October Forum 8th October – Change of location to Romford Central Library

Due to the upgrading of the audio and visual systems in the Council Chamber  we are having to move the meeting to Romford Central Library.

The meeting will still start at 10:30.

Please note there will only be around 65 seats at the library so it will all be on a first come first served basis.

If you come too early you may find yourself helping us put the seats out as we will be doing that ourselves before the meeting starts.

Please let any friends or colleagues know, especially those who do not use the Internet.

Pinney’s Great Balloon Race a real success – Have you found a balloon?

balloonrace

Pinney Talfourd Solicitors released over 600 balloons at Upminster Cricket Club during their great charity balloon race on Thursday in a mass of purple across the sky.

Local residents and fellow businesses donated to Pinney Talfourd’s charity of the year Bertie’s Battle in return for a balloon tag. Support was fantastic and the event raised over £1,700 as well as lots of smiles from children who also got to take away a balloon.

Each tag was attached to one of the many balloons that took flight on a westerly wind towards Romford. They are now relying on the lovely local community to get in touch when they find a balloon tag to tell them where it landed. All successfully landed balloons will be mapped and the owner of the balloon that travels the furthest will win a prize. Tags have been returned from the South Coast and one from France! All landed balloons will be mapped on an interactive map displayed on their website. So if you bought a balloon make sure you check to see if yours has landed yet! www.pinneytalfourd.co.uk
