• December News from Sandown South. By Cllr Ian Ward.

  Well what a couple of years it has been with Covid lockdowns, then immunisation programmes, working from home, children off school etc. Let us hope that 2022 really is a year of recovery for all of us, although I doubt that things will ever get back to ‘Normal’ as we knew it. Anyway, as they say – things can only get better. I truly hope that each of you has a better 2022.
