Wimbish: The Parish Pump (Debden)

The Parish Pump was founded in 1979, bringing together the Church and Village magazines into a single publication to reflect the life and news of Debden. It is financially supported jointly by the Parish Council and the Parochial Church Council, and is distributed free to each home in the village by volunteers. Each published edition can also be viewed online at www.debden.org

The magazine has two editors but no official reporters. Consequently, an interesting magazine depends on articles coming from people in the village. The closing date for submitting content for publication is the 12th of each month.

NHS - Protect your child from MMR

Around 1 in 10 children in the UK aren’t vaccinated against measles, mumps or rubella (MMR).
The MMR vaccine is safe and offers the best protection for children and their community. If you can’t remember if your child has had their MMR vaccines, check their personal child health record (red book) and speak to your GP practice to book their first or second dose. Visit ​NHS-MMR vaccine for more information.​
