Used to erect a Local Noticeboard To assist with the rejuvenation of Staines Park following the successful campaign to stop the new Leisure Centre being built upon it, Lib Dem Cllr Chris Bateson (Staines South) earmarked part of his Local Neighbourhood Grant money along with fellow Ward Councillor Nichola Cornes to have a new Community Notice Board erected in the Park.
