Where can we fit this all in?

• Butterfly garden - behind the clubroom clearing the rough ground
• Fitness trail – along the back of the field, behind the football pitch

How can we pay for it?
• Amazingly there are still grants available• So far we’ve secured for the playground:
– £5,302 from RASP • For the clubroom:
– £1,349 from Berkshire Community Foundation towards new chairs– £28,500 from Greenham Common Trust towards clubroom
extension• The Parish Council will reclaim the VAT for the equipment• We have applied for £4,500 'Fete' money • We should get some 'parish plan' money from W Berks
Council • Our big application is to Veolia, and discussions are going
well• We are looking into two possible sources of free trees and
we may be able to get free wildflower turf
