A BIG THANK YOU TO WJ SOUTH! 👏

Today, WJ UK South visited Long Marston to complete new line marking at the Recreation Ground/Café car park and Victory Hall.

As part of the work, the team have:

♿ Created new designated disabled parking bays
🚗 Improved and clarified the parking layout
📦 Created a clearer loading bay at the front of Victory Hall
🚶 Improved pedestrian markings and access around the hall

The work has made a really positive difference to the appearance, layout and accessibility of these important community facilities.

And the best part – this work has been carried out completely FREE OF CHARGE under WJ's Community Support Scheme. 🙌

Tring Rural Parish Council would like to extend a huge thank you to Andy Willis, Contracts Manager at WJ South Limited, and the WJ team for giving their time, expertise and materials to support our local community.

Their generosity means that we can make these improvements to our community facilities without the cost falling on parish residents.

Thank you, WJ! 👏

Celebrating Colin's Service to Our Community

At the end of this month, we mark the retirement of our much-valued Warden, Colin, and take the opportunity to recognise his exceptional dedication to our community.

Colin began his career in public service as a police officer, retiring from the Police Force in 1987. Following this, he continued his commitment to serving others by taking on the role of Cemetery Warden, and later becoming Warden for TRPC.

Over the course of 38 years, Colin has shown unwavering dedication, professionalism, and care in his work. His role has gone far beyond day-to-day responsibilities; he has been a constant, trusted presence and has made a lasting contribution to the wellbeing and dignity of our community spaces.

As Colin steps into retirement, we extend our sincere thanks and appreciation for his many years of service. His commitment and hard work will be remembered with great respect, and he leaves behind a legacy of service that will not be forgotten.

We wish Colin every happiness and fulfilment in his well-earned retirement.
