Ashburnham Triangle Association

We're upping the standards at the Street Party - vegetarian food on one barbecue, meat on a separate one. Or we were until we discovered the second one we had didn't run on gas. Must we go back to the bad old ways? Or has anyone got a barbecue they'd be happy to lend the street party this Saturday? We'd take good care of it. This is the Triangle's own party. Hardly anyone else knows about it. We've delivered some news letters in a few surrounding streets, but not many. This is a chance for adults as well as kids to use their own climbing wall. Outsiders won't see you. And adults - the bouncy castle's yours from 12noon to 1pm. You can go up the climbing wall then too, but you can do that anyway any time during the afternoon. And when it comes to the raffle prizes, the adults win hands down.

We are looking forward to a great street party on Saturday 16th September. We are however in desperate need of volunteers to help out for an hour or so on the day. If you can spare an hour or more on the day please email Chris Ward .

The next craft session in the Ashburnham Arms will be one week earlier than usual, on Thursday September 14th

Our Safer Neighbourhoods Police team have notified us of a recent attempted distraction burglary in Ashburnham Place. Two males posing as refuse bin collectors attempted to gain access to a property. Fortunately they were disturbed by an upstairs tenant of the address who was streetwise and savvy, ensuring they got  away with nothing. There have been quite a few incidents of bogus callers and bogus workers operating in the Triangle area recently. Please remain vigilant at all times, if necessary ask for ID and check it is genuine. If you do see anyone acting suspiciously or have any doubts contact the Police on 101. David Scales/Tina Pugh Security Hub
