Winter safety
leaflets produced by Highbridge Dreamscheme members
 Dozens
of youngsters in Highbridge had a busy half-term holiday, making
winter safety leaflets as part of the town's Dreamscheme initiative.
The
40 youngsters created over 350 'Be Safe This Winter' leaflets
featuring advice on housing, vehicle, road and personal safety
during the winter period.
The
group then visited Highbridge's Asda store where they spoke to
shoppers and local residents and handed out the leaflets, as pictured
above.
The Dreamscheme and Highbridge Community Youth Club joined forces
to hold a Halloween Party at Morland Community Hall when around
50 young people attended, and were kept entertained by a DJ and
plenty of games.
 PCSO
Claire Chambers told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "It's been a busy,
fun week for the youngsters and we'd like to send our thanks to
Sainsburys in Bridgwater who provided us with some fantastic Halloween
decorations."
"Also,
thanks go to the Helium Chameleon, who helped us decorate the
hall with Halloween-themed balloons."
Highbridge's
Dreamscheme involves
young people aged 8-16 taking part in community work in return
for points that can be used towards day trips and other activities.
