We know many people in Eastleigh and Fareham have struggled with isolation and loneliness this past year in particular.
To cheer them right up we are holding a Christmas Tea for them at Eastleigh Museum to meet one another and enjoy a bit of festive cheer.
We made a little film for you to watch and share all about it:

Please sponsor a place for a lonely person to meet with others at a special
Christmas Tea at Eastleigh Museum.
To give text 1COMM10 to 20085 or pop a tenner in an envelope labelled Christmas Tea Appeal into One Community office, 75 Leigh Rd, Eastleigh, SO50 9PQ
Christmas waste & recycling
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.

Day Activity Centre Christmas
The festive season is nearly with us and our Day Service teams have been planning plenty of opportunities for fun!
All of these pictures were taken at our central day activity centre.
There was plenty of music, singing and dancing and a wonderful treat when the children from local school, The Crescent came along to sing.
We have got some beautiful cards made too!
If you would like to do something different with your time, you could volunteer to help in the day service. If you would like more details or to chat through how we’d support, encourage and equip you to do it. Ring Julia on 02380902457
