Success for Beesmoor Road Playing Field pavillion roof application

At the recent Frome Vale Area Forum, Pat Hockey’s proposal seconded by Dave that the full amount of £9, 991 should be paid from the New Homes Bonus funds to Beesmoor Road Playing Field Committee so they could reroof the pavilion was unanimously approved by the Area Committee.

Pat stated that the roof has been in dire need of replacement for many years. Dave explained to the Area Committee that Beesmoor Road Playing Field Committee (BRPFC) does raise funds each year through car boot sales in the summer to help run and maintain the field and play equipment on behalf of the village. £9,991 was however far beyond their accumulated funds.

The bid which was submitted by Alison Lee on behalf of the Committee stated that the Football Club aimed to get the pavilion reroofed over the summer in time for the new season. Because the existing roof contains asbestos, the appropriate measures will need to be taken when it is removed.

We are delighted that this bid was successful – well done BRPFC.
