🌳 Gelt Woods – Tree Management Update

We are aware that there are a number of fallen trees within Gelt Woods, as well as other trees that have been identified as requiring removal due to their condition.

We are currently in the process of obtaining quotations for the necessary works. Once these have been received and the work has been agreed, we will arrange for the trees to be made safe and removed as soon as possible.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause to local residents and walkers, and thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to address the issue.

🌞 Please Help Protect Our Parks and Green Spaces 🌞

With the warm weather continuing, we'd like to remind everyone that portable BBQs and fire pits should not be used on Parish Council land.

We have recently received reports of a couple of incidents involving portable BBQs/fire pits, and even a small fire can quickly spread in the current dry conditions, putting people, wildlife and nearby property at risk.

Whether you're visiting one of the parks, another public open space or the countryside, please use BBQs responsibly, dispose of ci******es safely, take your litter home and help protect all of our green spaces from the risk of fire.

Thank you for helping to keep Brampton and the surrounding area safe 🌳🌿

🎨 Our talented young artists have helped brighten up Brampton! 🌞

The winning artwork from our Summer Arts Project has been turned into banners and is now proudly displayed on the railings outside the library for everyone to enjoy.

Children were asked to create pictures of Brampton, from favourite buildings and views to local wildlife, and the results are fantastic. The banners are displayed from left to right, from Year 3 at Brampton Primary through to Year 9 at William Howard.

A huge thank you to local resident Albert Cook (Bettal Quality Consultancy) for kindly funding the banners and prizes for the winners.

Congratulations to all the children—you've made Brampton an even brighter place! 👏🏻💙🖼️
