Hi Everyone
This week an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) was erected outside the Community Centre – thanks to a generous donation from a local, and the work of the Churton Park Community Association and Wellington Free Ambulance.
Just a reminder that we have Neighbours Cards in the Centre – why not pick up a few next week and make a point to get to know your neighbours and share contact details over the Christmas break?
CPCC is closed from next Friday (20th), reopening on Tuesday 21st January. For what’s coming up next week, please click here.
