⚽️🌟 A HUGE THANK YOU, EASTLEIGH! 🌟⚽️

What a fantastic day at our World Cup Starter Event in Wells Place!

It was brilliant to see so many families enjoying the free activities, with queues for the football challenges, plenty of budding champions trying their hand at axe throwing, and lots of smiling faces transformed by our talented face painters.

Seeing the town centre buzzing with energy is exactly what these events are all about!

A very special thank you must go to our incredible live performers:

🎤 Billie Jackson
🎤 Arlo Star
🎤 Maddy Lucas

These talented local artists helped create a fantastic atmosphere throughout the day and are all well worth following on Facebook and Instagram. If you enjoyed their performances, please show them some support and give them a follow!

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported another free Eastleigh BID event. Your support helps us continue bringing exciting family-friendly events into the town centre and supporting our local businesses.

We’ll see you at the next one!

🌟 A MASSIVE THANK YOU! 🌟

A huge thank you to all the fantastic children at The Crescent School who listened so intently to our assembly this morning about the work our Eastleigh BID Rangers do to help keep our town centre safe, welcoming and thriving for everyone.

Today we talked about staying safe in the town centre, what to do if you ever get lost, and who you can trust and ask for help.

We discussed the important roles of the Rangers, Police Officers, shop staff, security teams and other trusted adults who are there to help keep everyone safe.

One of the highlights of the morning was giving you all of the opportunity to use our town centre radio system to speak directly to the control room!

You did an amazing job and loved finding out how the radio network helps Rangers, businesses and partner agencies communicate to keep Eastleigh safe.

We were incredibly impressed by your enthusiasm, brilliant questions and the way you engaged throughout the assembly. It was wonderful to see so many young people taking an interest in their community and learning how to stay safe.

You are all now officially our Mini Town Heroes! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

Remember, being a Town Hero is all about looking after your community, being kind to others, making good choices and knowing how to keep yourself and your friends safe.

Well done, The Crescent – you should all be very proud of yourselves! 👏⭐
