We continue to work closely with Boom Active and pleased to say Heart of Sidley Partners have agreed to fund spaces at the Easter holiday club at Freedom Church. The sessions are free to Heart of Sidley residents aged  5 – 11 years old. Children take part in a variety of sporting activities set around the day’s theme. The Covid secure sessions are run by qualified instructors.

Heart of Sidley Partner Linda Seddon Said “We are pleased that we are able to provide a little bit of fun for Heart of Sidey children this Easter”.

Throughout the year Heart of Sidley works closely with Boom Active to deliver other youth sessions in the community. To find out more contact the Boom team on info@boomactive.co.uk/ or call 07465 423188.

The Heart of Sidley has awarded £5,000 to the Bexhill Family Collectives Community Nurseries, to support the reopening of a children’s nursery at the former Rainbows site in Turkey Road. The nursery will be relaunched as Dragonflies.

The Bexhill Family Collective, a non for profit community interest company, was set up by local parents Ollie Jeffs, Heather Winchester, Nikki Collins, Ena Osula, and Emily Bowler after East Sussex County Council announced plans to close Rainbows in Sidley and Cygnets in Egerton Park.

The group was able to secure the lease for the site in December 2020 and passed its Ofsted registration. It is now fully staffed and up and running, it welcomes up to 59 families. Its mission is to provide all-year-round care for babies and children up to the age of five.
