Call for volunteers for action groups

Call for volunteers for action groups... Be the change...

Now it’s time to turn the Hurst Green 2030 vision into reality, we’d like to get started by creating volunteer groups to bring together interested individuals who could take forward specific areas of the vision.

If you’d be interested in volunteering to join one of the community action groups to help:

– Give the children’s park at Lodge field a significant upgrade…

– Develop a new nature reserve at Stage field, Silver Hill…

– Create a new public family park (at a location to be determined)…

– Devise and deliver an upgrade to the sporting facilities at Drewitt’s field…

– Donate your skills to deliver any area of the vision you’re passionate about…

We’d love to hear from you. There’s no minimum time commitment and absolutely no pressure – it’s about bringing like minded people together who are passionate about making things better in our community.

Together we can succeed where other communities have failed. To volunteer, or if you are interested in finding out more, please contact Elaine, Steve or Andrew by completing our expression of interest form.
