Moving along with the late summer Drift


Hello Everyone.  This is another friendly-neighbour blog-cast announcement!  From the buildup and anticipation of this year's Magdalen-Augustine Streets Celebration (info point: Oct. 19th), we realise that we need the help of all sorts of volunteers.  However, in particular, we need volunteers with interests in the work of heritage projects. Whether it be with historical accounts, research and its presentations, or, maybe with oral history initiatives and the weaving of tales of the good ol' days, threading them with the new. In any case, would you like to help?  

The streets are open and we need volunteers for the week running up to the Saturday Celebration to help with the gathering and recording of memories from the public, taking and collecting photos, and collectively organising a patchwork of stories! Or perhaps you have an idea of how to recognise community and cultural heritage, to highlight the special district of Norwich 'O'er the Water'.  Either way, jump up and throw-in!  We need you, 'cause memories are for sharing and stories are for telling. 

Oh! oh... I hear some of you saying, 'that history stuff is a crashing bore', and, 'besides, I live in the here and now…!'.  Well, for you naysayers of history and stories, how about a little volunteer action in the form of live street performances, hosting a table with small crafts, or, maybe some pavement place poets?  Of course, we wish for everyone to be involved and all are welcome!  So find a place...there's plenty of room, and the Streets are for Celebrating! 

Let us know:
