Cystic Fibrosis cuts lives in half, and research into finding a cure for this crippling genetic disorder needs constant funding if young sufferers are to be given the opportunity to enjoy the length and quality of life they deserve.

On July 6th at the Riverside Arts Centre there will be an evening of fun, food, music, dancing and entertainment aimed at raising money for Cystic Fibrosis Research. Admission is by ticket only, and since the number able to be accommodated at the Arts Centre is limited, it has to be a case of first-come, first-served.

Individual tickets cost £15, or a table for 8 people costs £100.

More than half the available tickets are already spoken for, so anyone else who would like to have a good night out on July 6th while supporting the cause should contact Gerry Cook at This email address is being protected from spambots.

The following email from our local police has just been received by LOSRA and it is reproduced here for the attention of residents:

I am writing this email to inform you of recent suspicious activity.

In recent months Sunbury has been the target for burglaries. A recent method for burglars to see if a house is occupied is to simply knock on the door. When a door is answered they will tell the occupant that they are looking for someone in one instance it was a doctor and in another instance it was a Mr Hughes, once the door is opened they make their excuses and leave, normally along the line of "I've been sent to the wrong address" or something similar. In many cases the person or persons are wearing high visibility jackets to look official and may say they are working for the council, gas or electric company.

If you have an encounter like this please call us and let us know sooner rather than later. The quicker we know that a suspicious person is in your road we can find them and ascertain their reasons for being in the area and knocking on doors.

They might be completely innocent however police attendance could also be the difference between finding a known burglar in our area or having a burglary occur and a distressed victim.

Thank you,

PCSO Phill Wrighton 15007

Surrey County Council will be hosting a public meeting at Spelthorne Borough Council, Knowle Green, on Thursday 13th June at 7pm.

The meeting will begin with a presentation by SCC, followed by a question and answer session chaired by Richard Hewitt of the Shepperton Residents' Association.

Residents will be aware from the extensive coverage given to the Eco Park on this Site, that its proposed installation is a matter of great controversy within our local community. If you plan to attend and to help ensure there is space for all those interested, you are asked to contact SCC's waste management team on 03456 009 009 or email: This email address is being protected from spambots.

All residents are urged to attend.

The following email has been received by LOSRA from the London Irish agent appointed to oversee the Hazelwood development and will be of interest to all neighbouring residents;

"I am writing to provide a further update as to progress on site:

Progress to date has been good and we are in fact slightly ahead of schedule. The following activities are underway or complete (please see attached photos):

• Site fencing - including protecting the public footpath
• Demolition of the driving range is complete, with 50% of the clubhouse now demolished too
• Topsoil stripped back to pitch formation level on the first three pitches

Starting next week we will be importing the topsoil and there will be an increase in traffic movement, with approximately 30 lorries entering and exiting the site each day.

I'm pleased to say, that to date, there have been very few complaints; those we have received have been addressed quickly. I hope that the web-cam will go live next week and I will provide you with the address when it does."

If you have any queries or concerns please do not hesitate to contact LOSRA through our Website.

This powerful and moving true story of Violette Szabo is set to make its stage debut on 20^th to 22^nd June at The Riverside Arts Centre, Sunbury.

This is the new stage adaptation by local award-winning playwright Geoff Buckingham, and will be performed by The Manor players. It tells of the courage and character of World War Two’s most decorated woman, and her colleagues, who made huge sacrifices to fight Nazi tyranny.

Says Geoff “ We look upon this as more than a play. It is a mission. There was a wonderful book, and film, about Violette in the 1950’s, entitled ‘Carve Her Name With Pride’. We include some fresh material, from detailed subsequent research, and we also touch on controversial aspects that have since come to light. We present it as a story told to a schoolgirl in the modern day, but with flashbacks to wartime. That way, we believe the play will appeal to young and old alike. There is some great music from Edith Piaf, Vera Lynn, Marlene Deitrich and Glenn Miller, plus super acting from a large and talented cast of local favourites”.

20-22nd June at The Riverside Arts Centre, 57-59 Thames Street, Sunbury on Thames, TW16 5QF. Air conditioned theatre. Tickets £10. Box Office 07771 458696 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. More information at www.manorplayers.org
