On the evening of Sunday, 18th September, hundreds of people gathered on the Memorial Gardens to observe a candle-lit vigil in memory of Her Late Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.
The Len Pick Trust was deeply saddened to learn of Her Late Majesty’s death on Thursday, 8th September 2022. Trustees join with the rest of the country in mourning Her Late Majesty’s death, whilst remembering her unwavering commitment to duty. We send our deepest condolences to His Majesty the King and the Royal Family.
A grant from the Len Pick Trust has enabled Bourne Methodist Church to clean and re-finish their wooden block floor.
This in turn helps to ensure that their Church Hall remains a usable versatile space for the whole community.
The annual Butterfly release took place in Bourne on Saturday, 20th August on the Wellhead Field.
The event, organised by The Butterfly Hospice Trust, provided bereaved families with a touching occasion to remember their loved ones.
The Len Pick Trust was pleased to provide a grant to facilitate the event.
Trust funding has enabled Bourne Town Council to replace or refurbish benches around the town.
Around 35 benches have been repaired, re-painted or replaced as necessary by Gary’s Gardens Services – look out for them in Cawthorpe, Dyke and on the North Road/Mill Drove junction.
Just before half past ten last night the male barn owl brought a vole to the nest as the female was removing the egg shell from around the new born chick.
We now have six healthy chicks
.
Late yesterday afternoon, soon after half past five, our fifth chick hatched.
Fingers crossed for our last egg hatching sometime early on Saturday morning.
Yesterday morning, around 7am, the fourth barn owl egg hatched.
The fifth is due on Wednesday afternoon.
On Friday night at about 9.30pm the third chick hatched.
The next one should be due tomorrow morning.
Just before lunchtime yesterday, the second barn owl chick emerged from its egg.
The next one is due on Friday night.
This morning, about half past one, one of the eggs started to pip and soon after two o’clock a chick was visible.
All being well the next egg should hatch sometime on Wednesday.
