Cheryl Allen

It is with great sorrow that I write to tell all who look at this page that the LRA has just lost one of its most energetic and imaginative members. Cheryl was so active in our ranks that she will be impossible to replace. Her ideas got the Open Gardens going, the Litter picked, the Nat West planters prepared and watered, the Newsletter written, the Race Night tickets sold and the LRA January party fed and watered. She did all this with steely determination, a colourful flair and a bright smile. Her aim was always to include as many people as possible so as to build up the strength of the Local Community here in Leatherhead. She succeeded, raised the profile of the town and sent a clear message to the Council that this is our town, we are the stakeholders and we will work to preserve it, despite the efforts of those outsiders who seek to frustrate us.
She will be sadly missed but her spirit and beauty live on whenever we hear laughter, whenever we have a sunny day and whenever we enjoy beautiful flowers.

Caroline Brown (Chairman)

Cancellation of Meetings until October

Our AGM for 2020 should be on the 6th October. In order to keep members in touch without having to go round delivering sheets, it would be appreciated if those not yet on my email list (i.e. never get any email notification from me) could let me have their online address. Use “Contact” on this site. (With thanks to those who have already given me this information). I usually send out about 8 communications a year. However, we are still hoping to be able to send out a hard copy Newsletter at the beginning of August. Caroline Brown, Chairman.

The chamber of Commerce is offering all businesses operating in MV Free Membership for a 6 month period in order to help them expand their contact base. For more details, please refer to the Chamber website: www.leatherheadchamber.co.uk
