Call to get Harold Hill Groups Online
Harold Hill Festival has recently signed up to go on to the Havering Community in Action Portal. This is an online directory that enables people to find local groups in the area. This can be a boost to groups in terms of raising their profile and getting more hits for their websites. In Harold Hill particularly there has been a push to get more groups listed on there recently and we support anything that promotes local community activities.
To find out more visit http://www.haveringcommunityinaction.org.uk/
You can download a form from the website which you can use to sign up. Or alternatively you can call HAVCO on 01708 742881
This is a joint initiative between London Borough of Havering and HAVCO who are both Festival partners.
