Story
Why Carillon Cottage
Carillon Cottage has been serving the community for 20 years and this last year, during the Covid-19 pandemic. It is run by volunteers for the people of Wadhurst and surrounding villages. It covers many needs such as collecting and delivering pharmaceuticals, hearing aids, chatting to people who have isolated, walking dogs, providing wheelchairs, jigsaws and trips to GP or hospitals. If you want to know more about the work we do click here.
It is popular with both young and the not so young. We run Jelly Beans in the garden and hold meetings in the High Street building as well as a welcome smile to all your questions or requests. Click here for our Facebook presence.
Carillon Cottage is the hub of Wadhurst and I care about the people it serves. It is dedicated to serving the community and has managed through some tough times. I CAN do this walk for the wonderful charity so I WILL and with YOUR help, WE can provide some support for years to come.

3 years agoWell, what to wear?! I'm trying to prepare for my 9k walk for Carillon Cottage but the weather is so wild, it's difficult to imagine what it'll be like on the 30th May. I shall walk, come what may, and enjoy my final cup of tea all the more if the weather is as blustery as today! This wind will blow all the debris out of the way to make my path clear and the walk purposeful. Thank you for your generosity so far - I hope I can reach my target with your support!! Funds are vital to the continued and safe work of Carillon Cottage. Thank you

3 years agoLet's hope that Dot has a lovely sunny day for her 9k walk. None of this thunder and down-pours! She will walk come rain or shine in her determined fashion but we can hope, at least, for fine weather. We're supporting so many from Wadhurst and surrounding villages with trips to the surgery, hearing aid batteries, trips to hospital, young toddlers with fun in our garden, help with I-pads, and now small meetings, it would be great to have support for DOT on her quest to raise funds for Carillon Cottage!

I'm Dot, a resident who has been involved with Carillon Cottage for 35 years. I'm walking 9K to raise funds for this wonderful charity in the heart of Wadhurst. On Sunday 30th May I shall start out from the Cottage and walk a route of 9K with a friendly tea break half way!
