A BIG thank you: Thanks go to Debbie Adlam who stood down as chair of the community association at the recent annual general meeting.

Debbie was a dedicated member of the association and, formerly, the parish council. She chaired the board of trustees whilst the organisation underwent many changes including the occupation of the community centre in December 2011; starting the Rooksdown Youth Club in January 2012 and delivering youth projects in both Winklebury and Popley in 2015. Debbie, along with many others, put hours of work into the community working quietly in the background to ensure events and activities ran smoothly. Michelle Biggs was elected as her replacement.

SINGING A Capella for fun: A new group has been running in the community centre for a few months now and are looking for new members. All abilities are welcome for the Thursday evening group. For more details, contact Andrew Jackson on 07711 004212.
