The Walton
is delivered to 2800 homes in Walton every other month. It alternates with The Sandal Arrow. We have the opportunity to spread your news, whether you are forming a new group or just need more members. The Arrow is here to be used by the community to help share information free of change and bring communities closer together. Do you think this will benefit your village and the people who live here? If so, please get in touch. I would love to hear from you. If you are organising summer fayres or fund raising events of different types, let me know, and I will spread the word. Cubs, Beavers, WI, Church, Friendship groups, Coffee mornings, Toddler groups, the list is endless‌. Deadline for articles for the Sandal Arrow is Wednesday 27th May.
Happy Easter
