Parham Picture Palace *Special Event*

9 January 2020

A happy New Year to all our film fans - and potential ones, we hope!
 
On this coming Saturday Sarah Davies will be presenting the 2018 documentary 'Maiden'.  This is the story of the first all female crewed yacht to take part in the Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race in 1989.  Sarah, who lives in Parham, was one of the crew on that historic voyage and will be presenting the film and talking afterwards about the experience.  This is a rare opportunity to hear about a moment in sailing history from someone who was involved so do come along if you can.
 
As usual, the bar will be open at 7 pm and film will start at approximately 7.30.  There will be ice creams and nibbles as always. Suggested donation £5.
 
See you (and all your sailing friends!) on Saturday.
 
Jane

Changes to carton recycling

24 October 2019

Earlier this year, the Suffolk Waste Partnership - which comprises Suffolk County Council and the district and borough councils - took the difficult decision to remove cartons and Tetra-paks from the list of materials that could be placed in household recycling bins. New industry regulations require cartons to be sorted separately from cardboard and it has been decided this is not a viable option.
