FoC Active October - Draycote Water Sponsored Walk

Sunday 3 October 2021

Last year we made some lovely memories during active October. This year we are returning to one of our favorites, Draycote Water. We would love to challenge your children and you their family to make a sponsored trip around the water, on the path. 

Children are encouraged to walk, cycle, scoot or whatever suits them! Please note they must be accompanied by an adult who remains responsible for them at all times. 

We would love to see your photos of the day (chair@friendsofcrescent.co.uk).

Please download the sponsorship form here.

FoC - Bag2school Collection

  • Our next Bag2school (www.bag2school.com) collection is Thursday 23 September 2021. This has changed from the date published in the calendar.

Bag2school is a fundraising scheme which collects unwanted textiles and sells them to importers and textile manufacturers in many countries of Eastern and Western Europe, Africa and Asia - all of benefit to the circular economy. 

This is an excellent way to get rid of all the unwanted clothing etc you have been collecting during lockdowns!  After collecting the items they will weigh them and present FoC with a cheque.

A list of the items they will collect can be found here.

Weather permitting, the playground will be open to drive your vehicle in and unload any clothing bags from 4pm to 5pm (3pm - 4pm on the front laen) on Wednesday 22 September, the day before the collection.  Bags can be dropped on the morning from 730am.
