The CGRA have been doing an incredible amount of work
to make their community better in the last few months.
• We held a successful bulb planting on the Green back at the end of
October. We mostly planted this time snowdrops and bluebells. At the same
time we held our Pumpkin competition and had had a very high standard of
decorated pumpkins.
• In December thanks to Jana we had some fantastic Advent windows to light
up the dark nights
• In January we held our winter Social with a speaker from Beckenham Place
park who brought us up to date with what has happened so far and what
will be happening in the very near future.
• In February we had a pick up litter morning in the area managing to pick up
several bags of other people's rubbish. We all then went back to have
breakfast at one of our members houses
• March saw members out on the Green again with their frying pans ready for
the pancake race. The children were brilliant and more than happy to have
several go's at tossing the pancakes. Many thanks to Alice for cooking the
pancakes!
