The Giant Returns<br />
The Eynesbury Giant returned on the day the Eynesbury<br />
Village Association (EVA) held their second <strong>St</strong> Georges Day<br />
event on Eynesbury Green.<br />
With roundabouts, children’s corner stall and a rock group - t<strong>here</strong> was<br />
something for everyone to enjoy. The focus of the day’s event was the<br />
Eynesbury Giant - alias stilt walker Adrian - however James Toller was one<br />
inch taller. Adrian’s appearance gave everyone, especially the children, the<br />
experience on just how tall he actually was.<br />
The association say they wish to thank the 1st <strong>Neots</strong> Scout Group who<br />
volunteered to erect and dismantle the marquee and also Tesco for support and<br />
sponsorship which extends to their other activities, enabling them to provide<br />
affordable entertainment and a community voice with their newsletter.<br />
• EVA will hold their next community safety evening on June 20 at 7.30pm at<br />
the Church Walk Day Centre w<strong>here</strong> representatives from local agencies will be<br />
present to answer and discuss problems and concerns residents may have.<br />
All Eynesbury residents are welcome.<br />
• Throughout the year, the association will organise social events, table top and<br />
craft sales and an intergenerational meeting. Full details of village happenings<br />
can be found on their website eynesburyvillageassociation.org<br />
Share A Journey<br />
Fed up of forking out - what seems these days - a small fortune in fuel to get to and from<br />
work? Well, now you have the opportunity to cut the cost to your purse or wallet.<br />
The free care-sharing service is a<br />
website provided by Cambridgeshire<br />
County <strong>Council</strong> and the Travel for<br />
Work Partnership called CamShare.<br />
It allows you to search for other<br />
people around your area who make<br />
similar journeys.<br />
Car sharing refers to two or more<br />
people sharing a car journey, rather<br />
than driving their own individual<br />
cars. With car sharing you have prior<br />
arrangements on how to share the<br />
journey’s cost and how to share<br />
driving responsibility. You can arrange<br />
to car share as little or as often as<br />
you like.<br />
Why should you share a car? T<strong>here</strong> are three good reasons.<br />
• You save money: When you car share with someone you agree how you will<br />
split fuel costs.<br />
• Meet people in your community: It is a perfect opportunity to meet new<br />
people, and with over 2,800 members registered with the free online service,<br />
you are likely to find a car sharer nearby.<br />
• Help your local environment: Everyday t<strong>here</strong> are 10 million empty seats on the<br />
UK’s roads. Car sharing means fewer cars on the roads, less air pollution and<br />
a healthier community.<br />
To join Cambridgeshire’s very own free car sharing service, simply register<br />
your journey on camshare.co.uk and contact those people in <strong>St</strong> <strong>Neots</strong> and<br />
surrounding area who share the same journey as you.<br />
