Lost Property - Child's wallet
During the Funday last Sunday (3rd July) a wallet and money was handed into us for safe keeping having been left on the Blackwater Valley Countryside stand. Unfortunately there was no form of identification inside the wallet so we cannot contact the owner, but the contents of the wallet lead us to think it belongs to a child. If you are the owner, parent or knows who lost the wallet please contact us by email or telephone 01252 330966 and leave a message. We will endeavour to return the wallet to its owner as soon as we can if contacted.
Funday 2011
Our Funday 2011 once again enjoyed spectacular weather and drew a steady stream of visitors throughout the day, despite other local and national events.

Many, many thanks to the groups above for helping with our Funday, and lastly we must not forget our sponsors, for without the help of local businesses and organisations we would at times be unable to do some of our conservation work and stage events like the Fun Day. Our grateful thanks go to them -
