On Freedom Rd we held several workshops over the Easter holidays. Thanks to Helen Albans, Helen Stathers and Vicky Romegeoux for giving up their houses for the sessions! They were a great success, producing metres and metres of lovingly hand crafted bunting, enough for ourselves and enough to send abroad. It was a great way to get to know each other better (kids and adults), relax, have fun and share creative ideas. We enjoyed it so much we ended up putting on two more workshops in May. Thanks to everyone who took part.

The arrival of the parcels was extremely exciting- after months of communicating by email we were recieving our street decorations, the hard work of residents in our twin streets, something beautiful and very tangible and the vital ingredient to our street parties.
