Croston Connects | Croston Old School

On Wednesday 7th October, the Old School will be buzzing from 10.30am to 3.30pm as we host our first Wellbeing Day.

It’s a chance to meet Croston groups, the NHS and local support organisations, try out some new activities, enjoy a slice of cake in the pop-up café, and find out how you can get involved as a volunteer.

If you belong to a group that would like to be involved, please send Andy an email at admin@crostonoldschool.org

The day is being organised by Croston Together and Croston Old School who are working in partnership to make Croston healthier and more connected. We’d love to hear your ideas and help to achieve this.

What's Planned?

Below is a list of groups who have committed to run a stall or activity on our Wellbeing Day. This will be updated weekly until the big day!
