BMX site in Hampden Park

The Friends, working with YMCA, have held a Consultative Event when all interested people in the area were able to contribute to what equipment is desired.  Moves are now being taken to secure the lease, obtain planning permission, finalise requirements and find the money.  

Sponsors to thank for this event are Network Rail, Tesco and Eastbourne Homes Hampden Park Panel, plus YMCA.
