SO18 Big Local Big Conversation

SO18 Big Local is a resident-led, Lottery funded project that covers the areas of Townhill Park, Harefield and parts of Midanbury. Big Local was set up as a 10 year project, but can be extended while funds remain and if there are sufficient volunteers driving the project. We are just starting our 9th year and are reaching out to the community, so that you can help us identify priorities and share your ideas for the remaining funds/time that the project has left to go.

For a chance to WIN ONE OF 10 £20 SHOPPING VOUCHERS, enter by 28th May 2021.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to contribute to our Big Conversation and please forward to local friends/family as well
