This community group is all about bringing together, everything that is great about Longton. We are one of the 'Mother Towns' of The Potteries and are proud.
@Julietannb@planetjedward@RoyalFamily@10DowningStreet The charities getting publicity and so much out of the fact they're Royal and the tourism they bring in, even at such sad times as this, is the need. But I can see that we'll never agree, so we'll agree to disagree. However I'd love for you support charities as much as they do.
@Julietannb@planetjedward@RoyalFamily@10DowningStreet That's why members of The Royal Family have started up numerous charities and support them the best way they can by using their roles to highlight them and people want to help them. Folk don't get what a positive impact they have for charities, but folk don't want to see it
along with their supporters who think it's 'Shocking' or 'Disgraceful' that these volunteers want time off with their families the watch the Queen's funeral. We shouldn't need to rely on volunteers, but we are. So step up & be pro-active.
I've got to say it I'm afraid. These folk jumping on the 'Jedward Bandwagon' really need to think before agreeing with them. Foodbanks are run by VOLUNTEERS. The reason why they might be closed is because nobody else is stepping up to volunteer. Perhaps Jedward should volunteer
@Julietannb@planetjedward@RoyalFamily@10DowningStreet So it's not quite so shocking. I think before folk jump on the 'Jedward bandwagon' they need to think a little. We shouldn't have to rely on volunteers to help keep communities going, but we do. That's it though, they're volunteers who deserve time off. Others should step up.
@planetjedward Why don't you volunteer to help keep the foodbanks open? And ask your followers who are also complaining about them being shut, to do the same? That would be more pro-active.
@Julietannb@planetjedward@RoyalFamily@10DowningStreet I do loads of volunteering for my community, even though my health ain't great and I'm not the one opposed to these volunteers having a day off to watch the Queen's funeral. But thanks for asking.
@planetjedward@RoyalFamily@10DowningStreet The majority of foodbanks are run by volunteers. Just an idea, why can't you volunteer at a foodbank to keep that one open and rally your supporters to volunteer at other foodbanks so that they stay open?
How amazing is he!!!
Some months ago we had this piano donated to our store by a lady in memory of her son who sadly passed, she wanted people to come in and get joy out of playing as he did. And what joy its bringing! #longtonmind#piano#joy#longton#stokeontrent#mymindshop
