ellingham Community Trust AGM was on 6th November at 7pm at Ellingham Village Hall, with tea and coffee from 6.45pm.

The AGM was attended by a good number of parishioners with a lively question and answer session. Ellingham Community Trust wishes to thank all parishioners who attended (as well as the Trustees for their hard work during the year).

Updates to Ellingham Community Trust Objectives were approved and are here.

This is to update you about Ellingham Community Trust’s Solid Fuel Scheme. If you have ordered hardwood you will have already received details about how to contact the supplier. Owing to harvest timings, the supplier will not be able to delivery any more deliveries until October at the earliest. 

For heat log applicants, these will be delivered in October/November. Further details will be provided closer to the point of delivery. 

Coal applicants will be sent details of the supplier by the end of September for you to order coal for this winter.   

For cash applicants, the cash will be paid into your specified account in November.  

If you have a change in circumstances, or know of neighbours who are moving in or out please get in touch using ellinghamcommunitytrust@gmail.com.

Hi, 

Parishioners who have ordered Hardwood from the Ellingham Community Trust Solid Fuel Scheme can order your wood directly from the supplier (Alastair Nixon a.nixon@farmline.com) for delivery at a time convenient to yourselves. The supplier Alastair Nixon is able to deliver 20 loads of logs now, and the further delivery amount after October (owing to harvest commitments).

Parishioners who have requested heatlogs, coal and cash will be contacted later in the year regarding delivery and payment.
