The Diamond Jubilee Committee is very happy indeed to have been granted £250 from Rother District Council. Brede Parish Council have match funded this with another £250 and together this money will go towards a new, locally crafted Diamond Jubilee commemorative bench on Broad Oak recreation ground, created and designed by Chris Allum of Broad Oak.

We have raised an additional £480 so far from various local groups including The Brede Players, The Red Lion, Dogwood Cottage camping and Brede Farmers Market as well as personal donations from members of the Parish.

If you would like to donate please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . All monies raised are going towards publicity for the Jubilee weekend, a flower display on the green over the Jubilee weekend, a Jubilee tree and any money left over will be donated to local charitable causes.

Sedlescombe -  190 for 4               Brede CC - 81 all out
 
Cold. Wet. Miserable. Welcome to the opening fixture of the Brede CC cricket season. Squaring up against Sedlescombe, their now traditional opening day opposition, with a new skipper, previously new roller and the new ball Brede took the field in enthus...iastic mood. Despite a relatively major mowing problem that morning leaving a half cut square, the strip looked in pretty good condition and ready to trouble both chin and ankle alike.
