Playsafe returns to Round Hill
First, I’ll introduce myself: I’m Robyn, a new(ish) member of the Round Hill Committee who moved to Upper Lewes Road in March last year. I’m so grateful to be part of such a friendly community, and I'm excited to start connecting with everyone and giving back to the neighbourhood by organising the Round Hill street play and social events this year.

There was a good turnout for street play and the plant sale on Sunday 31st May 2026. The Round Hill Society congratulates Robyn for organising the event, Dominic for the plant sale which raised £225, Chris for the yummy treats, and Gary and two friends of The Round Hill Society for marshalling.
- Sunday 30th August 2026 summer session
- Sunday 1st November 2026 Halloween
- Prizes for best fancy dress, carved pumpkin, and our annual doughnut-bobbing competition.
Street Plays have been moved to Richmond Road, which is easier to close off and safer
- Aiming for three this year - the first in conjunction with plant sale
- Biggest challenge is getting marshalls (attend in a high vis jacket for half an hour), who can protect against any rogue cars
- Information about the events is shared in The Reporter, Facebook and the Round Hill Society's website.
