On the 17th July 2012 and the 11th September 2012, Activity Sheffield invited community groups, members of the community and members of the public to a meeting to look into the possibility of setting up a ‘Friends of Verdon Recreation Centre’.
The aim of the group is to enable people and groups to share ideas, raise issues, become the focus of the community, share resources and good practice and overall be a voice for the community and Verdon users.
Both meetings were well attended, with over 20 people attending across the two meetings. There is a strong agreement that this would help take Verdon Recreation Centre on to the next level. Activity Sheffield staff gave their thoughts, took and answered questions and listened to the concerns of those in attendance.
The next step in the formation of a group is to form a committee that will steer the group over the coming weeks, months and years and have a hugely positive impact on the centre. Some individuals have expressed an interest at being involved and this will be followed up in the near future.
If you are keen to be involved, pop into the centre and speak with Nicky Darker, or alternatively contact Tom Hughes on the details provided.
