Sandbed Road, St Werburghs

"I love the sense of community on my street and in the local area. Every Sunday my street closes so that the kids can play in the street. I have very friendly neigbours and we help each other out. There is a street WhatsApp group and every summer we have a street party. I know everyone who works at the local corner shop (Sonnis) and it feels like part of the community e.g. they judged our cake baking competition at the Street Party last year. It's also great living so close to Mina Road park."
