Playscape: Happy New Year! Thank you for all of your support in 2018. It was great to see so many of you at the Lights Switch on too, although we will definitely be buying A LOT more wine next year – sorry to those at the back of the queue when we sold out! Wonderfully…
Shelter Design Competition This Shelter is not the prettiest and until some new wooden seats were installed, it wasn’t very comfortable either! However, we think we can give it a new lease of life: Nestled next to the future basketball & football practice area, with some quirky new companions (the old horse and roundabout will…
Playscape – A Community Effort We were doubly blessed by the American visitors to the Free Church last month. They raised £81 for Playscape with a car wash and then helped us to weed and water the three new trees in the meadow and the new hedge. Not a mean feat considering the distance to…
Playscape plans have been granted planning permission! This is a great milestone for the project.

Thanks to the South Cambs Community chest (and the hardy builders who installed the bridge at the end of December!) you can now cross the ditch with ease. The stepping stones have also been installed, courtesy of the Co-op grant, and given that the…
PLAYSCAPE IN 2018 With over £60,000 raised to date 2018 could be Playscape’s year!

Once the plans have been approved we can go out to tender and apply for the large local grants to get phase…
Playscape & SSYI Dig for Spring Colour On the last Saturday of half-term we met to plant 500 bluebell bulbs in the copse and a range of native plants. Primroses, Wood Sage, Hairy St John’s Wort and Wild Garlic were planted amongst the bluebells and hedgerow plants such as Betony, Red Campion and Upright Hedge…
