I attended the Community Association of New Eltham AGM last night and was pleased to see it was quite well attended despite being a very cold and dark evening.  The Association, born out of a possibility the Library would be closed, now enters its 13th year - yet I am told some people still don't kno

w that C.A.N.E. exists.

For those who have received support from the Community Chest or the

 Helping Hand Fund, C.A.N.E. has been able to help dreams come true.  They exist for the community and contribute to the

 community  The coffee shop is a focal point in the community and their events programme is as broad as it is ambitious.

f you know where New Eltham Library is, you know where C.A.N.E. is - drop in and support our local community association.  I only wish we had something similar in all our local communities.
