Isle of Wight Day is back! The celebration of all things Island is returning this September and Lord Lieutenant Susie Sheldon is determined it will be a weekend of fun, Covid-19 remembrance and thanks to remember. The remembrance will come in the form of a service at Newport Minster to start off the weekend of events on Friday, September 10. Conducted by IW Archdeacon, The Ven Peter Leonard, the service will specially remember the 300 Islanders lost through Covid over the past 16 months. Mrs Sheldon said, “It is particularly appropriate this year we should all get together for Isle of Wight Day.
Community fridges help reduce food waste and provide support for your local community
The idea behind community fridges is to reduce food waste and help support those in the community in need
Reading last week’s Community Action Isle of Wight’s newsletter, produced by Sandy Ciccognani, we see that Coop is supporting local groups who wish to set up a Community Fridge.
The aim is to reduce food waste and provide support to the local community, including other things like cooking workshops and creating allotments.
