I WONDER if anybody in Blackburn's Bank Top-Wensley Fold area would be interested in the setting up of a residents committee, with the goal of obtaining funds for our needs -- everything from play areas for toddlers to football grounds for older children and the maintenance of the present community gardens?
Hopefully there would be enough members to carry weight with the council, to make clean and adopt back streets, some of which are a disgrace; voluntary work such as painting and gardening for those who can't do it themselves, and improving our lot generally.
Not an "elitist' club, but one in which all are welcome who would like a better community environment.
