Playground upgrade appeal

~ bacaadmin

Please join us in making a difference for the benefit of local kids. We are raising money in aid of the playground at Bellingdon village hall, which is managed by the Bellingdon and Asheridge Community Association.

Every donation will help bring us to the overall target of £40,000 that we need to raise for some significant enhancements to the playground facilities. Imagine a big new climbing frame tower, a play tractor and trailer, and lots more! It’s important to have an enticing and enriching space to encourage our young people to get outside. Play is very important for their physical and mental health, as well as just being really fun!

We are also working on securing corporate donations and grants and every donation from you will highlight how much the community believes in the playground improvements. (And if you have any fundraising ideas or contacts then please let us know!)

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause, it means an incredible amount to us and mostly, to the community’s young people.
