We may even be able to help you set up your will through local solicitors firm, Knight Polson.
As you should all know by now we are moving. We have some items that we would like to hand over for a reasonable offer.
Here is the fireplace from the Molyneau Room. Would you like it? You would need to come and remove it and it would need to be out before the 26th September 2019 at the latest. Please ring 023 8090 2400 or email info@1community.org.uk with any offers and questions.
We also have nineteen grey chairs they are frayed on the top at the back which someone might be able to just sew up. Again you would need to arrange collection and they MUST be gone by the 26th September 2019.
All offers considered, especially offers from voluntary sector, charities and community support projects.
We are very grateful to the Chandlers Ford Chameleon Theatre Company, based at Ritchie Hall, who have donated the proceeds of their raffles this year, £1,042, to the One Community mini bus fund. Pictured above are Chair of One Community Adrian Hughes and Roger Hester of the Chameleons.
Adrian said: “The work of One Community in providing services to combat loneliness and isolation is vital. We are grateful to the Chameleon Theatre in Chandlers Ford for the donation. The gift will be added to our mini bus replacement fund allowing us to continue to provide a vital service.”
We can hardly believe it either but WOW our very own ‘walking dead’ walkers have raised over a £1000!
Just such an amazing physical achievement and such a great Young Carers project to support.
Please see the poster below for all the details.
Feeling inspired?
Sponsored walking might not be your thing but perhaps you might like to try a pudding night at your WI or men’s group, perhaps a Zumba challenge at the gym or a sponsored tech famine at youth group? Short on ideas? We have lots!
Just email Jean at jroberts-jones@1community.org.uk 023 8090 2400
You can make a donation really easily to One Community. Including on line, in person or via text.
On Saturday 27 July, the brilliant Riverside Concert Band, which is based in Bishopstoke, put on a concert at the Bandstand in Eastleigh Recreation Ground from 12-2pm. The afternoon turned out hot and sunny after a drizzly start, and many a passer-by and shopper stopped to listen awhile. The programme ranged through film and show tunes to classic pop.
The idea was to raise funds for One Community, so a couple of us had collection buckets. We lost count of the compliments, both about the band and One Community, so it was a very pleasant couple of hours listening to some talented musicians – and we raised some money too!
Yes we know it’s the height of summer….but……
