More about Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe

The Civil Parish of Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe lies between Kenilworth & Warwick in Warwickshire and includes the hamlets of Hill Wootton, Chesford, Goodrest, North & Middle Woodloes. This Facebook page is related to the Leek Wootton & Guy's Cliffe Hubsite, which aims to connect residents and former residents with news and events from people and organisations in and around the parish.

This page is inspired by the touching responses received when news of the death of one of Leek Wootton's best known and best loved residents, Mrs Chris Jackson, was received on a Facebook Group set up and used by people who grew up in the village during the 70s and 80s.

At her funeral her daughter mentioned the comments that were made and, whilst she admitted that Chris would have had no concept of Facebook, she would have been touched.

It was also apparent that the news of her death had spread farther via one Post in the virtual community than it had by word of mouth through the physical community, with many people being told by their children who are now grown up and no longer live here.

When the administrators of the Parish Hubsite (which since being set up in 2001 has itself proven to be a useful community tool) heard these stories, they felt that amongst the arguments that social networking sites are destroying the traditional community, this was evidence that, used effectively, they could enhance what is already a thriving community.
