launched across the city on Monday 7 June.

As part of the awareness-raising week, information about the
vaccinations available to protect children and young people from
potentially serious illness has been sent to local Children's Centres,
nurseries, pre-school groups, pharmacies and libraries.

Communities Against Drugs, part of Brighton & Hove City Council has been working in Brighton and Hove over the last five years to identify and address the impact drugs and alcohol have on local communities in partnership with residents and local services.

In response to residents and workers concerns, Communities Against Drugs, ru-ok?, Albion in the Community, The Crew Club and Can Control have been working with a group of local young people to design a cannabis information 'graffiti poster', aimed at their peers. The poster will be displayedh on the bdill board on the WhitehawkCo-op, on the corner of Henley Road and Whitehawk Road between the 10t and 23r May for everyone to see.

Chris would like to use the bus to visit the new Whitehawk  Health Centre and Library but unfortunately it does not go near enough

Free over 18's 'Parkour' taster sessions
Parkour is a physical training discipline that allows people to overcome any obstacle within their path, by adapting their body movements to fit with their surroundings.

It is a non-competitive, physical discipline of French origin in which participants run along a route, attempting to negotiate obstacles in the most efficient way possible. Skills involve jumping and climbing as well as other bespoke parkour manovers.

The object of parkour is to get from one place to another using only the human body and objects such as railings, steps and walls as aids to assist their movement and travel.

Parkour is often seen practiced in urban areas because of the diverse environment public structures provide.  

If you would like to take part in a FREE parkour workshop, then contact Emma Greenough on 01273 852304 or This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to reserve your place.
