NEWS FROM THE GATEACRE SOCIETY (March 2004):

Gateacre in Bloom?

For three years now, Woolton Village has taken part in 'Britain in Bloom'. A team of Woolton residents, with the support of the City Council and local businesses, and under the guidance of a Committee chaired by Councillors Barbara Collinge and Barbara Mace, has successfully undertaken a programme of colourful planting of decorative beds, boxes and hanging baskets in and around the village. Various environmental improvements have also been carried out, and events organised which have raised money both for the planting itself and for local charities.

Now there is hope that the scheme can be extended to Gateacre Village - but that will require the active participation of Gateacre residents and businesses. Following consultation with our Society, the two Councillors have organised an Open Meeting at the Chapel Hall, to be held on
Wednesday 31st March at 7 p.m. They have distributed invitations in and around the village centre, and are hoping for a good response.
