Community Support Team
With thanks to The Armed Forces Covenant Trust for the funding of £10,000 in support of the ‘Bringing the Wyton Community together project’
RAF Wyton Station Community Support Team in conjunction with Wyton on the Hill Parish Council and members of the Community have arranged many events from October to March 2021 for the Community of Wyton.
The Team have been working tirelessly and persevering in order to facilitate events; whilst following government guidelines to ensure there was something for everyone and those involved were safe. We were able to achieve our objective to get the Community involved in some way, including those who were self- isolating and those residing within SFA at Wyton, Brampton and SLA Wyton.

PUMPKIN CARVING COMPETITION
Carved 23rd-28th / Judged 29th / Winner announced on the 30th
The team delivered 150 free pumpkins to the Community so they could get creative with their carving skills. Photographs were then emailed in and judged by the Station Commander and the Chair of the Parish Council. The top 3 of Genna Gilbert, Sam Maynard and Jennifer Rodriguez received a prize. An important part of the funding is to support local businesses, which is why we purchased these from Freshfields Farm in Benwick. With over 60 entries, the following were chosen as the top 3:
HALLOWEEN HUNT
26th-31st October
During half term, a Halloween Hunt was organised at Wyton by Kat and Kirsten with over 230 children participating. he Halloween hunt involved participants to walk throughout the whole estate and collect the letters displayed in numerous windows. These letters told you where to collect your prize! Brampton had fewer participants which totalled to around 30, but were supported by Michelle, Sam and Rikki so they could be included. Prizes were given to all those who took part.
