Bolnore resident Chris Belton stood down as Chair of the Bolnore Community Interest Company with effect from the end of April. The board thanked Chris for all the time and effort he put into the role over the years. ‘His dedication to the role of Chair has certainly improved the environment of the Village for all residents’. Carlos Leon took over as Chair from 1st May. ‘Carlos has already been a Director on the board for several years. He will bring a wealth of experience to the role and we are looking forward to working more closely with Carlos over the coming months ahead’. Martin Heath has decided it is time to step down as a director. ‘Martin was involved in BVCIC from the outset and has provided valuable input over the years. We would like to thank Martin for the support he has provided to Pembroke and the community’.

Bolnore Macmillan Coffee Morning

One Bolnore resident decided to join in with the national fundraising campaign for Macmillan Cancer Support by hosting the first World’s Biggest Coffee Morning in the village.

“I’m not aware that there has ever been one before,” Della Mold explained, “so I wanted to give it a go.”

The event was a great success, raising over £500 for the charity, as Della sold cakes and held a raffle on the day.

“It was a fantastic morning with donations for the raffle from local businesses, including the Bolnore Co-op food store. It gave me a great feeling to know there are so many people that care and will help.”
