LOCAL NEWS: NEW YEAR, NEW COVERS, NEW EDITION ! This year there a number of new advertisers most of whom are for local businesses: mower servicing, plumber, electrician, kitchen design and installation, home cleaning and general maintenance, all of whom have already worked for satisfied customers in our community. We are grateful to the many long term advertisers who have continued their much valued support.
LOCAL NEWS: DAWN MAY SAYS THANKS! A card has been received from Dawn May with much appreciation for our gift of the Post Office Gift Voucher for her time as Local News Editor. Dawn plans to buy fruit trees that she says each year will remind her of her time with our community and the many friends she made. What a lovely idea and thought. Thank you Dawn.

Even though Village Halls Week is over, please encourage anyone you know to come and view our beautiful hall, we’ll be delighted to show them around.

BROAD HINTON KIDS CLUB
We are a friendly group of mums and dads who get together at Broad Hinton Village Hall on the 1st Friday of the month from 9am to 11am. There are plenty
of activities for children aged 0-5, as well as a healthy snack.
Parents and carers come and enjoy a coffee and the chance to catch up. £2.50 per family.
Any questions/queries please call Rachel on 07818 402 474.
We also have a Facebook Broad Hinton Kids’ Club.
The Ridgeway Ladies
On Wednesday 8th January the ladies met for their first meeting of 2020. The
meeting began with the Chairperson (Marilyn) giving a resume of the 2019
programme. What a varied programme it was ...from ballet to bee
keeping...and the members all agreed it was an excellent, varied and most
enjoyable year. In the absence of the treasurer Glynis ran through the financial
report and the committee was re-elected (unfortunately Elaine resigned from
the committee and Joy was welcomed as a new committee member). Once the
formalities of the AGM were completed it was quiz time!
Marilyn had prepared a wonderful picture quiz.....from places to sports
persons, actors to famous people. It was a chance to get the little grey cells
activated and to chat to each other. On the whole we did quite well but the
sports personalities proved a little challenging for many of us!
An enjoyable evening was had by all. Our next meeting is on Wednesday 5th
February at 7.45pm in the village hall when our speaker will be Ros Burden (an
acupuncturist). Ladies why not come and join us? We have another year of
interesting and varied speakers - a year’s subscription is only £20 or to come
along for a single meeting is £3.

Wiltshire Air Ambulance Christmas 2019
Thank you and well done to everyone who bought or sold supporting our amazing WAA. I’ve paid in
just under £4000 made up from the following:
Cards, diaries, merchandise, monetary donations, WAA Winter Raffle (main winner Ted Pomeroy from
Trowbridge, other winners can be found on the WAA website) and The Big Give. A huge Thank You to
ALL of the local businesses and their staff who sold on our behalf:
R.A. Jephson, and St John’s Pharmacies in Wroughton. Crumps Coffee Shop, J. Rouse and Son in Royal
Wootton Bassett, Kennet Pharmacy in Marlborough, The Winterbourne and The Crown Inn. The
Ellendune Community Centre in Wroughton for letting me share Friday mornings during Market Day
time and Village Hall Coffee Mornings and anywhere else that I might have popped up!!
Recycle 4 WAA
Broad Hinton Primary School are collecting empty crisp packets/multi—packet/family packs, outer
wrappings and Tassimo pods as part of their being kinder to our world and making some money to
support a very worth while charity in WAA.
These are dropped off at local collection points recycled and monies help to support WAA. The Head,
Mrs Floyd will be doing a drop off over half-term, please leave in School porch last week of term,
beginning 10.2.2020 or deliver to me at 9 The Croft, Broad Hinton. Ring JW 731476 for more info.
Our Heli and The Team celebrate 30 years of saving lives this year. WAA operate up to 19 hours a day
365 days a year, and reach anywhere in Wiltshire in 11 minutes. To keep her flying we need to raise
£3.75 million a year, that’s approximately £10,000 a day. They are not funded directly by the
government and receive no national lottery grants. WAA are called out to on average three life saving
missions a day in the Heli or rapid response vehicles to all kinds of emergencies from road traffic
accident, child related emergencies to horse riding and cycling accidents as well as to other medical
emergencies.
They attend incidents like this across Wiltshire and neighbouring counties when needed. 2019 was
their busiest year so far, thanks to all the generosity of people, community groups, schools, businesses
and grant making trusts who make donations and fundraise to keep WAA flying and providing its life
saving service.
Go to Wilshire Air Ambulance website for more
information if you’d like to do more.

BECOME A BELL-RINGER!
The ringers at the church of St
Peter ad Vincula at Broad Hinton
are looking for new recruits.
You’d start with one-on-one tuition with a
silenced bell. Once trained and able to
control a bell, novices will develop skills at
their own pace. Once competent, their
commitment would be to ring for services (2
or 3 Sundays per month) and occasional
weddings.
Interested? Contact Brian Poulton on
731158 or e-mail
It was good to see our loyal customers join us again after the Christmas break. We are here and raring to bring you new and exciting things during 2020.
Going plastic free is something we are continuing to tackle and hopefully we can come up with some other “planet friendly” schemes and items for you during the year. Watch this space...
Don’t forget ..... if you need anything bespoke or have any special requests please either come and speak to any of the producers at the market on a Friday morning (09.00 – 11.00) or ring Tina Grice on 01793 638240.

The coffee is fresh and delicious and we serve caffeinated and decaff. There is a variety of teas available as well as hot chocolate and all it costs is £1.00 per cup or £2.00 per mug.

VIEW FROM THE RECTORY
‘For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is
the pack.’ Rudyard Kipling
On a blustery Saturday in January we had the incredible ex-
perience of encountering Wolf-dogs. These extraordinary
creatures are gentle giants, 75% wolf, living with humans in
a tightly co-ordinated pack. I was entrusted with the small-
est female (larger than most GDS or Retrievers), very strong
and very loving. I marvelled at her ability to be fully present
with us, eager to join in the wandering of the much larger
pack of Wassailers, unfazed by anything except the physical
distance between her and the other two Wolf-dogs and their
human pack-mates. I began to ponder what we could learn
from them as we enter the month of Love - February.
Firstly they are fiercely loyal to their pack; they are the ultimate team players. Wolves will do
anything to protect their family, even if it means sacrificing themselves. They work together
to achieve a common goal that benefits the whole pack. They make the most of the resources
they have available and accept the situation they are in. Humans can also live in tough envi-
ronments but (in some cases) we don’t half moan about it - we could count blessings more!
The strict hierarchy in a wolf pack means that youngsters have a great respect for their elders.
I wonder who we need to have more respect for, regardless of age?
Wolves only take what they need. Humans tend to take far more than they need, which means
we are gradually ruining our planet. If we were as resourceful as wolves the world would be a
much better place and this is something we need to take to heart deeply and take action on
now.
Wolves could also teach us a great deal about true love, being more loyal to their families than
most humans, and relationships between siblings are just as strong as between cubs and par-
ents. In the wild it really is ‘until death us do part’, as they mate only once, for life. If you see
a lone wolf in the wild the chances are it is deeply grieving or a lonely youngster seeking a
soul mate.
An integral ingredient in showing love is communication and much of what happens between
wolves is non-verbal; it seems effortless to our human eyes but is actually underpinned by
their ability to show deep affection. Life can be intense and we forget to show those closest to
us affection: we could do a lot worse this February in the so-called month of Love than to
take time out to do just this! At one stage the wolf-dog went under my clergy cloak and snug-
gled against me, her entire weight on my leg. It felt wonderful to be so trusted and reminded
me of the promise that one day wolf, lion, lamb would live together in peace and a child
would lead them. Perhaps the wolf might give us some ideas to help us live differently this
February - St Francis certainly found it was so!
