Update – 10 Year Celebration of The Eastrea Centre

Good to meet with Proffesor Ford again who was the driving force to get the Eastrea Centre built, many obstacles in the way and financing eventually funded mainly by the National Lottery.

Cllr Dee Laws was there to officially honor Mr Pete Sennett who was a trustee of the Eastrea Centre and was very involved in getting the War Memorial placed in Eastrea.

Eastrea Councillors Bob Wicks and Barry Wainwright attended.

I am happy to have come back with 3 raffle prizes – thank you.
I am also proud to have been an original donor to the Eastrea Village Centre.

40+ years in the making, with many obstacles in the way…..(lets no go there).

(I am informed today that it initially started in 1945)

Today marks the 10 years since the Eastrea Village Centre opened – what a wonderful asset for the village and surrounding community.

Of course ‘We’ Eastrea Boys & Girls had to do with the then small church for our parties….
Some you may recognise. I am on back row one with the pretty zig-zag pullover, 5th from the right ….(no face shown)
