It’s our wedding anniversary today – 49 years – where have the years gone.
A very ‘challenging’ year especially for Connie looking after me.

Christmas is just around the corner, and we have a bumper crop of interesting stories this month.  From keeping your home safe over the festive period, to celebrating our wonderful volunteers, to our free webinar on Domestic Abuse. 

We hope you find it all useful and interesting. We’re always keen to know what you think. 

Our next newsletter will be shared on Monday 12 January. We hope you enjoy a warm, safe and neighbourly Christmas break – see you next year!

We received over 350 nominations this year, so these winners really are the best of the best. To all the wonderful volunteers who were nominated this year, thank you for the amazing work you do.  Read their stories on our website.

The actions are all intended to be accessible, so people can do as many as they are able to. From wearing orange to raise awareness, free training to help people safely intervene when they witness harassment. Find out more and download the actions on our website.

Doors open 18.30 for 19.00 start.

U.S. President Will Derringer and British Prime Minister Sam Clarke have a not-so-friendly and very public rivalry. However, when Air Force One gets shot down over enemy territory, they find themselves on the run and working together to thwart a global conspiracy that threatens the entire free world.

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

Donations are much appreciated to offset operating expenses.
Card transactions now available if preferred.

If you value “cinema” events in your Town and would like them to continue, please try to come along.

Your smiling faces when attending encourage us to continue!
We really value your support!

‘If’ you are ‘interested’ here is part of what is contained. (There is a lot of reading?)

What wonderful thanks ‘we’ have received from many who use this nice peaceful area.
Whilst there today, some 6 dogs and their owners did a circuit and mentioned how good it was for them and their doggies.

Kudos has to go to Eamonn Dorling and my wife Connie who spend many hours maintaining the area. There is a small group ‘ The Friends of Platinum Wood’, the last event was poor weather and only Eamonn and Connie turned up.

Whilst there a couple approached me to enquire of donating a tree….

Hi Roy,

At Greenpeace, our strength comes from our shared passion for creating a greener and more peaceful world.

Greenpeace’s movement for change started in 1971 with a small team of activists. Together, they sailed for a nuclear testing site in an old fishing boat. Their actions led to the end of nuclear testing on Amchitka Island, Alaska — which is now a sanctuary for sea otters, bald eagles and other wildlife.

Our team doesn’t fit in a fishing boat anymore — we’re now a global movement of 72 million people! But our victories are the result of our combined power.

That’s why we want to hear from you about the issues that matter to you and to our movement for change. So can you spare 3 minutes to answer this quick survey?

Here’s the first question: If you had to pick one issue, which is most important to you?

Ending plastic pollution

Protecting forests

Ending air pollution

Stopping climate change

Creating ocean sanctuaries

In the decades since we were founded, our people-powered movement has won battle after battle in pursuit of a greener and more peaceful world — from protecting ancient Amazon forests from soy farming to achieving a ban on plastic microbeads.

But there’s still much more to be done. Whether it’s tackling climate change or protecting the biodiversity of our forests and oceans, we need everyone on board to confront the challenges ahead.

That’s why we’d love to learn more about the issues you care about – can you spare three minutes to answer a quick survey? 

Here’s the first question: If you had to pick one issue, which would you say is most important to you?

Ending plastic pollution

Protecting forests

Ending air pollution

Stopping climate change

Creating ocean sanctuaries

We’re looking forward to reading your answers – thank you so much.
