With a long street like ours it is not easy to get to know all the residents so a Street Party like the one we have today, will make things a little easier.
Having said that, after a few months ,names may be forgotten and getting in touch after only meeting once is not easy for everyone.
There are other ways in place, so that if you like to share more with your neighbours it is easy and free.
Why not join the Cambridge Skills Exchange (for people in walking and easy cycling distance of Garden Walk)
Currently we have Helene, Liz, Githa, Derek, Gwendolyn, Paola, Karina, Michael and Mark who have been involved in our street, from help with gardening, ironing, baby sitting, baking bread, cleaning windows, giving lifts, help with shopping, sewing, photography, and much more.
If you would like to join us, the more the merrier, just give us a ring (details on the website)
or the Street bank it is free and a great way to share goods, services, get recommendations and help each other. little film
There is a gardening group too. If you wish to get involved in this, again let us know, via our blog.
It is just a matter of signing up.
If you would like to set up a group, for young or old, let the others know and maybe they will join in.
