Anyone Used The Essex Pass Discount Card??

Hey All,

Found this and thought it may of been of interest to some of you.

We are very excited to announce that Essex Mums is now in partnership with The Essex Pass: a fantastic new way to enjoy 2for1 deals at some of the best attractions in Essex.

How does it work?

The Essex Pass is a plastic membership card which you order online. When it arrives, you simply show the pass when buying tickets to a day out, paying for your sporting activity or arriving at a restaurant. Some attractions/restaurants require pre-booking so you’re best to check the offers carefully online (www.essexpass.com) first.

Offers can vary but typically most are available 12 months a year and generally 7 days a week, which means you can get great discounts even on weekends and during school holidays!

What are the deals?

Dramatic Rescue On The River Crouch at Creeksea - Caught on Camera - Burnham on Crouch

Dramatic Rescue On The River Crouch at Creeksea


Mrs Deb Fairhall was walking her pack of dogs along the river at Creeksea when she caught this dramatic river rescue as it was happening.

Mrs Fairhall said in her statement to the This is Burnham news team that if there hadn't of been a quick rescue effort, she always carries her mobile phone with her just in case of such emergencies.

But admitted she most probably would have phoned her son to get the coastguards number as she still loves her old Nokia which has no access to Google, but as we was chatting she did get her son to enter the coastguards number in for the next time.

So to all who walk or use the river please enter Burnham COASTGUARD 01621 776331 into your phone you never know when it may come in useful.

Limited tickets still available for Race Night at Burnham Ramblers...

You may have said yourself this is a lovely town but could do with more things going on?

I've said the same thing on many occasions...

The money raised from this will get re invested into the events fund aiming to bring better acts and entertainment with each event held, put towards maintaining the nets and training equipment of the club with a percentage going to charity, as well as a charity raffle purely for our chosen charity.

It will be held on the 8th of November so two weeks from now and will be a good night for all.

The evening will include 8 races. Films from actual races that have taken place in previous years, which may include both flat or jump races are shown. Each race is randomly selected. Prior to this you will be able to place bets as to which horse will win, betting on one, two or more horses; this adds fun and excitement to each race! Half of the total amount taken in bets is paid back in prize money to the lucky gamblers who bet on the winning horse.
As well as betting on each race you can also add the excitement of becoming a horse owner. Horses for the first 8 races are sold in advance (the fifth and tenth race will see the horses auctioned off to the highest bidders on the night). Horses are available to buy and for just £5 as owner you can name your horse (it will be listed in the race card, and if your horse wins the race as the winning owner you will be able to celebrate with a cash prize of £25.
