Grassmoor Parish Council

The Friday evening youth club is looking for two additional volunteer leaders to support the growing attendance. DBS checks are provided free of charge. If you can spare a couple of hours on a Friday evening, please contact the parish clerk.

Six new dual-compartment recycling bins have been installed in the village centre as part of the district council's waste reduction programme. The bins accept both general waste and mixed recycling. The parish council funded the decorative surrounds to match the conservation area.

Work is progressing on new LED street lighting across the parish, replacing outdated sodium lamps. The programme is expected to reduce energy costs by 60% and improve visibility at key junctions. Completion is scheduled for September.

An expression of interest has been submitted for a grant of up to £35,000 to support major improvements at the recreation ground, including new climbing equipment and accessible play surfaces. A decision is expected by the end of June.

An extraordinary meeting has been called for Monday 21 April at 6:30pm to discuss the renewal of the allotment lease with the landowner. All current allotment holders are encouraged to attend as the proposed terms include changes to plot sizes and water access.
