Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

Like many years, I will be attending in person the AGM of Citizens Advice Rural Cambs.
this will be my 12th attendance.

https://www.citizensadviceruralcambs.org.uk/

Whittlesey Town Council have for many years been very supportive of The CAB, and make a considerable contribution to their attending most weeks (Fridays on appointment) at our Council Offices.
They have been extremely sucessful in getting benifits that many people were not aware they were entitled too. One couple received over £17,000 in back payments.

You must first call them in order to get an appointment – The Town Clerk can not arrange this.

                         “Save The Cinema”- cert 12A
                                    (Comedy / Drama)

Save the Cinema is the true story of Liz Evans, who lives in Carmarthen South West Wales,
who starts a campaign in the 90s to save the local Cinema/ Theatre (the Lyric Cinema). With the help of Richard Goodridge a local politician they get Steven Spielberg to show a premiere of Jurassic Park at the Lyric in a bid to Save the Cinema.

You are all invited to come along to our warm building for a top-class
movie screening plus refreshments served during the interval. No charges
are made for admission, however we are fundraising to improve disability
access and our appearance at the front entrance so all proceeds this
winter are going towards this scheme and we ask that any donations you
make are as generous as you can afford. Thank you!

Whittlesey War Memorial today 11th November 2023

Liverpool MN Memorial

Today The P&O Cruise Liner ‘Arvia’ held a 2 minute silence onboard.

This Saturday and Sunday we mark REMEMBRANCE. All are welcome to join us for an Act of Remembrance around the War Memorial on Saturday (Remembrance Day) at 10:50am in Whittlesey and Coates. There are also a number of Acts of Remembrance which you might like to join us at on Sunday.

If you are able to collect and donate any ADVENT CALENDARS or CHOCOLATE SELECTION BOXES for Whittlesey Emergency Food Aid then I know they will be a real blessing to some within our local community who are most in need of them. We will be collecting Advent Calendars in church up until the 19th November so they can be distributed by WEFA ahead of the 1st December.
We can collect any Chocolate Selection Boxes until later in December.
