Brimington Parish Council

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.

A planning application has been submitted for an extension to the village hall to include a new community meeting room and kitchen facilities. The parish council has expressed support in principle, subject to parking arrangements being resolved.

A new public access defibrillator has been installed outside the village shop thanks to fundraising by the parish council and a generous donation from the local WI. Free training sessions will be held on the first Saturday of each month at the village hall.

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.
