Thank you for publishing news about the Safe Haven Animal Rescue in Charity Spotlight. I’m in the process of moving and got in touch with them as I had items I thought might be of help. A lovely man by the name of Rory was able to make use of an assortment of things from my late husband's workshop, thus enabling the volunteers of Safe Haven Animal Rescue to improve the centre for the animals. I know my late husband (as I am) would be delighted to know that the goods have been put to some use instead of ending up in a skip. I wish SHAR all the best and hope to be able to 'pop in' and support any events that might occur in the future.

This is music to our ears Sandra – it’s great to be able to repurpose items, especially if they are put to great use for others. I’m sure your husband would be delighted and I know that SHAR are appreciative also.
I am so happy to be reading so much about people and communities in Bromley in your magazine. I received the free edition of the magazine and your team is doing a great job because I have been glued to it for an hour!
Tejaswi Benjamin Great to hear Tejaswi – and we’d always encourage ideas on feature suggestions too!

SIDCUP DA14 6NF Thank you to the teams at Christ 020 8309 6016 www.the-bedpost.co.uk Church Charterhouse Rd & St Nicholas Leamington Ave who run the community larder several times a week. They all work tirelessly to collect excess food from major outlets, eg Waitrose, Greggs, Lidl & many others thereby reducing food wastage & redistributing the food to many who need it. It's a brilliant community initiative and I really appreciate the work of all concerned.

In response to the poem 'Covid' by Judy Douglas, published in April, I thought I'd have a go myself with a nod to William Wordsworth:
I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills When all at once I saw a crowd And thought to myself, Damn! There goes the social distancing.
Jim Brown
Well done Jim! I think many of us can relate to this.
Thank you for creating something fun (find the Easter eggs) in your last issue. I had to take my daughter for a hospital appointment and she was very nervous. I saw the magazine in the hospital and we read it together. It was fun for her to find the Easter eggs and made her nerves go completely. So, thank you for the distraction - you really helped an anxious mum and a nervous daughter.

Thank you to all of the lovely people on Sevenoaks Way who offered to help me with my shopping, packing and wheeling my trolley when my baby was very upset. She is three months old and decided that Lidl’s was not the right place to have a nap. Although I said ‘no’ to offers of help, I was deeply touched that you all even asked. Kindness really does go a long way.
