Community Shop
A major project is underway to try to set up a Community Shop in the village.
The Shop Committee have recently been successful in obtaining funding
to cover architect's fees and legal fees to progress the project.
They are planning a public meeting to give residents the opportunity to see
the drawings and comment on the scheme. For the scheme to be successful, it
will rely heavily on volunteers from the community.
Watch the notice boards and newsletters for the announcement of the public
meeting.

Speedwatch
The Marhamchurch volunteer Community Speedwatch was the first Speedwatch to be
set up within the Devan & Cornwall Constabulary area and was one of the first
developments resulting from the Parish Plan. It, together with
some other local Speedwatches co-ordinated via Bude police station, acted
as a pilot to test the effectiveness and develop procedures.
The success of this pilot in helping to curb speeding resulted
in Speedwatch being introduced in many other areas across Devon and
Cornwall.
If you would like to be involved, or are merely interested in finding out
more, please make contact using the e-mail or telephone number given on the
'Contact us' page.
Marhamchurch Newsletter
The Marhamchurch Newsletter was started by a small group of volunteers as
a result of the very strong support shown for a newsletter in the Parish Plan
responses.
It has now been going for 12 issues!
If anyone is interested in helping in any way, be it providing/collecting news,
editing or printing the newsletter or helping to deliver it, please make
contact using the e-mail or telephone number given on the 'Contact us' page.
Other volunteering opportunities
Watch this page, and the newsletters, for other volunteering opportunities in
the parish. There will almost certainly be a 'beach clean' on one of the parish
beaches and possibly also a 'japanese balsam pull', a playpark maintenance day
and a litter pick.
