It is need of new cladding or rendering, complete updating of the electrical system, Inside painted and the outside area cleaned and updated, especially in the outside play area. The community group has already raised over £1400 and received material such as Paint, Flag Stones, Wood Chip free of charge. Local trades people (Builder,Electrician, Landscape Gardner,Carpet supplier, Wood Merchant and a Plumber) have given up their time to assist free of charge. The group have already started with the upgrade but need funding for the larger elements of the project
