EU LEADER GRANT

EU LEADER GRANT

Stamfordham Playing Field and Village Hall has benefitted from an EU LEADER grant of £11,731.72 to replace the old fencing on the area adjacent to the village hall, formerly known as ‘The Basketball Court’. LEADER is a community led approach to delivering EU funding into rural development and communities, and is part of the Rural Development Programme for England. We are most grateful for their support. The successful bid for funds has allowed for the replacement of the old, dilapidated fencing with very strong galvanised panels, posts and two gates. This now means that the area can be used as a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA). We look forward to welcoming Stamfordham Primary School, Brownies, Holiday Club, Youth Club as well as all residents to the area in due course.
CCTV has been installed and marking out the area for a range of sports has also been completed.
REMEMBER: This is a community facility so please look after it. Any problems can be notified to the committee using the ‘Contact’ button above.
