THE Annual General Meeting of the Gratton Trust will be held at the Gratton Pavilion, in Sutton Scotney on Thursday, October 2 at 7.30pm.

The charity was set up in 1997 after the large swathe of green space on the edge of the village was donated to the community by Lord Arthur Rank.

The trust manages all the day-to-day maintenance of the land, such as grass cutting, repairs to the pavilion and the maintenance of play equipment.

This costs £15,000 per year, all of which needs to be raised through donations.

All villagers are welcome to attend.
