EASTER services: A quick reminder about the following times for services at Immanuel with St Mark's during the Easter weekend.

The Good Friday Service of Reflection begins at 6.30pm, while on Easter Sunday, a Celebration Service with Holy Communion is at 10am.

Both services will be in the church rooms at St Mark's School, Danebury Road.

BLOOD donors: The Blood Service van will be at the community centre next Tuesday, for anyone wishing to donate blood.

CALLING young people: Following all the recent publicity, there has been a focus on young people in the Hatch Warren area.

Even the sternest critics would have to admit that there are few activities for them here and very few places where they can go without being seen to cause a nuisance.

The borough council is due to be going out to consult soon on what general facilities people would like to see in Hatch Warren, which could be a chance to make the case for some youth activities.

Meanwhile, the community association is also asking for young people to come forward and tell them what they would like to see happen here.

If you are a young person and have ideas on what activities or facilities you would like in Hatch Warren, then please come forward and have your say - the community office can be contacted on 811262.

HAPPY Easter: I would like to wish everyone who reads this a happy and relaxed Easter weekend, with plenty of chocolate!
