Community Connection Magazine
Community Connection is our community-focussed magazine full of local news, events, volunteering opportunities, jobs and training, and puzzles. It began in 2020 as an activity booklet for members of the community isolating due to the coronavirus, but is now so much more.
Our Community Connection magazine is released a few times a year. You can pick it up from venues across the borough in community hubs such as libraries, community centres, food banks, Orleto and Maggio Lounges, South Essex College, Towngate Theatre and we try to deliver it to every charity shop in the borough. We also have copies at the Happy Hub in Basildon Eastgate where we hold our weekly Community Exchange Drop-in sessions (Wednesdays from 10am-1pm). You can also pick up at copy at one of the many local event throughout the year, where we always try to have a presence.
Below you can find Community Connection Digital, which is best read on a desktop computer, laptop or tablet. You can also scan the QR code on the front of a magazine.
If you would like us to include something in a future issue please get in touch. It could be a feature on your organisation, a volunteer opportunity or job, or perhaps an upcoming event, for example.
