Weds 6 November -  The Keeper (15)
(2018 - Biography, Drama, Romance)
The Keeper tells the incredible true story of Bert Trautmann, a German soldier and prisoner of war who, against a backdrop of British post-war protest and prejudice, secures the position of Goalkeeper at Manchester City, and in doing so becomes a footballing icon. Struggling for acceptance by those who dismiss him as the enemy, Bert's love for Margaret, an Englishwoman, carries him through and he wins over even his harshest opponents by winning the 1956 FA Cup Final, playing on with a broken neck to secure victory. But fate will soon twist the knife for Bert and Margaret, when their love and loyalty to each other is put to the ultimate test.

Apply now for right to remain in UK – Citizens Advice

17/11/2019

0 Comments

If you are a European Union citizen living or working in the UK, you might be wondering what will happen when the United Kingdom leaves the EU and what you should do so that you have the right to remain in this country.

The government has set up a programme called the EU Settlement Scheme which is intended for you. There is no charge for applying to this scheme. Citizens of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland can also apply. It is important that you apply NOW, without waiting until the UK actually leaves. You can begin the process here: 

https://www.gov.uk/settled-status-eu-citizens-families/applying-for-settled-status

If your application is successful you will be able to continue living in the UK after 30 June 2021. You will also have the right to work in the UK, use the National Health Service, get access to benefits and pensions if you are eligible, and travel in and out of the country.  There is more information about your rights on the government website.

The new deadline for the UK to leave the EU is 31 January 2020 but it is still unclear exactly how it will take place, especially in view of the general election in December.

If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, you will need to be living in the UK BEFORE it leaves the EU in order to apply.

Check the Citizens Advice website at:

https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/immigration/staying-in-the-uk-after-brexit 

South Oxfordshire District Council also has up-to-date advice on www.southoxon.gov.uk/brexit

You can visit Citizens Advice in person or call us on Adviceline (0300 330 9042). For locations of offices and opening hours see www.citizensadvice.org.uk/local/oxfordshire-south-vale

Our next exciting concert at Stonevale will be on Sunday, the 17th of Nov. We haven’t had Manus for a few years!  Some of you have been asking for a long time when we will get him back. At last!

Please be sure to reserve seats, as Manus’ concerts in the past were packed. 

Best wishes,

Urgent Neighbourhood Watch Alert

8/11/2019

0 Comments

 
Yesterday morning and afternoon (Friday 8th November), someone we believe to be a member of a group of car thieves and burglars whose activities are known to the police in Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and most recently Shrivenham, has been surveying and photographing the village houses, drives, gardens and back gardens and even knocking on peoples' doors. Two questions that were asked were 'where is the vicar's house?' and 'is there a way out of the village at the lower end?'
 
As an urgent precaution please ensure cars, houses, sheds etc are kept locked whether or not you are at home; please look out windows and take photos and report anyone behaving suspiciously; and if you have neighbours not on this mailing list, please alert them.

Neighbourhood Watch Officer
