We have arranged for the Ploughman’s Lunch to take place on Saturday

the Air Ambulance Flying Doctor appeal.

Police in Broseley are appealing for information after a pet cat was shot with an air weapon, forcing a vet to put it to sleep.

The seven month old black cat was shot at between about 8am and 11.30am on Friday(AUG 24) in the field behind Birch Meadow.

The owners realised something was wrong when it returned to the house at lunchtime and rushed the animal to the vet, where the pellet was found and the cat had to be put to sleep.

Constable Allan Hand, local police officer for the area, today appealed for anyone who saw or (more…)

The Ploughman’s lunch on September the 1st is to be postponed as it is the day of Roy Lane’s funeral. Apolosies to everyone.

A very sad loss for Broseley…

A long-serving Bridgnorth district councillor known as the “face of Broseley” today died while on holiday in Wales.
Councillor Roy Lane, 68, died this morning. Fellow councillors have paid tribute to a man they say will be greatly missed.
Councillor Lane, a trustee of the Lady Forrester Daycare and Residential Centre in Broseley, was honoured with an MBE in 2002 for his work with local government and the community.
Mayor of Broseley, Councillor Ian Pickles, today said: “Broseley Town Council is devastated by the loss of a friend and fellow councillor.
“Roy was an extremely dedicated member of the town and district council as well as a former county councillor.
“His vast experience and calm approach will be a huge loss to us. On a personal note I will miss Roy’s vast and sensible advice. Roy was in every sense a true Broseley man. The town will be a poorer place without him.

“The thoughts of the council are with his family at this sad time.
Broseley town and county councillor, Jean Jones, added: “I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say that Roy Lane was the public face of Broseley.
“He was a wonderful selfless public servant and a great champion for our town. Personally I’ve lost a valued colleague, a mentor and a much loved friend.”
Councillor Lane was chairman of the housing and environment committee and was a Bridgnorth district councillor for the Broseley West ward. An independent councillor, he joined the district council in 1974 clocking up 33 years.
Eleanor Harris, spokeswoman for the district council, said: “We are aware that Councillor Lane has passed away and everyone is shocked and saddened by his death.”

Ploughman’s lunch at Victoria Hall Saturday September 1st 12-2 (3.50 GBP)
to raise funds for the Flying Doctor Appeal for the Air Ambulance run
by the Mayor and members of Broseley Town Council. There will be the
lunch, raffle for a Fifty pound Tesco voucher, cake stall, tombola and
bookstall.
