Great news from the Friends group to say that they have been recognied for the work they have done with them being awarded The Queen’s Award For Voluntary Service and the citation reads ‘For developing a recreation ground for children and families in a previous run down area.’ Work has included new play equipment, new paths and landscaping, installation of gym equipment, improvements to the football pitch and the development of a natural play area. This award is eqivalent to an individual receiving an MBE.
We’d like to add our congratulations to the group and thank them for everything they’ve done for the community.
Totally agree a well deserved award and all thanks to Tracey Wilson and her colleagues. They also had a great day out meeting the Queen at Buckingham Palace.
