Hi neighbours,
The nationwide fire risk has skyrocketed after a long dry spell, even in parts of the country not used to extreme fire danger.

I have a barely used (*blush*) Exercycle for sale. It has an extra large seat. Must be collected.

Water is available for residents impacted by this outage to collect outside 53 Severn Street.
The number of properties in Severn Street affected by the water outage has been reduced from 250 properties to 70 (between 15-77 Severn Street).

However, those left without water to their homes will have another significant wait until service can be restored – the estimated time of repair is at least 8 hours.
Two nights in a row without water is unacceptable and very disruptive. We’re sorry for the inconvenience that this has caused and understand that it’s just not on.
Replacing the aged water pipe is currently scheduled to begin in March 2020; we’re looking into what can be done to speed the process up.
Celebrate our amazing marine mammals this National Sea Week (29/2-8/3) with Project Jonah at Sustainability Trust

Together we’ll measure out a blue whale, compose whale songs, and practice saving a stranded whale (in this case Lionel, our inflatable friend!).
Project Jonah is a marine mammal welfare charity that exists for one simple reason – marine mammals desperately need our help. They are faced with many threats, including plastic pollution, fisheries by-catch, and climate change. Project Jonah’s work involves coordinating trained volunteers nationwide to help at whale strandings, as well as raising awareness of human impacts on these animals and marine education programmes.
This event will show how incredible these creatures are, and focus on raising awareness of issues facing them and some practical ways that we can help.
This is a koha-based event with all proceeds going to Project Jonah
