Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

A4 Cycle Training - Fenland v3

If you’re a small organisation, charity, or community group, and you would like to know more about cyber crime and how to protect yourself, Cambridgeshire Constabulary’s cyber security advisor, Nigel Sutton, is offering a free cyber escape room challenge. 

The escape room is a fun and competitive way to learn about the basics to protect your organisation from cyber crime. Working in small teams, you take on the role of a police cyber detective. After watching a short video, you have 30 minutes to solve a series of puzzles… will you be the winning team? 

At the end of the session, Nigel will talk about key security issues you encountered during the exercise, including how to create a strong unique password, the importance of two-step verification and understanding phishing. 

For more information, and to book the escape room challenge, email: CyberProtectCambs@cambs.police.uk

Plans For Major Reservoir 2026-01

Whittlesey Community Movie Event @ Queen St Church – Saturday 21st March
Door open @ 18:30 for 19:00 Start.

Shining Through” is a 1992 romantic thriller film directed by David Seltzer. The movie is set during World War II and follows the story of a young woman named Linda Voss, played by Melanie Griffith, who becomes a spy for the Allies.

Linda, a half-Jewish secretary working in New York, is recruited by the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) due to her fluency in German. She is sent undercover to Berlin, where she poses as a cook in the household of a high-ranking Nazi official, played by Michael Douglas. As she navigates the dangerous world of espionage, Linda must use her wit and courage to gather intelligence and help the Allied cause.

The film explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the moral complexities of war. It delves into the personal struggles and growth of Linda as she faces the challenges of her mission and the emotional turmoil of her relationship with the Nazi official.

This is the last event of this film season. We thank you for your support and hope you have enjoyed the selection of films.

No admission charges are made for these regular winter events with refreshments served during an interval.

Donations are much appreciated to offset operating expenses.
