Just before the weather gets too cold we can just remind you of what a great event the Heavitree Community Association in Heavitree Park was and that luckily August Bank Holiday Monday saw glorious sunshine.

People flocked to the Fun Day in droves – Labour had loads of visitors to our stall doing the quiz and picking up jelly beans with chopsticks. Any child who could pick up at least one jelly bean got a free chocolate or other sweets. The quiz theme – of guessing the road name from which photos of Heavitree Church Tower were taken – was hugely popular.

Our main prize of £20 of Co-op vouchers was announced over the PA system to the entire Park. All the money we received in entrance fees was donated to Hospiscare. At times we were so busy there was hardly any room in our gazebo for us!

We would like to thank Heavitree Community Association for organising a wonderful event  and all the other organisations and groups  who took part and look forward to next years fun day.
