Neighbours on an estate came together to have fun and celebrate the 10th birthday of a housing association.

Greenfields Community Housing hosted a Fun Day event in the Templars Estate, Witham, last Wednesday.

Children enjoyed face painting and rolling around in bubble footballs, whilst the adults could speak with neighbours and representatives from Greenfields, Essex Police, Braintree Council and Essex County Fire and Rescue Service.

Arron Samson, Greenfields’ neighbourhood manager, said: "Each event gives us the chance to support our residents in a variety of ways – be it to tidy their gardens, have a good clear-out, get to know their neighbours or just keep their children busy in the holidays.

"We also want to draw attention to all the services we and our partners offer, so they know that we’re there when they need us.”

The next make a difference day will be a community clean-up event in Coldnailhurst Avenue, Lancaster Way and Wingate Close in Braintree.
