We all say “what a lovely community Ash & Ash Vale are” – very true! Would you like to help our wonderful community? Just an hour or so when needed, helping at community events in Ash and Ash Vale such as the Village Fete in June, the Youth Centre (hopefully opening soon), Lakeside Nature Fun Day, Remembrance Day and Fantasia.
For 12 years the Community Street Team have concentrated on engaging with local youngsters between 10 – 16 years to address local anti-social issues. We have engaged with the youth, listen to them and try to suggest alternative routes for their lifestyle.
As a result of Anti Social Behaviour having been reduced successfully, we are now planning to “morph” into a more community-focussed group with some volunteers continuing “Outings” but now some members also giving greater assistance at local events i.e Village Fete, Lakeside Nature Reserve Event, Remembrance Day Parades and Christmas Fantasia.
If you would like to help please contact Pat Scott scott.lpd@outlook.com or (01252) 324941. I look hearing from you.
