Sunset Sessions Festival 2024

What a day we had at Harlow Town Park Bandstand! Over 1300 local people enjoyed a day of live music, games & childrens activities! We would like to thank our sponsors for the day – Hunter Security, Dukes Barbershop & Source Fm.

After raising thousands of pounds for Parndon Wood Nature Reserve through Sunset Sessions events since 2019, this festival allowed us to say thank you to so many people who helped us along the way!

Supporting Harlow Food Bank

December 2023 saw us start a partnership with Harlow Food Bank. Customers made a donation for records, CD’s & DVD’s in our Harlow charity shop and then ECCO match fund the amount. We raised £3000 for Harlow Food Bank & are extremely proud to continue supporting the incredible work which they do.

Seasonal Events At Parndon Wood Nature Reserve

For the past 10 years, local families joined us at Parndon Wood Nature Reserve for our seasonal events. Christmas, Halloween & Easter events became famous within the town and we welcomed over 10 thousand of you to these extravaganzas.

Key Stage 1 Biodiversity Education

From 2012 onwards, we hosted tens of thousands of KS1 pupils at Parndon Wood Nature Reserve for their school trips. Activities would include bug discovering, nature trails, arts & crafts, bird watching & den building. The connection we built with local primary schools is still one of our proudest achievements.

Partnership Work

From 2019-2024, we partnered with Roots To Wellbeing CIC to deliver bi-weekly free evening sessions for low income families at Parndon Wood. These sessions consisted of families receiving a hot meal, food supplies and recipes & activities for children.
