St Marys Church will have refreshments, including tea, coffee and cakes, along with some music events.

A fantastic group of ‘Voluteers (again) – putting on a mainly ‘free’ event over many venues throught the town, with lots of activities, music and classic cars to name a few.
See their official website.

Can you help with our witness appeal?

An 80-year-old man has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after a collision between two cars in Coates, near Whittlesey.

The collision, involving a white Vauxhall Mokka and a black MG3, took place just before noon today (12 September) in Wisbech Road, at the junction with Kingsland.

Both drivers were not seriously injured but the passenger in the Vauxhall, an 80-year-old man from Peterborough, was taken to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, in Cambridge, with serious injuries where he remains.

Anyone who saw what happened or has dashcam footage of the collision, or the moments leading up to it, can report it through the force website or by calling 101, quoting incident 193 of 12 September.
