Welcome to our Residents Association websiteWelcome to our HWRA website. We use this to share information on upcoming events and meetings and to share useful contacts and information about the local area. We also publish our meeting minutes on here.
We are really keen to hear what you would like the Association to do and also what you would like to see here on our website. Please contact us at [email protected] or via our Facebook page with any suggestions. If you are unable to attend our meetings but would still like to get involved in what the association is doing then do please contact us at the address above. Heatherside Book SwapHeatherside Book Swap is now open Friday-Sunday 9am to 7pm in the grounds of Heather Ridge School (adjacent to the main front gate). The shed is now very well stocked with books and jigsaw puzzles and we are in need of some more eager readers to come and take some books away.
Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to help us with this project. |

Important message from the HWRA CommitteeUnfortunately at the 'Meet the new Police Commander' event one of our committee members experienced some extremely nasty verbal abuse from a local resident. We would just like to reiterate that we are all volunteers with no political affiliations or links to either the Borough or County Council. Abuse like this will not be tolerated and anyone who behaves in such a way will be asked to not partake in any future events that we organise.
The Heatherside Ward Residents Association was founded in 2015 to add a positive contribution to life on Heatherside. We have, and will continue to organise events such as the Heatherside Christmas tree, community quiz nights and the Scarecrow Festival. We will also continue to arrange meetings where local residents can raise issues of concern and engage with local Councillors and other relevant officials. We hope that this positive contribution is recognised by the vast majority of the local community and continue to welcome offers of help and support from anyone who would like to be involved. |
