Battle of Britain Bunker events and opening times

Attached are events at the Battle of Britain Bunker over the next few weeks. We have a programme that will hopefully be of interest to everyone from family activities, concerts, yoga sessions and interesting speakers! This weekend we have Caroline Paige talking about her extensive RAF career at 11.30am in our Auditorium.

Mulled wine and minced pies will be available to buy during December at Daisy’s café. Our gift shop is also stocked with lots of great present ideas for all the family.

 

 

We hope to see you and a Merry Christmas from the Battle of Britain Bunker!

Best wishes,

Battle of Britain Bunker, Wren Ave, Uxbridge UB10 0GG

Some sad news

It is with very great sadness that we are letting you know that Lesley Crowcroft passed away earlier this week.

She had battled with ill health for a long time and most particularly in recent months.  She had had to endure so much but continued to work tirelessly for our community through her dedicated work for the Eastcote Conservation Panel and the Friends of Eastcote House Gardens.

For many years, as planning representative for ERA, I worked very closely with Lesley on local planning applications and other planning issues.  Her knowledge and support were invaluable to me, as was the friendship between us which grew over those years.

She will be so missed.
