Earlsdon Festival rescued
Following last month’s news that the annual Earlsdon Festival would not take place this year because of a lack of volunteers, ECHO is pleased to report that the popular event is now back on.
Members of Rotary Club of Coventry Phoenix will now work with the Festival Committee to allow the May Day event to go ahead. There will also be a programme of music and arts fringe events during April and May, as in previous years.
More details will be in the February issue of ECHO, which will be in the shops by Saturday 30 January.
Cat Missing from Stanway Road
Rachel Merry is desperately looking for her cat Molly in the Stanway Road area of Earlsdon. She is a small butterfly tabby with areas of ginger and white. She was last seen on the evening of Sunday 10 January. She has a reflective silver collar with 3 bells on it and she is micro-chipped. She is 18 years old but still looks very kittenish with a pretty face. She was fit and well with no signs of illness. To be missing for any length of time is very out of character and she usually comes when called, never appearing to wander very far.
If you can help contact Rachel at 43 Stanway Road, CV5 6PH, or phone 07910-486540.
Beechwood Avenue petition extended
The petition for a safe crossing on Beechwood Ave near the junction with Rochester Road has now been extended till the end of February. Paper petitions are also now available.
If you would like to host one please let the petition organiser know via ECHO.
You can still sign online. Thanks.
