What is "Know Your Neighbours"?

"Know Your Neighbours" is a grass-roots community group in Seal, near Sevenoaks in Kent. The group is made up of anyone in the village who wants to get involved - individuals, clubs and societies, businesses, church and schools, parish council,and many others.
We organise local events through the year - fetes, street parties, Christmas events etc. - and we hold social gatherings, just so that people can get to "know their neighbours". There's no "committee" - anyone who turns up for meetings is welcome to help in any way they are able.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW MORE, OR BE ADDED TO THE EMAIL LIST, contact Marion Gilchrist , who coordinates the group, or Anne Le Bas, who maintains this blog.
This Blog will be archived from July 7 2024 following the retirement of Rev Anne Le Bas who has maintained it. Know Your Neighbours will continue however. Please email Marion if you would like to know more!

Olympic Torch celebrations - Help needed

As you will all be aware, the Olympic Torch will be coming through Seal on Friday 20th July at approxomately 12.10pm. The Parish Council have organised a celebration of this event on the recreation ground for all the local children, residents and visitors. The Know Your Neighbours Group will be selling teas, coffees and cakes from the pavillion, and we will be needing volunteers to come forward to help with the setting up, serving and making refreshments, and clearing away at the end of the afternoon.

If you can offer any help with making cakes, or any of the above, please could you e mail me to say what you can do. To make sure we have sufficient cakes, if you could let me know what you would be prepared to donate, this would be a great help please.  Nicky Harvey and I will be happy to take any of your donated produce on Thursday 19th.  Also, if you could say what sort of time you could help between 11am and 4pm, this would help us to set up a rota.

This will be a truly historic moment for Seal, and it would be great for as many of you as possible to be part of this afternoon.

I look forward to hearing from you, and many thanks as always for your support for Seal KYN.

Marion.
