Fantastic news!

Friends of Pinner Village Gardens have come first in the latest round of the Tesco Bags of Help scheme for North West London, so our guaranteed £1,000 has been converted into £4,000!

Thanks to all of you who shopped in Tesco’s, persuaded the check-out folk to give you as many blue tokens as possible, and popped said tokens into the FoPVG ‘box’.

Extra thanks to project-manager Antonia Savvides for organising everything.

Extra extra thanks to Antonia and her mother-in-law for shopping like there’s no tomorrow. Absolutely outstanding performance as I’m sure you’ll agree!

Finally, congratulations to our good friends Friends of Roxbourne Park – http://friendsofroxbourne.wixsite.com/park –  who came second and raised £2,000.

An Opportunity to Give Back to Pinner:

Have you thought that this is the year that you would do something for the community that you live in?  Look no further…   The Pinner Association AGM and elections of committee members will take place at our Open Meeting to be held at 8pm on Wednesday 18^th April in the Pinner Village Hall, Chapel Lane car park… We are looking for new committee members who wish to take an active interest/role in the place where they live.   We meet eleven times per year to discuss and take action on a wide range of topics every one or two months, including:

• Planning, including Pinner’s Conservation Areas
• Environment, covering Pinner’s parks and open spaces
• Highways and Parking in Pinner
• Public Transport to and from Pinner
• Local Policing

For more information about becoming a committee member and trustee of The Pinner Association, and for a Nomination Form to stand for the committee at our AGM, please contact:  [email protected]

The Friends of Pinner Village Gardens (FoPVG) are actively fundraising to pay for much needed improvements to the children’s playground in that park.   Currently, the children’s playground is in a poor condition due to several years of semi-neglect.  It is under-utilised by local families due to the limited facilities and it’s rather run down appearance.   FoPVG plan to install some key new pieces of children’s play and educational equipment in the existing children’s playground in Pinner Village Gardens park.  All the planned improvements will make it a more interesting and fun place to play and spend time and a social hub for local families and friends.

The Pinner Association Committee were pleased to donate £500 to this fundraising appeal and Tim Owen, Pinner Association Honorary Treasurer, formally presented the cheque to the Friends of Pinner Village Gardens on Wednesday 14th February.

Anyone who would like to find out how to make a donation or would like to find out more about this exciting project can do so via this link:     https://friendsofpvg.org.uk/#

Good news! At last the footpath on Chapel Lane is being repaired.

This will occur between 9th February and 2nd March.

Thank you to the Pinner Association who kindly donated £500
towards our play equipment. As they were so impressed by how the children had
coped with the events of recent months. They presented the cheque in assembly on Friday 26th January.
