Devastating news Parish Councillor Mrs Wendy Barker – It was with the greatest sadness that we had the loss of Wendy. May she RIP. She was a major part of Skidbrooke and Saltfleet. Her dedication to the Community was huge. Wendy was always there to help out, was involved in the Gala, the Methodist Church events and many other activities. As a Parish Councillor, Wendy always voiced her opinion and stood up for the Parish. She will not be forgotten.
