WITH the successful launch of Your Stratton on our website we are now looking to set up the next set of community sections on our website.
This time we are focusing on Walcot.
Your Walcot will be for the use of all members of the community in the area - voluntary groups, Scouts and Guides, schools, the WI, Neighbourhood Watch anyone can get involved.
Even if you are not a member of a group, don't worry - individuals are welcome too.
So if you're a keen photographer, are organising a charity fete or are concerned by issues in your neighbourhood, you can add your items to the site from the comfort of your own home.
To explain more about it, the Advertiser is holding a meeting at the Walcot Dome on Wednesday, May 14 at 7.30pm.
So if you'd like to find out more, do come along. Everybody is very welcome.
To confirm attendance or, if you can't make the meeting but would like to express an interest in the project, please feel free to Email the Adver Web Team or call Gill Harris or Stephanie Tye on 01793 501795.
We hope to see you at the meeting!
