These monthly emails aim to keep you up to date on Croydon’s hottest happenings - with a dose of love for local businesses and charities on the side.

If you’re reading this (well, if you’re reading ALL of this) you must be a paid subscriber. Thank you for joining us! Your support of our mission to spread positive news about the Borough is much appreciated.

Full disclosure - we’ve thought (and overthought) this monthly newsletter. So, in a new take of the classic phrase, we’re not going to “start as we mean to go on”, we’re just going to start! And we want to hear about what you want - it'll help shape what we do over coming months. Let us know what you'd like more of, less of, and any other ideas in the comments (or email us on info@eastcroydoncool.co.uk).

For now, keep scrolling for our look at the month ahead…
