The 2nd Reepham Scout Group will again be delivering Christmas post over the weekend of 17–18 December.
 
Bundle your Christmas cards together along with your payment (25p per card) and take them to either Johnson’s Newsagents, Spar Supermarket, Meloncaulie Rose, Reepham Library, Kerri’s Farmhouse Pine or Reepham Hair Salon.
 
The Scouts are unable to deliver anything other than cards; delivery in the Reepham town settlement area only. The last time for posting is midday Saturday 17 December.
 

Polish people in the Reepham area are invited to become involved in the newly-formed Norfolk Polish Heritage Group, which is creating an oral history of the Polish contribution to Norfolk from the beginning of the Second World War.
