Latest News We
had a great Jubilee themed community art and craft fete at the end of May which
over 50 people attended. Admission, participation and refreshments were free
thanks to support from the National Lottery Community Fund. This
event was followed by jubilee themed art and craft activities at the Leigh on
Sea Jubilee Picnic. Although it rained most of the time the event was well
attended and over 100 people joined in with our activities. During
Whitsun half term we provided free Jubilee themed art and craft activities
for families at Chaucer House family housing scheme and at Leigh on Sea
Community Centre. This
year is our 30th anniversary, and, after a two year gap, our
Annual Exhibition of Works is returning on 30th June to Hadleigh Old Fire Station. We are open to the general
public from 12 to 4, please drop in and see what we do. We managed to provide services
throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. At first we delivered bags of craft items
to our regular attendees, then started to run sessions via Zoom and made some
instructional videos. Financially we managed to keep going
thanks support from the National Lottery Community Fund, Southend
Community Investment Fund, Southend Emergency Fund
and many others. Since we fully re-opened we have
started three additional sessions. We are running a weekly all year after
school for Barons Court Junior School in Westcliff
and several blocks of sessions for residents of Sanctuary Housing and for a
group for youths with special needs. If you would like
