As the days grow longer and the sunshine starts to make a more regular appearance, it’s wonderful to see our local community buzzing with activity and good spirits. This month, we celebrate the simple joy of sharing time with one another.

Our villages are full of people who care for each other, and this shines through in our local coffee clubs and social gatherings which bring smiles, laughter, and friendships old and new. It’s these little gatherings that remind us how important it is to stay connected and look out for those around us.

Looking ahead, excitement is building for this summer’s Auckley Show, with plans well underway for what promises to be another fantastic community day. Keep your eyes peeled for updates.

And in June, we’ll have the honour of marking the 80th anniversary of VE Day with commemorative events planned in both Auckley and Finningley. It’s a poignant moment to remember those who sacrificed so much, while also celebrating the enduring spirit of our community .

Here’s to a month of kindness, connection, and things to look forward to!

The June issue deadline for adverts and content is Wednesday14h May 2025 due . The Arrow will be delivered by 1st June.

Best Wishes

Branton Coffee Club continues to provide a warm and fabulous welcome to everyone on Tuesday mornings at Kilham Hall, Branton. The wonderful committee members ensure a funfilled morning, offering a variety of activities including quizzes, bingo, raffles, and — of course — plenty of laughter, delicious cakes, tea and coffee.

The Coffee Club makes a real effort to ensure everyone feels special, and recently they had the joy of celebrating Vi’s 105th birthday!

Vi was showered with flowers, cards, chocolates, and a selection of delicious homemade cakes lovingly baked by her daughter, Anne. Another member, Shirley, also celebrated her birthday recently — many happy returns, Shirley!

I wonder — is there anyone local aged over 105? If so, we’d love to hear from you and help share and celebrate such monumental milestones. Please do get in touch!

Richard Langton’s Memorial

I was sent this lovely photograph of Richard Langton’s memorial at Auckley Park by local resident June Scott.

Brendan, Auckley’ Parish Council’s handyman has made a great job of clearing and tidying the memorial for everyone to enjoy.

Richard was a local resident who played for the Auckley Football team when he sadly passed away as a young man 25 years ago this October.

The memorial was arranged by Richard’s family, the Auckley Football team and Auckley Parish Council in memory of Richard who was a much loved member of our community. It’s lovely to see the memorial looking beautiful.
