Hillingdon Neighbourhood Watch is warning of fake emails that appear to come from your chosen university which offer you a grant from the Department of Education. Don’t click on anything: full explanation here:

We received a pic from South Swakeleys Neighbourhood Watch of its Queen’s birthday celebration. This made us wonder whether to share it and your own pix here. With the Festival Week closely following the Royal celebration, June seems like a perfect month to try the idea out. Here’s the SSNW pic:
Thanks to Diana May for this one.
We welcome good quality pix, ideally 500px wide. (It keeps the mail attachment reasonably small.) We won’t accept anything overtly commercial (but a collection of people seated outside, say, Maison du Soleil would be okay). As long as there’s a community-interest aspect to it.
You obviously need to own the rights to any image used and give us permission to use them.
Start rummaging and snapping. For simplicity, send them to ickpic@tebbo.com
We look forward to hearing from you!
This Saturday (18th) is Gala Day in the Vyners School grounds, from 1pm to 5pm. It’s always a lot of fun with interesting stands, demonstrations and funfair attractions. It also gives you a great chance to mingle with your fellow villagers (and, no doubt, outsiders too).
If you get a moment, why not drop by the Ickenham Residents’ Association stand? We’d be delighted to meet you, answer your questions and hear your views on what we should and shouldn’t be doing.
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday.
This week’s crop of new applications are in postcodes UB10 8… then AN, HF, HP, JH, PN, QG, QJ and RT. Map link.
Hillingdon Neighbourhood Watch provides an excellent place to catch up on crime news and advice. It provides useful links to resources, including prevention products and services, including the occasional special pricing (or free) offers. We’ve just added it to the Useful Links section of this website.
