We have now submitted a further two grant applications for funds to improve the Play Area in Upton.
I wanted to say a big thank you to all of the "under 18" residents of Upton who have sent back either their questionnaire form, with or without sketches, or a response to say they support the scheme. Our applications for grants won’t be taken seriously unless the vast majority of under 18s show that they are keen, so the support is vital if we want to raise money to go ahead.
So far, I have had responses from approximately 65% of the young people in Upton. It’s definitely not too late to send your form / questionnaire back to us if you haven’t already done so and we would love to hear from you, particularly if you have any ideas.
We are trying to improve facilities to include exciting equipment for a wide age range!
We have tried to make contact with all of the young people in Upton but if for any reason we have missed you out, please let me know and we will make sure that you have the chance to be included.
Sketches that we’ve received are available to view on the village website, and will also be on show at an ‘open day’ event that we’re planning in order to collect ideas and explore the siting of the playground.
Many thanks. Ros Caffyn 01235 851605
