LEGO BATMAN MOVIE

By

Thursday 24 August is Family Cinema in St Georges Church Hall Waterlooville.  Don't know what to do with the kids?, then bring them along.  At the beginning of August was the BFG film.  That was really good (and I am not a kid!) disappointed you missed it? then come to this next one.  You don't have to bring a child(!) but if you do it is £3 for child, £5 for adult and £10 family ticket and there is a drink and treat included.
To keep the cinema going people must support it as it has to be self funding so hope to see you there.

PARK WOOD IN DANGER

By
 This wood could be lost to the community if the Woodland Trust get their way! Many people know of Park Wood.  A small wood which is found on the London Road between Wallis Road and Queens Road, opposite Queens Enclosure.  It is a Woodland Trust Wood.  They took it over nearly 30 years ago and for the first 10 years they virtually ignored it.  It became shadowed with Sycamore and laurel.  It became waterlogged.  It became dark and dangerous with litter,  junkies, used needles, fires and in fact people were attacked in there.  Not a place you wanted to enter.  Then the Friends of Park Wood were formed and for nearly 20 years the friends (consisting of local residents) have maintained the wood always following a management plan as written by the Woodland Trust.  The wood was transformed to what it is today.  A place where you can walk.  Schools use it to teach children about the environment.  The bluebells flourish.  People walk their dogs in there.  It is a pretty wo

FESTIVE LIGHTS, NONE FOR WATERLOOVILLE!

By
Some of you may have read previous blogs as I have tried to work my way through the bureaucracy of licensing and installation for festive lights in the town centre.  In fairness the paperwork has been easier (was started in JUNE!) mainly because a lovely lady called Katie in Havant Borough Council has been helping me. So why am I saying there will be no festive lights in Waterlooville this year?  Scottish and Southern Electrics SSE!!   We have to get permission to hang the motifs from their lighting columns (also know as lamp posts!)  To do that we have to get an installer approved by them!! Our installer from last year retired and we had to find a new one.  To hang, plug in and flick a switch on  8 motifs, put the lights in the Xmas tree, plug in and flick a switch, and also hang some battery powered lights in the trees (and remove)   Our first quote COST £3500  Which we felt was excessive. We did find a local installer, Clinton Electrics.  They do work for Havant Bo

WATERLOOVILLE in BLOOM WINNER

By
           Waterlooville in Bloom was won by Waterlooville Community Centre with their fantastic display.  Kelly Tice a volunteer from the Waterlooville Events Team can be seen presenting the trophy.  Today's first engagement for the Mayor of Havant was the judging of the Waterlooville in Bloom competition. Starting at the Waterlooville Community Centre, and accompanied by  Waterlooville Events Team volunteer Kelly Tice, they walked around Waterlooville town centre looking at the entries submitted by several of the shops and businesses in the area. There were some really good entries this year but, in the end, it was decided that the recipient of this year's award was the Waterlooville Community Association for their very colourful display.
