The 'Friends of Broadwaters' greeted the news that our lovely park had once more won the prestigious Green Pennant, with great satisfaction. We did expect to win, as, due to the joint effort of Wyre Forest Parks Dept., and the 'Friends', the park did look at at its very best on the assessment day.
Being able to demonstrate an on going commitment to improving our green space, was foremost in the decision to award the park the coveted Green Pennant, for the sixth consecutive year.
The fact that the recent Big Lottery award was in the process of being spent on the variety of projects planned for the park was also a big factor.
The members who met with the assessor were able to demonstrate their long term commitment to this cause, and also show that they were actively encouraging new members to take part in the plans.
All in all, a most satisfying culmination to a few months hard work by all concerned.
