Churwell Woodland Adventure
The Mayor of Morley, Cllr
Robert Finnigan, attended the Churwell Woodland Adventure on Sunday along with
the Mayoress, Lisa Finnigan, Deputy Mayor Cllr Roger Bell and Deputy Mayoress
Christine Bell. The event, run by Churwell Environmental Volunteers, showcased
the work the group had undertaking with delivering a woodlands railway along
with other improvements to Clark Spring Woods in Churwell.
Cllr Robert Finnigan said “It
was an excellent event and the weather was delightful. The work the
Environmental Volunteers have undertaken; the woodland railway, the dipping
pond along with improvements to the footpaths and signage, is a tribute to
their commitment to their local community. The Woods, often overlooked in the
past, is now a thriving place of interest for local people, both young and old.
It is an excellent community asset!”
Residents were treated to
trips on the miniature railway, an exploration theme at the dipping pond along
with raffles, cake stalls and tombola’s.
Cllr Roger Bell said “It was
a privilege and a pleasure to attend. The Volunteers work hard all year round,
with the support of their local community, to deliver a work programme that
have transformed the Woods to a particularly special location.”
