Wanted - Snow Warden
The Snow Warden scheme enables communities to come together to help each other on a voluntary basis during times of extreme weather and Devon County Council is pledging to provide up to five tonnes of salt free of charge to parishes that sign up to the scheme. Swimbridge Parish Council is in favour of the scheme and is hoping that a volunteer co-ordinator from within the parish will step forward to assume the role of Snow Warden. The warden acts as a poinas a point of contact during winter for Devon CC and needs to demonstrate that they have arrangements in place to store and manage salt.
