I am pleased that Mile Oak Recreation Ground has gained more support since the spring of 2010, when I first met with councillor Ian Davey.

During the past four years new apparatus has come and gone. A small skate board area would be useful.

It is a pity the local councillors did not apply for a national lottery grant some time ago.

Now at least with the pending elections, Mile Oak Recreation Ground may receive more support.
