Kath from Northampton


“Neighbours. Everybody needs good neighbours. With a little understanding. You can find the perfect blend.”
(Feel free to sing along in your heads to this one.)

I have the best neighbours. Kath is the best of the best. A sprightly octogenarian she still has the same warm smile on her face as when I first met her nearly two decades ago.

Winter, summer, autumn or spring you can be assured that it is the same greeting that you’ll receive from this wonderful woman. I am a relative newcomer in this area -not even my nearly two decades can touch Kath’s sixty plus years in the street.

It’s fair to say Kath has seen it all and still she has a friendly word to share with all she meets. If I had to move anywhere and choose the perfect neighbour then I’d move here and choose Kath and her husband.

Every street, community and town should have copies of Kath for themselves. Yes, I am showing off because I’ve been blessed with knowing such great people so close to home. In fact, they make home feel more like home.
