Bert Dever 1945 - 2019

Bert was born on the 1st of March 1945 and sadly passed away on Wednesday the 27th of March 2019. He was a resident in Oak Lane, Upchurch for over 40 years, and will be sadly missed by everyone.

The family is hoping to contact some of Bert's friends, and we are especially keen to trace Lesley who was the landlady of the Rose Inn, Rainham, some years ago. Lesley is well known to people in the Upchurch and Rainham area.

Thank you

Michael Dever

Join The Great British Spring Clean - Upchurch

Upchurch Parish Council has once again pledged its support for this year’s Great British Spring Clean, organised by environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy and supported locally by Swale Borough Council and Biffa.

The Great British Spring Clean is the country’s biggest mass-action environmental campaign and aims to bring together individuals, community organisations, businesses and councils to make a difference to the environment on our doorstep.

The campaign was first run in 2017. In 2018, despite the Beast from the East, more than 371,566 litter heroes (including more than 126,651 school children) collected over 630,000 bags of rubbish. In total 13,500 events were held over the campaign period and 300 local authorities took part.

2019

The 2019 campaign, which runs from March 22nd to April 23rd will see up to half a million people taking part to clean up streets, parks and beaches across the country.

Keep Britain Tidy Chief Executive Allison Ogden-Newton said:

“The Great British Spring Clean is an opportunity for the millions of people who care about the environment on their doorstep to do something positive that will make a visible difference.”

Please join us

Upchurch Parish Council is once again calling on all villagers to volunteer as litter pickers and clean up Upchurch!

Previous Spring Cleans have inspired many of our village groups and residents to take part in the litter pick. The tremendous village effort resulted in dozens of sacks of litter being cleaned up from our village spaces and the surrounding country lanes.

To volunteer, please meet at Holywell School, Forge Lane on Friday the 5th of April at 10:30am or at the Recreation Ground car park, Oak Lane on Saturday the 6th, where all equipment will be provided.

Thank you for your help and support.
