We’ve publicly been a bit quiet but a lot has been going on in the background over the winter, take a look at the update from Bromley Council 😊. Hopefully we’ll have a design to share soon 🤞 We’d love more fundraising volunteers or welcome independent efforts, so do get in touch 🙌 🥰

Donations gratefully received 🥰

Thank you for all the generous donations this year towards the Bec Rec paddling pool renovation. We’re just £300 shy of our 10% Christmas target of £5,000 if anyone would like to donate and help us reach it. Merry Christmas Beckenham! 🎄 www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/paddlingpoolbecrec

We were delighted to be at the Beckenham Christmas Lights switch-on yesterday evening, with the Friends running a stall for the Paddling Pool Fundraising Project

There were cupcakes and cookies for sale, a plushie tombola, lolly game, and gingerbread decorating.

£540 was raised for the Paddling Pool project - a fantastic total!

We’re grateful to everyone for their ongoing support. If you’d like to make a donation we have a dedicated fundraising page here: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/paddlingpoolbecrec

We are delighted to be joining some other fantastic stall holders at the Beckenham Christmas Lights switch on event. Please do come along and support it! We'll be hosting a cuddly toy tombola, cupcake stall and gingerbread man decorating stall, all proceeds raised from our stalls will go towards the Paddling Pool Fundraising. A big thanks from Friends of Croydon Road Recreation Ground to the Christmas Lights Committee for letting us take part.
