AT a time when people are saying community spirit is dead it was wonderful to see more than 150 people turn out for the Cowleigh Road Big Lunch, combined with the generosity of local business and residents who donated their time and money.

Thank you to Roy at Ringway who sorted out all our barriers and signs, the Malvern dancers, local artists and flower arrangers who entertained us.

Well done fellow organisers and helpers – it was worth the hard work.
