The meeting received the notes from the Darton East, Darton West, Old Town and St Helen’s Ward Alliances.  Further updates were received as follows:

 

Darton East - Hanging baskets have been approved, with sponsorship agreed.  Healthy Holidays delivered 74 food parcels to struggling families during February half term with lots of positive feedback received.

 

Darton West - More applications than ever before are being received from groups who are struggling financially in the current climate and consideration is being given to how to deal with this in the longer term.  The Active Travel Hub is being closely looked at and should be a fantastic addition to the area once it is up and running.

 

Old Town  -Wilthorpe Park funding has been approved along with funding for Pogmoor Football Club Ladies and Walking Football for older people.

 

St Helen's - Spring bulbs are starting to flower and it is hoped that a gala may be possible later in the year.  February food packs have been distributed.

 

The Chair thanked all Ward Alliance Members for their hard work over this difficult time.
