Little Paxton Parish Council have set up an online book of condolence in remebrance of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh who sadly died last week. You can submit a message to the public online Book of Condolence by visiting their website www.littlepaxtonparishcouncil.gov.uk Once the period of mourning has ended, the Council will print the Book and have it bound to be kept in the Little Paxton Parish Council's archive.
A letter of condolence will be issued to Buckingham Palace from the Chairman of the Parish Council and will advise that a Little Paxton Book of Condolence has been created. If you are a resident of Little Paxton and would like to sign the Book but are unable to complete the form, please contact the Parish Council and they will endeavour to assist you.

Flowers
In accordance with public health advice, members of the public are asked to continue to follow current government covid guidelines, particularly on avoiding meeting in large groups to keep themselves and others safe. Instead of laying flowers you may wish to make a donation to a charity of your choice, or one of the Duke of Edinburgh's patronages in memory of His Royal Highness. A list of those supported by the Duke of Edinburgh can be found here:
