The creation of volunteering opportunities and involvement of the Friends of Pleck Park forms part of the improvement programme too. Twelve volunteer opportunities will be created for young people aged 16-25, aligning to the council’s healthy spaces vision to ‘increase sustainability through increased use of volunteers’.
FCC Communities Foundation is a not-for-profit business that awards grants for community projects through the Landfill Communities Fund.
“ I’m delighted to be supporting this programme. We want residents to take pride in their local park, and our vision is to improve Pleck Park as a green space for local residents, enhance community well-being and provide free to access recreational facilities.
I’d like to thank FCC Communities Foundation for providing the funding to make this programme become a reality. It will be a real boost to the local community and I’m looking forward to seeing the new facilities take shape over the next few months. We have real ambitions for the park and I’m hoping it will achieve the prestigious Green Flag status in future years. “
