Over the festive period there is much more rubbish left out for the bins than normal.
Each district we support at One Community has slightly different services and guidelines.
Here are the guidelines and service details for areas served by Fareham Borough Council.
In the area served by Eastleigh Borough Council, here are the details.
In the early part of 2021 One Community will be looking at improving our communities environments and ways of making our lives more ecologically sustainable.
Sam & Georgie are raising money for our Eastleigh Young Carers. They’ve done an amazing job so far but need more recycling.
All details on the poster.
Thank you all and a big cheer for Sam & Georgie!

It is mental health week and we are looking at getting more funding and volunteers to help with our young carers, at risk of mental health.
We are really lucky in the Eastleigh area to have some amazing young people. Some of these are young carers. They spend a lot of time with a person who has a significant impairment and this effects their lives in many ways.
Because of the extra pressures and worries involved in life, together with other factors, they are at greater risk of mental health issues.
To combat these issues and increase happiness, our young carers team run various events and offer family support. There is; a young carers choir, youth activity groups and holiday time activities. Sometimes our young carers project gets a donation of Easter eggs, a day out or Christmas hampers. Our supporters are amazing, especially our One Community bus passengers, the ROTARY and LIONS.
Ideally would like to have more spaces to support more families. This will improve mental well-being and increase the chances of young carers to reach their potential.
So a young carer and her grandad have come up with a FANTASTIC idea to raise money for us.
Here is our Facebook post explaining all about it:
#eastleigh #youngcarers #mentalhealthweek we run young carers activities for yr3-yr13. Improving mental health as we go. To help us do some #Recycling of

Young Carers GROUP bank account
I was with some friend the other day and when I was speaking about EYC and the money going directly to the E Y C bank account they said so the money goes directly to each of the Young Carers Bank Account (so the was answer NO)?
Last month I’ve modified all my documents and emails saying E Y C group bank account.
Please keep supporting this great group of young people.
