Updates on fundraising efforts for new playground
A funding grant of £30,000 has been provisionally awarded through the Lancashire
Environmental Fund (LEF) towards the refurbishment of the parish council owned
play area. This grant in addition to other funds raised from the annual wind farm
grant, Aggregate Industries (quarry owners) and the village hall along with help from
local builders will be used to fund the works. It is hoped the works will be carried out
during the coming summer months.
NK Play have recently published an update on the redevelopment of the village playground. The revised plans are on display in the village hall, and include a range of new play equipment for a range of ages.
Funding for this projects is close to being finalised, and work could start as early as September. Much of the groundworks will be completed by local contractors, with volunteers offering their labouring skills. Anyone with time and energy to spare to assist, can get in touch at info@netherkellet.com
The Nether Kellet Brownies have been working on their Charity and Make a Difference badges and have created a fantastic video to support the village in raising funds for a new playground in the village! If anyone would like to donate to the cause, please email info@netherkellet.com. We have some way to go to meet our target and would love to have your support.
