We hope all our residents enjoyed Christmas.

Some festive events Heather and Richard have organised or been involved with over Christmas included:
Wednesday 4 December – there was a very enjoyable carols and sing-song event at the Sutton South Hello! meeting, Christchurch hall, Christchurch Park, from 2pm to about 4
Saturday 14 December – Friends’ Meeting House, Cedar Road, “Second Saturday Tea”, from 2pm to 4, Richard brought a band (members of the Phoenix Concert Band, Sutton) to play Christmas carols and a few Christmas medleys. Richard played trumpet in a ten piece wind concert band. This event was a great hit.

Richard went on to play the trumpet again at the Straw Cafe in Manor Park, carols and mince pies for the Mayor.
Wednesday 18 December – Sutton South Hello! Christmas party, with folk dancing organised by our good friend Councillor Simon Wales, was greatly enjoyed by a large crowd.
We hope everyone is well prepared for the cold weather with the Council’s grit distribution initiative and “cold room” scheme. All the many grit bins in the Ward are full.
