Wellbeing Week is in full swing in Littleport, says columnist Lyn Gibb de Swarte.

But in order to celebrate this ‘world-wide’ initiative, Littleport hardly had to implement anything extra to its usual weekly full calendar of activities except for saying it is part of the WWW!

You can pick up the extensive programme of events (until June 30) from the Littleport Leisure Centre reception or online.

Not every village or town in England has had a film made about one of its shops and shown on Sky TV a few times.

Called ‘The Adams Family Project: The Shop that Time Forgot, it was made by Cambridge Filmworks’ Adam Giles, a short track and fen speed skater.

Built in1893 by ironmonger H and J Cutlack, its original manager was John Henry Adams from London who later bought it. It was also the first importer of speed skates in 1920.

The shop still retains its Victorian interior, and you can enjoy the ambiance when you attend the free family art workshop, materials supplied, at the now Adams Heritage Centre on Main Street opposite the Co-op and Post Office this Saturday (June 29) from 2-4pm. There will be printing, clay modelling and painting led by Adams Art Group.

On Sunday June 30, you can take a close look at a display of old artefacts in an event that has been specially organised to round off the week.

A free afternoon with refreshments from 2 to 4pm – and at 3pm David Porter, a trustee and its last proprietor of 30 years, will be there to talk about the shop, some mysterious objects and Doris Adams too.

In its usual wellbeing mode, Littleport Leisure hosted the 238th parkrun and the 6th birthday of the weekly Littleport parkrun last Saturday.

142 people came from far and wide to participate including the Woozby Nerberts from Cambourne – and to eat cake from birthday cake hat-wearing Cathy Gibb de Swarte and biscuits, home-made by runner Lucie Melen when they finished.

This Friday (June 28), historic hostelry the Crown Inn has the popular StepBack Duo from 9pm til late.
