Welcome to Aspatrias-Voice

This site has been put online to allow the residents of Aspatria and its surrounding areas
to have a voice and a say on what is going on in their area.
It is a place for people to drop by, to hopefully join in with our forum and have their say,
share their views or just air off at what ever is bothering them.
It is also a place to make new friends if you so wish.

In time we hope that this site will be a popular place for people to drop by to check up
what events are happening in our town, and also to use it to advertise events that are
happening in Aspatria and Surrounding Villages.



I am also pleased to say that we have just been given the go ahead to put a
page on here for Aspatria Town Council, so please remember to check it out.
Aspatria Town Council`s latest Newsletter can be found by clicking the link below.

Aspatrias Voice Forum has a section called ask your Town Council, we are hoping,
that in time we will have a few more Councillor`s to join the Forum now
they have a page on our site.

Here is an message I received off Wendy Campbell on the 17-10-07

Can I Thank all those who donated the daffodil bulbs and hope they
bloom profusely and bring a bit of brightness to the Town, they
will be looked at with pride and memory's.

Thanks to those who help plant them disreguarding
the weather and their aches and pains.

The following poem will be on the front of the Remembrance
book which will be on show in St Kentigerns Church
at Spring time.

We remember you in our own way,
We think about you most every day,
A bulb has been planted, so in the Spring,
When the days get warmer, and birds start to sing,
You will appear and hold your heads up high,
Turn your faces to the sun, and look up to the sky,
We will look at you and remember once again,
How you added brightness to our lives, and in our hearts remain.

Aspatria Gala Day June 9th 2007

Well Done to the organisers of this years carnival.

Lots of people took part in this years carnival, there was a continuous stream of
Gala Day floats. Even the weather was gorgeous and very hot, it
brought lots of people out to watch our annual Gala Day.

We have just read an article about racial abuse towards the
Annan Scottish Piper Band in the Cumberland News.
We can only apologise for the behaviour of these few ignorant people
that set about ruining our Gala Day.

Please dont let this taint any future events!

If anyone has any Gala Day pictures they would like to share
please email them on to us.
