The Community Celebrates

Residents in the area surrounding the proposed Crematorium development in Faulconbridge celebrated on Sunday 22nd May with a picnic in Buttenshaw Park, the site of many of the community action meetings. The campaign which started in March 2010 was a success because of the hard work of all involved and this was acknowledged by everyone there.

A number of people commented on how great it had been to get to know their neighbours and all agreed to stay connected and continue to be involved in community issues. Those present also reflected on the various elements of the campaign and enjoyed the display of photos and newspaper clippings - and the specially decorated celebration cake!
