Swindon Mesothelioma Awareness Day
Last Friday people gathered at the Mesothelioma Memorial Garden in Queen's Park to remember those affected and to raise awareness of the disease. Representatives from RWK Goodman and HASAG spoke, alongside former Queen's Park Community Council Chair Stan Pajak, Deputy Mayor of Swindon Cllr Gayle Cook and MP Heidi Alexander.
South Swindon Parish Councillors Pat Herring, Linda Kasmaty, Janine Howarth, John Firmin and Sam James attended to pay their respects. Cllr Howarth took part in releasing ceremonial doves as a small act of remembrance.
Our industrial history means mesothelioma has had a significant impact on our local community. It was moving to see so many people come together to remember those affected, show their support and help raise awareness of the disease.
Thank you to RWK Goodman and HASAG for bringing people together for such an important event.

It also highlights the volunteers needed to help support youth sessions and would love to get more volunteers to help out.

We’ve continued to develop the Queen’s Park hothouse area for you to enjoy.
New railings were installed on Friday as the latest improvements to the area, to make it safer and more accessible. They’ve been designed in a similar style as the railings on the bridge from the small to large pond to help them fit in with the surrounding park.
Phase one of the hothouse redevelopment was completed earlier this year, and the space area is now open to the public. Moving forwards, we’re looking to add tables, chairs and planters to make it a more welcoming, enjoyable space for you.

Reminder: New Youth Space opening at Broadgreen Community Centre this Thursday.
Parents and Carers: Bring your child along. This space is for children ages 11+. This is a chance for children to make this space their own. Members can tell us what they want from a youth space and what they'd like to see. If your child is in need of something to do on Thursday evenings from 5:30 - 7, bring them along. We have pizza, arts and crafts, fun and games, and great listening skills.
