Following the grant from the West Area Committee as group of residents spent the afternoon on a community cohesion trip to a Nottingham Forest match on Saturday 5th December.
Twenty seven residents went in total to the match played against Leicester City. This was the first time some had been to a football match played in the major leagues.
It was a very exciting game to go and see with nearly a 30,000 crowd attending and a pitch walk by the Mercer Regiment who had currently finished a tour of duty in Afganistan.
In the end Forest managed to thrash Leicester City 5 - 1 which made the day even more enjoyable.
Another grant has been applied for to enable the residents of the estate to visit Skegness on a day trip by train during the summer months. We shall have to see if we are successful
