Do you run a community organisation? Would it help if infor-
mation about it could be provided to potential new members?
Swindon Council community worker Pam Pixton, with help from The
Link, is collecting details of groups in West Swindon so that she can put
• i . people in touch with each other.
People who moved into the area in the 1980s will remember Pam or
one of her predecessors tramping through the mud to their front door
with a booklet of useful information on where essential services could
be found, and lists of local organisations.
Although the 'welcome service' ceased, The Link has carried on the
Community tradition of publishing contact names, addresses and telephone num-
bers for medical services, schools, councillors and churches in our
September edition in the West & North section.
Dividend Pam's aim is to add to this information with a list of community groups
covering all ages and interests. However it will not be published widely
