Acocks Green Ward Committee met last night in the Baptist Church. The one substantive agenda item was the approval of the following items to be funded by the Ward’s Community Chest funds:

1. £7,000 to the Gospel Oak Community Centre
2. £2,691 to the Acocks Green Silver Surfers
3. £3,500 as a top up for the Ward’s Security Gating budget
4. £1,900 to the Pitmaston 10-13’s Youth Club (jointly funded with Hall Green and serving both the Pitmaston and Gospel estates)

This leaves £15,490, from the 2010/11 budget of £100,000, still to be allocated.

The next meeting of the Ward Committee will be at 7pm on Wednesday 1st September at Fox Hollies Forum at the end of Greenwood Avenue.
