BUSINESSES SUPPORTING THE EVENTS TEAM

What a fantastic effort from the staff at J Edwards and Co-operative Funeral care, who raffled 2 luxury hampers, a bottle hamper and a sweet hamper, as well as selling mulled wine and mince pies to all at the Xmas event.. They managed to raise an enormous £197 which goes back into the Events Team, allowing us to put on more FREE events for the local community. Well done everyone! Were you the lucky winner???

CHRISTMAS GROTTO

Christmas is really coming and excitement is mounting! The Events Team have again built a grotto in the library. Bring the children and experience the winter wonderland and visit Father Xmas in his house. £2 a child and they receive a wrapped gift and chocolate. BIG BIG thank you to volunteers, library staff and men's shed for building this magical kingdom!

COMMUNITY MEETING

Business meetings every 2 months have been held in Waterlooville for the last year. At the last meeting in September it was decided to open up the meetings to the local residents as well as businesses as it was an opportunity for the people who live in Waterlooville to find out more about what is going on...BAE site and leisure facilites; Wellington Way; cycle paths; shops closing; improve pavillion in the Jubilee park etc etc. All those things people talk about. Come along to the next meeting and ask those questions and push for answers. For too long Waterlooville has been very quiet perhaps this is the time to push the council. Your local ward councillors will be there as well as council officers and cabinet members. The next meeting is on: MONDAY 27 NOVEMBER 6pm St Georges Church Hall Tell your friends and bring them along

BUSINESS/COMMUNITY MEETING

Business/community meeting held last night. Sadly only ONE business attended and 20 residents. Even with such a poor turn out some interesting topics were discussed and it was agreed that there should be another meeting in Mid July but at 7.30pm so that more people will be able to attend. The 5.30 start had been to encourage businesses, but that obviously failed! From the meeting: Subway being repaired;Jubilee park facilities under review - A meeting to be called to discuss way forward for the park. Wellington way- discussion on lack of parking etc. Comments can still be sent to HBC until beginning of June. Remember next meeting will be mid July, Date will be well publicised with plenty of advance notice. If still a poor turn out there will be no more!
