Good Neighbours Olympic Gold!

What is the connection between our Good Neighbours project and a British Olympic gold medal winner at the Beijing Olympics?! Well, often on Good Neighbours Sundays our volunteers can be seen on Whitehorse Lane cutting the hedge of one of the older residents of the Ocean Estate. For some time we've been aware that John Hunter's grandson was an Olympic medal hope in rowing but we were really delighted to see Mark Hunter bring home a gold medal in the 'Lightweight Double Scull'. Read about it here... And well done to John.

Deal With It Day!

This Saturday our community festival organised by the Drug Action Forum is taking place. Make sure you come along!

Camping 08

So another camping weekend has been and gone and early feedback would suggest this was our best yet, despite a wet Sunday morning! Mersea Island proved a hit and some of us even made it into the sea for a swim...
