Notes from the meetings held on 21^st November 2016 and 9^th January 2017 with feedback from the Ward Alliance Chair

Two Christmas events took place in Royston at both the Wells and the Albert Shepherd VC Civic Hall.  It was reported that community activists have done some excellent work across the community.  A Royston Greenspaces community group has been formed and the Gala is being planned for 1^st July to be attended by the Yorkshire Military Band.  A litter pick is planned for 3^rd March with pupils from Outwood Academy Carlton.  The Royston Achievement Awards event for Primary School children will take place on 14^th March at the Town Hall.  All the primary schools are taking part and all Ward Alliance members have been invited.

Recently funded projects include Reds in the Community; ‘Us Girls’ urban arts project (who will produce a mural in Royston Park) and a new noticeboard for the Wells.  Forty allotment plots are now available and are advertised on the website.  This has been a great success story and a good relationship has been formed with Groundworks. 

RESOLVED that the notes of the Royston Ward Alliance and verbal update be received.
