Fresh faces at Springfield!
Work on the New Multi-Games Area MUGA has been completed with the painting of the surface is a bold shade of blue! And thanks to some Community Infrastructure Levy monies, the Village Hall has had a fabulous facelift with a new porch! And the new swings are up!
Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s party!’ – Robin Williams
We are in the unusual position of having both half and full plot allotments available for new tenants! If having an allotment has been on your wish-list and you have never quite got round to it, now’s the time! There are few activities that can achieve what horticulture and gardening can. The act of gardening helps us to keep fit and connect with others, to enjoy and be part of nature and to revel in colour, aroma, wildlife and beauty. Do get in touch if you are ready to pick up that trowel!
Could you become a Parish Councillor?
The Parish Council is very keen to welcome more councillors into its membership, and we encourage Milborne Port residents to put themselves forward for this very important role. Maybe you are new to the Parish and want to become involved with local matters, or maybe you have lived in the village for all of your life and you are now looking to give something back. To qualify, you must be 18 or over and on the electoral register. The Parish Council is involved in many different activities, from local planning matters, to managing the open spaces and working with our community groups, to delivering projects. If you feel you could bring something to the role and a genuine interest in our village, why not put yourself forward to become a councillor?
Do get in touch to find out more about the process of becoming a councillor by co-option; you do not need to wait for an election! If you would like to talk to us, pop in to see us in the Parish Council Office any Tuesday morning between 8.30 am and 12.30 pm or on a Wednesday by appointment; you can also call us on 01963 251268 or 07375 892631 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. We are also happy to assist with printing off the form for you.
