HEART CHARITY<br />

APPEALS TO<br />

COMMUNITY TO HELP<br />

BEAT HEART DISEASE<br />

The British Heart Foundation (BHF) is<br />

calling on the people of Ingatestone and<br />

Fryerning to help accelerate the fight<br />

against heart disease by starting a new<br />

community volunteer group in the local<br />

area.<br />

Around 8,200 people across Brentwood and the local area are<br />

fighting a daily battle with heart and circulatory disease. Each year<br />

these devastating conditions claim the lives of more than 197 people<br />

alone.<br />

The nation’s heart charity is calling on the local community to take<br />

heart and join the fight against heart disease by starting up new<br />

community volunteer groups across the region and raising vital funds<br />

for heart research.<br />

Community volunteer groups are the face of the BHF in their local<br />

communities. From running fundraising events to supporting schools<br />

and local businesses and organising collections, they are a fantastic<br />

way to support the charity’s vital work.<br />

community volunteer.<br />

EAST HANNINGFIELD ANNUAL ART<br />

EXHIBITION AND SALE<br />

This is an annual charity event to raise funds for our village hall and<br />

sports facilities.<br />

It is held in East Hanningfield village hall (Post code CM3 8AE) on<br />

Saturday 22nd September from 10.00am until 5.00pm and Sunday<br />

23rd September 10.00am until 4.00pm<br />

It will be well sign posted.<br />

The adult entry price is £1.50, children free. Wheelchair access and<br />

parking are available.<br />

Artists from the region enter a variety of work in different media<br />

including photography, fabric and embroidery.<br />

There can as many as 700 items displayed on walls with also a<br />

range of portfolios i.e. work that is unframed and displayed on tables.<br />

These are a great way to buy a lovely piece of art and have your<br />

own choice of frame.<br />

There are usually as many as 100 plus artists involved. The<br />

exhibition is of an excellent standard and has a wide range of appeal<br />

as well as prices for all pockets. Some of our artists also have a<br />

selection of their work as cards. We have a resident artist at work.<br />

It is hoped there will be a few select craft artists displaying their work<br />

in our upstairs room, attached to our library loft. We will be holding<br />

our 3 monthly book sale as part of the art exhibition. There is a huge<br />

selection of good quality, second hand books at rock bottom prices.<br />

There is a stair lift to enable easy access.<br />

The WI will be running a café for refreshments.<br />

Come and spend a pleasant hour or two with us, taking refreshment,<br />

and enjoying some talented artists’ work and with a chance to find a<br />

good book or two! What better way to help us raise funds!<br />
