Rishton: Vote for Piggy Park at Tesco

The Piggy Park Community Garden Project has been entered into a competition for funding alongside two other Lancashire projects under the 'Tescos's Bags of Help' Funding Scheme. If successful in the bid, the group will be able to buy a potting shed, install raised beds and be able to develop a 'Forest School' area for use by St Charles School, Copperhouse Children's Centre, Rishton Brownies and as many other local groups as possible.

Group secretary Jeff Scales said, "This money will help to transform a neglected and underused site into a green oasis within Rishton, providing environmental education opportunities for the whole community. Voting is currently taking place in the Tesco store in Great Harwood. so please pop along and vote for Piggy Park!"

Chairman of the group, Cllr Ken Moss siad, "This is not an online vote, you can only vote in the Great Harwood store so please get as many people as possible who shop at Tesco to vote!"
