The Barnet Eye Advent Calendar - 3rd December

Today is day three of our Barnet Eye Advent calendar. 

Today's little gem is a bit of local history presented by local historian Mark Amies. Mark worked with us to produce a film about the history of Airco in Colindale. Airco was the worlds biggest maker of Aircraft in 1918, now there are a few traces left. Mark explores these. 


And for our good cause today we have the Mill Hill and Burnt Oak Good Neighbour scheme - http://www.thegoodneighbourschememhbo.com/ - If you haven't heard of them, this is what they do

SUPPORTING THE ELDERLY AND DISABLED IN MILL HILL AND BURNT OAK
The Good Neighbour Scheme for Mill Hill and Burnt Oak enables volunteers to provide neighbourly support to elderly and disabled people living in Mill Hill and Burnt Oak in the Borough of Barnet. Our services address the issues of fragility, loneliness, the moving away of children from the area and bereavement.

It is a really great charity and especially at this time of year plays an invaluable role in our local community. If you have a few hours, or if not a few pennies, please help them out.
