I met two Heroes from Hadlow Down, Charlotte Ward and Wendy Coleman.
Charlotte is the driving force behind “Happy to Help", a group of about 30 volunteers from Kings Church and various other churches in the Heathfield area. Managed by Charlotte, the Group has been busy picking up and delivering over 400 prescriptions, running errands and getting shopping for people who have been self-isolating.

Wendy is the manager of TN22 Plus Club, which runs bi-weekly at Hadlow Down Village Hall and is tailored to those with memory loss and dementia. The Club runs personalised activities with an emphasis on friendship and fun and offers companionship for people living in rural Wealden. During lockdown, Wendy organised entertainment in the form of music and dancing in the members’ gardens, in a safe way and with social distancing in place. Click here for more information.
