Good turnout at Anjulita Court for Community Plan event

The Planning for Real instructions enabled residents to take part in the exercise with the minimum of fuss

There was a good turnout from residents at Anjulita Court in Woodlands Park on 12th July. They came to take part in the 2nd consultation session, where residents could add their ideas regarding the future of Brickhill on a giant map of the area.

Some suggestions were given to help residents think of issues - or they could write their own ideas

This process is called ‘Planning for Real’ and was co-ordinated by staff from Bedfordshire Rural Communities Charity (BRCC) with support from volunteer members of the Brickhill Sustainable Community Plan steering group.

BRCC staff plus local volunteer review comments from residents

A big thank you to everyone who came along and gave their ideas – and thanks also to the staff and volunteers.

The next opportunity for residents to give their ideas will be at the Gathering on the Green on Waveney Green on 4th August.

The event will also be attended by several local agencies including the Credit Union, Pine Cones Children’s Centre, local housing agencies, and information on local health services.

Ahoy there! First chance to play on the boat at the Waveney Play area

Proposed Play Facilities on Waveney Green

Thank you to all residents who wrote to us or attended the various consultation events in Brickhill about the proposed new play facilities to be located on Waveney Green. Thanks to all the local feedback, amendments have been made to the proposed location and design. It is anticipated that the play facilities will be situated at the end of the Green near to Brickhill Lower School and we hope that work on the new development will start early in the New Year.
