| Our Autumn newsletter is now out for delivery and will hopefully soon be dropping through Association members’ letterboxes Our stewards will also be doing their best to collect subs from you so, if you find an envelope along with the newsletter we would be very grateful if you could return it with the money and noting your name and address to the road steward named on the envelope. We are still desperately short of people to deliver the newsletter so there will be copies in several locations in the village including Maison du Soleil and the Library. Please, if you think you may be able to spare an hour or so once a quarter to help, either let your road steward know (see above) or contact us at ickenhamresidents@hotmail.com or our membership secretary Julian Ingram ickres.memsec@gmail.com or 01895 236955. We would love to hear from you Thank you in advance |

At long last we are able to print and deliver our latest newsletter

We hope all our members get one dropping through their letterbox but just in case we will be leaving copies in the Library and, hopefully, in Maison du Soleil

AGM postponed and Coronavirus
In view of the rapidly changing situation and advice on the Coronavirus outbreak, we have taken the decision to postpone our AGM scheduled for 17th April 2020. Once the situation has eased we will call an EGM to cover the decisions we would normally have made at the AGM and we will let you have the requisite notice of its date.
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this may cause but feel it is the safest and wisest course of action.
This information will be going on our website and via all our other means of communication but if you could let any neighbours who are not on social media know, we would be very grateful.
Also in the true spirit of our village community:
Lets keep looking out for each other
We are rightly proud of our community spirit in Ickenham and, over the coming weeks, please have a think about your friends and neighbours that might need a hand.
Age UK says:
Stay in touch over the phone, by post, online or by popping over for a chat.
See if people need any shopping or help by running some errands.
Encourage people to stay active around the house and keep moving.
Spring newsletter and 2016 AGM minutes
As you may know, we publish newsletters on line as soon as the next one hits the streets. So the Spring one is now online. With AGMs, we can’t publish the minutes until they’re approved, a year later at the next AGM. I should have posted the 2016 ones in April. So, the 2016 AGM minutes are here now, with my apologies.
Residents’ Association AGM
We were delighted to see so many members packed into the Village Hall for our AGM last Friday.
We were also pleased to welcome so many of our local councillors: Ray Puddifoot; David Simmonds; and John Hensley from Ickenham Ward, as well as Philip Corthorne and Brian Crowe from West Ruislip ward. We also welcomed our MP Nick Hurd and Squadron Leader James Tenniswood from RAF Northolt.
The formal business proceeded smoothly and the Committee members were duly re-elected for another year’s term of office plus the two co-opted members, Beryl Upton (HS2) and Simon Taylor (Traffic).
Ray Puddifoot spoke about the Council’s opposition to the third runway and its work to get agreement on traffic etc. from HS2.
Sqdr Ldr Tenniswood updated us on the planned improvements to the runway and arrester beds. He stressed the strategic importance of RAF Northolt. He also explained NORFEST and invited local organisations to take stands on the day.
Questions from the floor were mainly about HS2 and pollution. R Puddifoot stated that LBH would install monitors and keep a close eye on the results
The meeting closed with the traditional light refreshments. Our thanks to the ‘kitchen team’ led by Barbara Buckle and to Vic Silk and David John for keeping the drinks flowing.
Diary Date: AGM 21 April 8pm
Members of the Association will be welcome to attend the AGM on 21st April, 8pm in the Village Hall. Please bring your ‘Ickenham Calling…..’ newsletter as ID (and the enclosed AGM minutes). The hall capacity is 200 and we usually get very close to it, so don’t come late – you may not get in.
We look forward to meeting you there.
Chairman’s review of 2015-6
As part of the AGM, the Chairman reviews the Association’s activities during the preceding year. She also does a lot of other things like calling for votes on this and that and introducing the guest speakers. While much of this has to await the members’ approval next year, we thought it would be a good idea to see the body of her presentation here.
Minutes of the 2015 AGM available now
Each year we have to get the previous year’s minutes approved before we can upload them to the website. This happened last night. We should have added the 140+ members of the Association to the list of attendees. Apologies, and thanks to John Coombe for reminding us.
2016 AGM
Last night’s AGM was a splendid affair, despite the rain. Over 140 people in the room. Speakers included our MP, Nick Hurd, and LBH council leader, Ray Puddifoot. The proceedings were handled beautifully by Jill Dalton.
We were rather taken with this snap of a Mayor (knitted by Beryl Upton) and the deputy mayor waiting for the proceedings to begin. John Hensley (pictured) will become our Mayor in three weeks time.
We will shortly be publishing (here) Jill Dalton’s report of the year. Watch this space.
Our sincere thanks to all the Association members who came along. We hope you found the event useful and enjoyable.
