The 'Friends of High Park Green Spaces' Community Group have made great strides towards improving parks in their local area

The ‘Friends of High Park Green Spaces’ Community Group in Southport has made great strides towards improving parks in the local area by building 14 planters (containing flowers and vegetables) and planting 24 adult fruit trees in Devonshire Road, Canning Road and Russell Road parks.

The project was achievable using a portion of the £10,500 funding from Liverpool City Region’s Community Environment Fund allocated to Brighter Living Partnership’s National Lottery funded High Park Project. 

Joe McNulty, Community Organiser for the National Lottery funded High Park Project said: “This has been a wonderful show of community spirit and we have been overwhelmed with the level of support this has received.

“Key to this project was community involvement in the decision making and delivery so I’d like to thank Natalie Neylon who leads on the ‘Friends of High Park Green Spaces’ Group for her continued support and leadership – without which the project would only be a shadow of what we achieved together.” 

The project also worked closely with the Natural Alternatives team based at Botanic Gardens in Churchtown and Green Sefton, members of Botanic Gardens Community Association and local councillors.

Help was also received from Morrison’s Anna Ingram, the Community Champion at Morrison’s supermarket in Southport, along with staff and residents of New Directions Ltd (Wavell Close) and Edge Hall Care home.

  4. Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any methods to stop hackers?

  5. I do agree with all the ideas you’ve offered on your post. They are very convincing and can definitely work. Nonetheless, the posts are too short for novices. May you please lengthen them a bit from subsequent time? Thank you for the post.

  6. When I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks!
