A s another Scouting year comes to a close it is always good to
reflect on the achievements and activities of our Group in
Nettleham. We are very fortunate to continue to have committed
and enthusiastic leaders here in Nettleham which reflects on the
oversubscribed beaver, cub and scout units. The young people get
excellent scouting experiences throughout the Group, supported by
the leaders, their parents/carers and the wider village community.
The Scout Movement has just released the next five year plan – Skills
for Life – with this mission statement
“Scouting actively engages and supports young people in their
personal development, empowering them to make a positive
contribution to society”
As a Group we will continue to work together to help the young
people achieve, enjoy and contribute within the fun and exciting
environment that Scouting offers.
These photos show a few of the great activities that our Group
have taken part in over the past few months. Camping, climbing,
canoeing, crafts etc and three of our scouts achieved their Chief
Scout’s Gold Award which is the highest challenge award a scout can
achieve. Well done!
A massive thank you to all the leaders and helpers. Time for
a break now but we will be back in September ready for more
challenges!

‘The Great Get Together’
- by Debbie Stevens
O n Saturday 23rd June, Nettleham Festive Market
committee member Debbie Stevens held her first
event aimed at bringing the local community together. It
was a fantastic day with representatives from various clubs and
groups from the village coming down to give out information on
what activities are available in Nettleham. There were delicious
handmade cakes and sandwiches as well as tea and coffee
available, free of charge. “I would like to thank everyone that came
along, including all those that gave up their Saturday morning to
help support the event, also, a special thank you to those that
donated cakes- they were amazing! We had the support of the Co-
op, Waitrose and Tesco who gave a donation towards the food.”
Debbie is also arranging a Christmas day meal for anyone in
the village that would usually be alone, please contact Debbie on
01522 807366 for further information and to book a place.

COUNCIL AMENITY AREAS (Washdyke).
Apart from the main areas the Parish Council
is responsible for such as The Old School,
Mulsanne Park, Bill Bailey’s playing field, the
burial ground, etc., there are also many other
aspects of the village which the Property
Committee look after which are classed as
amenity areas.
The largest of these is the Village Green
which is a quintessential feature of village
life. Far from being a network of roads and
shops as it is now, in times past it was an
open green space and was once the location
for the village stocks used for punishing
troublemakers; a little further away on
Vicarage Lane a ducking stool was used in
the beck for disorderly women, scolds, and
dishonest tradesmen! In more recent times a
maypole would be erected for the traditional
celebrations of Mayday and the Burton Hunt
used to regularly start their meet on The
Green. These activities would have brought
the crowds out in force and happily people
still come to the heart of the village for
more pleasurable enjoyment like our annual
carnival in the summer and more recently
the first festive market held in December, not
forgetting delicious cooked breakfasts by the
Scouts twice a year. Remembrance Sunday is
also a focus every November for a collective
service at our War Memorial.

I ran past the hub and saw circuits on in the car park. My mind
wandered to earlier on that day when I had brought my childminded

remembering that someone had hired out the studio space so their
children could practise dance classes because there wasn’t enough
space at home. On the Saturday just gone I remembered walking past
the hub window and Buddies dementia group having an afternoon
dance watching them arm in arm, dancing away. I remembered Janet
having mosaic classes in her studio and a lady from it asked if she
could display her artwork on our wall. Her son had asked her the
previous week to start displaying her artwork because it was so good.
In one week she had sold two art pieces and this was the first time
she had done anything like this. I remembered having to help out at
messy play because it had become so popular and coming out of there

exploring with their senses. I remembered working away in my office

New tricks are around for the summer. Every Wednesday 1-3pm a
member from sound lincs will be teaching adults over 50 how to learn
a musical instrument, re connect with their love for music or be part
of something in the community. They have had many people who
take part in these workshops that vary from someone who has had a
stroke and would like to reconnect to their passion for music to others
that don’t have the confidence to pick something up but would like to.
From guitar, saxophone, recorder, percussion or any instrument that
inspires you to play. Once the sessions get going they will be tailored
to a style of music depending on the groups needs. This could range
from jazz, classic, rock, folk whatever the needs of the group are.

I run mosaic classes and a variety of art projects. Within the next year Acoustic Music (stay or play) Sat 11th Aug 12:30 – 2:30pm
I am hoping to put together and run an arts project that will bring
together the Nettleham community, it will be in the form of a mosaic Family Crafts in the Hub
mural that depicts our community, what the Hub has brought and 21st July – 31st August Summer Reading Challenge
what it means to the village.
I am looking for people who would like to be part of this project, to
work alongside other people/groups…
Mum/toddler groups … nursery/pre school. … infant school ….
Junior school. ….secondary school… Buddies group…. Luncheon club…
Hub users …arts/crafts people…you!
I will be asking the local children and schools to make some designs
depicting what the hub and the growth of our community cohesion
means to the good of all.
What I need to know is if you are interested; I can then get a feel
of the scale of the project, I would like to be able to involve as many
groups of people as possible, which will require a certain amount of
planning!
I intend to use my Tuesday mosaic group to assist with the coming
together of participants and installation…with all this knowledge I can
put together a proposal and apply for the funding.
Look forward to hearing from you, mob: 07716249786

As past readers of Nettleham Matters may remember, we
have run a number of appeals over the past year for new team
members to ensure the Carnival was able to continue. I would like
to extend a special thanks to the new team members who have
joined us, so Tina and John, Mo, Steve, John and Chris, Ray and
Venessa, John M, Joe (returning to the fold), Dave, Diane - I hope
you have enjoyed yourselves as much as we have enjoyed having
you as part of the team. You certainly helped spread the load and
enable us to run some different games. If anyone else would like
to get involved in next year’s carnival, please get in touch with us
at nettlehamcarnivalteam@gmail.com . We may have increased the
size of our team, but we still need your help, and don’t worry you
