The Parish Council would like to point out to all residents that every activity and action it takes is open to scrutiny, debate and discussion at the Parish Council Meetings which are open to the public. All decisions and actions, financial or otherwise are recorded in the minutes and published on the Parish Council Website and displayed in the Parish Council Noticeboard, thus ensuring openness, transparency and accountability. The only exceptions to this are matters of a confidential and sensitive nature which are dealt with in the closed session of the agenda, the results of those discussions are however publicly recorded in the minutes and published on the website and the noticeboard. 

The Parish Council would like to reiterate once again for clarity, that they have repeatedly reassured residents that the Alt Centre is not closing down and the activities that take place there, including the community café, community library, cycle workshops, beach cleaning activities, Astronomical Society Meetings and the availability of the facilities to residents and other interested community groups are only suspended whilst the building is temporarily closed due to the pandemic. It will reopen to the public as a community resource and all activities resume, once it is safe to do so.
