Lyn was instrumental in mounting a successful campaign to ensure the former Alderman Blaxill School was retained for educational and community use. The icing on the cake was a brand new school which is now flourishing.
The team also campaigned for defibrillators as the ward had none . We are pleased that we can now boast at least five. The one at the Co-op is the most used in Colchester which proves the need for these potentially life saving devices.
We support the Foodbank and regularly deliver food supplies to residents . The team regularly organise litterpicks and cut back foliage as and when needed.
