June is busting out all over!

JUNE IS A BUSY MONTH!

Our social programme focussed on the Crate & Apple continues to grow apace. You may have missed it but there is now a Knitting Group which meets there at 10am every Monday morning. If knitting is your thing then do come along and knit with the kneighbours.

Saturday 4th June: The First Saturday in every month is our WGRA Residents’ Coffee Morning. Make sure to join your neighbours for coffee at the Crate & Apple Saturday 4th June from 10.00am.

Sunday 12th June: The Westgate Street Party. Work is well advanced on organising the 2016 Westgate Street Party. The charge this year is £5 per adult present, payable to Sandy Young at no 15 please. Make sure you save the date and do let us know if you are able to assist with this important event in our annual calendar. We will be celebrating the Queen’s 90th birthday with a hog roast and live music. Bring your own food, guests and chairs as usual!

Sunday 19th June at 12pm  will be the Official Opening by the Mayor of Chichester of Brewery Field, our new green space behind Henty Gardens. Bring a picnic, visit lots of community group stalls, get to know the Field! You access it via the car park at the back of the County Archives office in Orchard St. All three local residents’ associations are involved in this venture. Use it or lose it.
