Please help keep our village safe:

A huge thank you to Councillor Shaun Thompson for over 10 years of dedicated service to our community.

Shaun has been involved in countless parish projects, supported the Leisure Centre, helped maintain the churchyard and always stepped forward when needed.

As Shaun and Rebecca prepare for their move to York, we'd like to thank him for his commitment, hard work and positive contribution to village life.

From everyone at Bubwith Parish Council – thank you Shaun, and we wish you both every happiness for the future.

❤️ Please join us in sharing your thanks in the comments.
