News from the park
Youth structure project gets underway
A mock up workshop took place on Thursday 13th June.
Touchwood hosted a workshop where the young people could
build a temporary structure that would allow everyone to visualise
it, explore it and develop ideas to enhance the design.
The results will be fed into the final design which will now be
drawn up. Work will begin in July on constructing the
structure.
A summer of exciting projects
We are absolutely delighted that we have secured funding to
deliver two youth focused projects in 2013.
We have been awarded a grant for £49,999 through the Community
Spaces programme which is being managed by Groundwork UK as an
Award Partner to the Big Lottery Fund. This funding along
with £10,811 from Bradley Stoke Town Council will build
a Youth Structure and improve some of the paths in the park.
This project has to be completed by the end of September
2013.
We have also secured funding from Safer Stronger Communities
Initiative funding and the Co-Operative membership fund to use
father and son artists Thrussell and Thrussell to work
with the youth of Bradley Stoke to produce 'Brass' rubbing plates
in the park. We are curently sorting out the logistics of
this project and hope the plates will be made in July.
For more information please see our projects page.

open. To access it from the park you will need to walk around
the tennis court through the gate between the tennis courts and the
back of the council office, the entrance to the tennis court is on
the left and the loo is on the right.
