Raising funds to bring residents together
Our Residents’ Association chairman, Stephen, is running 10km this Sunday 21 October at Greenwich Park to raise funds for more activities that bring our community together.
The main focus will be to help residents that are isolated, such as single parents, their children, and the elderly.
Stephen’s goal is £300 (and he’s nearly there), so if you can, chip in for this good cause!
Update
Congratulations to Stephen who completed the run in under an hour! He’s raised £350 so far, but it’s not too late to donate – simply follow the link above.

Keeping safe
Lower the likelihood of theft or damage to your car.
There’s been a spate of broken car windows on the estate and its surrounds, and the advice from local police is to make sure you leave nothing – not even small items of clothing or shopping – on display, as most of the crimes are committed by addicts who are desperate to fund their habit.
The cost and nuisance of replacing car windows usually greatly exceeds the value of the items stolen, so it’s worth the effort.
If you see a crime as it’s happening, please call the police immediately on 999.
