Croydon and Surrey
Message from
the Chair
We hope you’re all enjoying the summer
so far – over the next few weeks your Area
Panel will be out and about supporting
focus days in your local area.
Your views are very important to us - we use
the feedback we collect at these events to
ensure we are delivering excellent services.
We’ll be offering help to sign up for
MyAccount, giving advice on jobs and
training and also the welfare
reform. We hope to
meet lots of you there!
Gardening project
We’re looking for volunteers to help
our Dagmar Road allotment continue
to blossom.
We’re looking for people who can spare
some time to support local residents in
planting and maintaining vegetables and
other produce.
The garden and allotment in Croydon was
officially opened in Autumn 2013.
If you can help please call our
Community Development Team on
0800 121 60 60.

Refurbishing
community space
AmicusHorizon staff, suppliers and
contractors have come together to help
refurbish an empty commercial unit in
Whytecliffe Road South, Purley.
The empty space has been transformed into
a community centre.
Staff and contractors have donated time,
materials and money to deliver the project.
It’s due to open in July.
We’ll be consulting with residents as to what
they’d like to see in the centre – watch this
space!
