Two fantastic launches in one weekend!

This weekend saw the opening of two of our large Community Spaces projects. First was the Dunnington and Grimston Playing Fields community group who launched on Friday, followed by Eye Open Space Community that launched on Saturday. Both projects received just over £98,000 from the Community Spaces Fund to re-develop their park areas.

Dunnington and Grimston Playing Fields used the £98,000 to turn an out of date play area into a creative, challenging play zone for children of all ages to enjoy. Their launch event was a huge success, and was opened by local schoolboy, Matthew McPherson, who won a logo design competition that was ran by the community group.

Then the following day, the Mayor of Peterborough, Keith Sharpe, opened the Eye Open Space Community Project.  The group used the £99,000 given to them by Community Spaces to convert a large, baron piece of land, into a vibrant park area for all the family to enjoy.
