Play Area Development Update

June 3, 2011

Our next planned event is on Saturday 25th June at the village hall between 10am and 12pm.

All young people (and adults of course) are invited to a Play Area Drop In Morning, at which you can have your say regarding the new play area. There will be games for our younger visitors, drinks and cakes and the chance to contribute your views and design ideas for the new play area. Please drop by and “play your part” in creating an exciting new play facility for our village.

We are also currently waiting to hear if we have been successful in our grant application to WREN.   This effort has been supported by many individuals and organisations – in particular  a big thank you to the Uptonogood organisers who are donating a large proportion of the net proceeds, to UVHAT and the Parish Council for their donations and to Blewbury School,  the Brownies and to all the children who have offered their support.  This local support and fund raising really does significantly strengthen our case when we apply for funding, and we welcome comments and contributions to the scheme.
