FIRST AID TRAINING
Tetsworth Parish Council was asked to investigate the feasibility of running a First Aid course for interested residents. The Red Cross can provide a 4-hour training session for up to 12 people which could take place in the Memorial Hall. They can only do this during the working day. The cost would be £27/head based on 12 people attending.
If you would like TPC to arrange a course and to attend, please let me know by email to clerk@tetsworthparishcouncil.co.uk so that we can arrange a date. We would need to collect the charge for those attending at the time of booking to ensure that the course can take place; this will be refunded to participants once the course is complete.
UPDATE:- Enough people have expressed an interest for us to go ahead but the Red Cross are not considering booking before April at the earliest whilst they monitor the effect of the reduction in Covid-19 restrictions. As soon as we have more information, we'll contact those of you who'd like to take part.

Community First Oxfordshire - Parish Transport representative.
Community First Oxfordshire runs a Parish Transport Representative (PTR) network, backed by the County Council, to give communities a means of voicing their needs and concerns about local transport. A PTR is appointed by their local council. Meetings are held three times a year. As a PTR, you would be able to help identify, raise and discuss the transport needs of our community. You would also be a link between our community and the range of organisations and individuals involved in transport provision in the county. If you would be interested in representing Tetsworth as its PTR, please see Parish Transport representatives | Oxfordshire County Council or contact clerk@tetsworthparishcouncil.co.uk for more information. |

FUNDING FOR VILLAGE INFRASTRUCTURE
From your previous suggestions:
Survey work has been carried out and has established the feasibility of a zebra crossing between the Memorial Hall and the green. It would be too expensive for TPC to fund alone but has been added to the list of projects to be considered by the highways department of the county council. A speed survey to assess the need for a crossing was carried out by OCC in January 2022 and a safety survey will take place soon.
Wicket gates for the entrances to the village have been costed and should be in place this year.
Replacements for the 3 dilapidated metal benches on the green have been installed. Two more are on order to replace the unsafe wooden bench by the war memorial and the old iron one on the Jitty.
Two additional dog waste bins have been installed at the entrances from the A40 to Tetsworth Common and Judds Lane.
Funds have been given to the Memorial Hall to help with the refurbishment of the Memorial Hall and set aside to help the Primary School refurbish its trim trail.
Please leave suggestions for future village infrastructure projects.

Tetsworth Village History Project
As part of their efforts to assemble a credible evidence base, members of the Tetsworth Neighbourhood Development Plan Steering Group undertook a limited amount of research into the village’s history when preparing the Tetsworth Character Assessment, a key document supporting the Neighbourhood Plan.
With the Neighbourhood Plan now largely in the hands of SODC for its remaining stages of development, John Gilbert, Aidan Lynch and Caroline Cann have agreed that their next community project should be the preparation and possible publication of a more detailed history of Tetsworth. Source documents in the Oxfordshire History Archive in Cowley and the Thame Museum, and internet searches will provide a wealth of information. However, this will undoubtedly leave gaps in in the story which might be filled by the local knowledge of Tetsworth residents – particularly those whose families have lived in the village for a generation or more.
If you think that you could contribute information or would like to join in the project, please email John Gilbert.
