Finedon’s Emergency Plan<br />

A meeting in the Town Hall on<br />

Wednesday 12th September at 7pm<br />

has been arranged to get together<br />

everybody who has offered to help.<br />

Please come along if you are able to<br />

help in any way, even if you didn’t<br />

respond to the initial questionnaire.<br />

The more help there is in an<br />

emergency, the easier it can be dealt<br />

with and you will be most welcome.<br />

Banks Park Trees<br />

A list of trees has been drawn up by<br />

Hillside Farm Nurseries and has been<br />

approved by the Council. If you are<br />

interested in purchasing a tree for<br />

planting in Banks Park, please<br />

contact me. A planting map for 9<br />

trees has also been drawn up. It is<br />

intended to have a mix of suitable<br />

trees so it will be a case first come<br />

first to choose type and place.<br />

However, if you wish to have a<br />

specific tree, please contact me and<br />

we’ll try to accommodate it. As<br />

mentioned before, an information<br />

board made with the type of tree, who<br />

donated it and why will also part of<br />

the scheme so the cost of the tree will<br />

include, planting and an amount<br />

towards the cost of the board. That<br />

way there’ll be a permanent record of<br />

each tree planted.<br />
