Please Call to Register Your Interest in a Men's Shed in Upchurch

Dear men of Upchurch,

I have been somewhat taken aback by the number of responses to my initial posting, which means that I now have to do something, rather than subsiding back into oblivion.

I have 4 names who have been in touch with me already, but could I ask that any others who are definitely interested call me on: 07966 005248 and if sufficient men respond, I will hold a meeting, hopefully in the pub, to take the whole idea forward.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Men's Shed in Upchurch

Are you a happily retired fellow like me, just looking for a practical, justifiable, defensible place to go during the day?

For a while, I have had floating in the back of my head (where there is a lot of space) the idea of setting up a Men's Shed in Upchurch.

These are places where men can gather to make things, repair stuff, or sit, chat and drink tea. A sanctuary, if you like, from the busy hussle and bustle of daily life. 

Before I take it any further forward, I would like to know if there are any other like-minded men in Upchurch who would be interested in exploring setting up a shed here in the village.

I have no idea where this could happen, but I am confident that if there is interest, then doors will open.

Anyway, enough of my mindless optimism. If you think that you might be interested, please contact me, and we can maybe share thoughts over a drink at the local pub.

Email: ianstride1@gmail.com or you can telephone: 07966 005248.

Thank you

Ian Stride

Upchurch Matters

Help Us Improve NHS 111 - Your Voice Matters

NHS Kent & Medway and NHS Sussex are working together to review and improve the NHS 111 service, and we’d really value your help.

NHS 111 is a free service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It offers advice and support for urgent, non-emergency health issues, whether accessed online or by phone.

To ensure the service works well for everyone, we’re asking people who have used it to share their experiences.

The survey takes just 5 - 10 minutes and is completely confidential. Your feedback will help us:

• Understand what people think of the NHS 111 service
• Identify any challenges or barriers to using it
• Learn how the service can be improved

Survey link: www.haveyoursayinkentandmedway.co.uk/nhs-111

Thank you for helping shape a better NHS 111 for your community.

The survey closes on Monday, 4th August.

Upchurch Choral Society Welcomes New Members to Join Them at September Rehearsals

SINGING IS GOOD FOR YOU!

Upchurch Choral Society are always happy to welcome new members.

We are a four-voice part choir that rehearses on Fridays in St Mary’s Church, Upchurch.

Our next rehearsal is on Friday, 5th September at 7:45pm, when we begin rehearsing for a concert featuring parts of Handel’s ‘Messiah’ on Sunday, 23rd November.

There are no auditions, and while the ability to read music is helpful, it is not essential.

If you are interested, please call me on: 01634 361897.

Thank you
