News the local
Dear Readers
Summer holidays are here so do have a great time if you are off to relax for a week or two on the beach. If you are staying at home then have a browse through and see who can assist with some of those jobs you intended to do or just have a good pampering! Whatever you do and whoever you use from the local Oracle please don’t forget to mention where you found them. Thank you to those who sponsored Anna in the British London 10K in aid of The Bridge Trust who are based in Tonbridge and support the single homeless of Kent. There is still time to donate to this great local cause if you wish to. https://www.justgiving.com/Anna-Marshall7/ Don’t forget that each edition can be found on our website with more information on many of our advertisers and news of local events. www.thelocaloracle.co.uk Anna & Jane Suite 23, 10 Churchill Square Business Centre, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4YU TEL

Supporting Bereaved People in West Kent
Have you suffered a personal bereavement?
Are your weekends lonely? We also meet on
Are you trying to cope with those horrible dark days that follow? Are you experiencing loneliness and isolation? Do you need somewhere to go and somebody to talk to? If this is you why not join one of our social groups for bereaved people. We can offer companionship, peer support, outings and day trips. We have 8 monthly weekday lunch meetings in Tonbridge, Tunbridge Wells, Paddock Wood, Hadlow, East Peckham and Pembury.
ALTERNATE SATURDAYS AND ALTERNATE SUNDAYS FROM 2.30PM - 4.30PM At AGE UK, Forsythe Hall, Bradford Street, Tonbridge. We hope that this weekend group will support those who are unable to access the weekday lunch groups and those for whom the weekends are the worst time.
For more information about any of our groups please visit our website. www.friendstogetherbs.org or phone 01732 360328
