๐Ÿ’™ Men's Mental Health Month ๐Ÿ’™

This June, we want to remind everyone that looking after your mental wellbeing is just as important as looking after your physical health.

Checking in on friends, family members, colleagues, and neighbours can make a real difference. A simple "How are you doing?" or "Fancy a chat?" could mean more than you realise. ๐Ÿค

Let's continue to help create a community where everyone feels comfortable reaching out when they need it. Support is available and it's okay to talk. ๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŽ‰ What we've been up to at Youth Club recently ๐ŸŽ‰

Our young people have been keeping busy with plenty of exciting activities over the past few weeks! ๐Ÿ’š

Last week, the young people from our youth provision enjoyed an amazing trip to Longleat! It was a fantastic day out that was packed full of adventure and fun! ๐ŸŽ’๐Ÿ“ธโœจ

We saw an array of wildlife such as koalas, ostriches, macaques, and otters; we were even really brave and held some tarantulas! ๐Ÿจ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ•ท๏ธ

Over at our Monday Grange Leisure and Community Centre sessions, our young people have been enjoying some friendly football with local PCSOs, providing a great opportunity to stay active and have fun โšฝ๐Ÿ‘ฎ

It's been fantastic to see everyone getting involved, trying new things, and making memories together. We can't wait to share what we get up to next! โœจ

Little Bo Sweep Update ๐Ÿงน

We're committed to getting our Little Bo Sweep out and about across the parish as much as possible throughout the year.

To maximise efficiency, we generally carry out sweeping on roads and areas opposite to our mowing schedule, helping us balance resources and maintain standards across the parish.

We will endeavour to deploy the Little Bo Sweep as often as we can, subject to weather conditions and available resources.

Our aim is to visit every residential street at least once each year. Where time, weather and resources allow, we will look to increase this to two visits per year.

Thank you for your continued support as we work to keep our parish clean, tidy and well maintained for everyone. ๐Ÿ’š
