Pembury crossing update

Met the head teacher at Pembury Primary School this morning first thing. Although the Courier ran a great story this week, she hasn't had a single call from any potential lollipop person. Spoke to the reporter again who told me he intended to run a 'follow up piece' so that should give us more much-needed publicity.

I was pleased to hear that Radio Kent have picked up the story, and will bring their radio car to the school tomorrow morning to broadcast a story.

By late morning I heard that BBC South East were sending a crew to the school this afternoon to film a piece for tonight's local news.

In getting lots of coverage like this, it should only be a matter of time before someone out there volunteers for the job.

Fingers crossed.
