The Friends of Ray Mill Island are delighted to announce the
resounding success of their inaugural Community Open Day, held on Sunday 23 rd June 2024.
The event marked the official launch of the Friends of Ray Mill Island, an initiative aimed at
preserving and enhancing the natural beauty and community spirit of this cherished local
landmark.
The Open Day was a vibrant celebration of community collaboration, drawing an impressive
crowd of visitors from across Maidenhead and beyond. Attendees had the opportunity to
explore a variety of stalls and activities. There were over 20 various stalls hosted by local
wildlife organizations, physical fitness groups, charities, and small businesses, each
showcasing their unique expertise and services. Thanks to Wild Maidenhead, Wild Cookham,
River Rangers, Wildlife Garden Awards and Berks & South Bucks Bat Group.
Thanks also to Tikki Training, Maidenhead Hockey, Team Jashan (Bollywood exercise
class), Cycling without Age Trishaw. Special thanks to Paddleboard Maidenhead and
Fotini Wellness raising over £250 that afternoon through SUP Yoga. The
event fostered a spirit of giving and community support, with many visitors
expressing interest in volunteering. Thanks to Aqua Box, Maidenhead Bridge Rotary
Club, Brett Foundation, Filling Good, Green Skills Library and Good Gym (who
helped paint the Mural wall on the back of the toilet block). Small businesses from the area displayed their products
and services, offering everything from local artists to homemade, delicious treats.
This provided a fantastic opportunity for attendees to support local entrepreneurs and
discover unique offerings. Thanks to Face2Face Maidenhead, Purista Artisan, Vidya’s
Kitchen. Suchi Art was there creating Henna tattoos for those interested. Happy Days
Mural are excited to embark on their creative project on the back of the toilet block.
The success of the Community Open Day is a testament to the strong community spirit in
Maidenhead. The event was very well supported by our local Independent and Lib Dem
councillors (Cllr. Joshua Reynolds, Cllr. Richard Coe, Cllr. Karen Davies and Cllr. Geoff
Hill). The Friends of Ray Mill Island are committed to continuing this momentum, with plans
for future events and initiatives aimed at enhancing the island for the enjoyment of all.
“We are thrilled with the turnout and the positive response from the community,” said Nivi
Bhide. Tara Crist said “The support and enthusiasm we’ve seen today truly underscore the
importance of preserving Ray Mill Island as a space for wildlife, recreation, and community
gatherings. We look forward to many more successful events in the future.” Both Tara & Nivi
are the co-founders of Friends of Ray Mill Island
