JumbleTrail - RM12

Jumble

On Sunday 23 July from 12-4pm, Havering will be hosting its first Jumble Trail.  A resident in Saunton Road is organising the community 'yard' sale.  Residents register their address and it is added to the trail which will display all the participating houses selling their treasures/crafts/art/cakes/teas/homemade goods etc.  People in the community and those passing through can then travel around the streets, having a rummage, buying a bargain, eating some homemade goodies and getting to know others in their neighbourhood.  The roads anticipated to be included are Saunton Rd, Mansard Close, Chestnut Ave, Laburnum Ave, Acacia Ave, Albany Rd,Barton Rd and Hartland Rd.
So register your 'yard'/stall, have a clear out, make some money and make new friends! What's not to like? Any questions, email the organiser Nicola
