WATERLOOVILLE BUSINESSES DO CARE!

Businesses in Waterlooville do care! The volunteers of the Events team have approached the businesses and asked for a donation of £20 towards the cost of the Xmas Event and lights. Each business will get a window sticker showing their support. The least we can do is support them!! Look out for the stickers which will appear very soon. To date the following have donated watch for more over the next few days!. Felthams the Barbers; Travelplanners; Giorgio Pizzeria; The Noodle Bar; Fry and Kent Estate agents; W H Smith; Cutting Edge; Pleasantly Plump; Phone Doctor; Traditional sweet shop; Scrivens opticians; Victory carpets; Coffeeville; Amberley Jewellers; Cox & Co accountants.

WATERLOOVILLE xMAS LIGHTS!!

Just to keep everyone in the loop. The first quote was finally received to put the battery powered lights in the 20 trees in waterlooville town centre (plus Christmas tree) It came in at £750 PER TREE!! After a query on the cost it dropped to £250 PER TREE. Amazing how it can drop that quickly!! That will still be too much. Fingers crossed for next quote! (no motifs this year just battery powered lights

PEOPLE POWER!

  It does work...people power!  At the recent community meeting there was concern expressed at the crossing on Maurepas way.  Overgrown and lights not working properly. Dangerous. Well I can report that the vegetation has been cut back and the lights have been reset to be better synced. Big thanks to County Councillor  Ann Briggs
