ABOUT ABENBURY COMMUNITY COUNCIL

Abenbury Community Council came into being in 1972, as a result of the Local Government Act 1972, although it has a much longer history. In 2008, following a Boundary review Abenbury was extended to include properties in the LLwyn Onn area south of Abenbury Road.

Abenbury is a local government community, the lowest tier of local government, part of the Wrexham County Borough in Wales. It is situated south-east of Wrexham town and includes the village of Pentre Maelor and part of the Wrexham Industrial Estate.

URGENT - PRIDE IN PLACE FUNDING - £44,117 FOR ABENBURY !

WE NEED YOUR IDEAS!

Every Community Council in Wrexham is being awarded £44,117.64 to spend on improving our areas. This money is coming from the ‘Pride in Place Impact Fund’ , a UK government initiative and this funding is being given to every local authority in Wales.

Wrexham Council has decided to give the money directly to communities via the Community Councils so that they can decide for themselves what’s needed.

The money can’t be spent on everything though, only on certain things- we’ve been given criteria for what the money can be spent on. So, it can’t be used for salaries, or potholes, or the upkeep of existing things.

Abenbury Community Council need to find out what ideas and suggestions local residents have, and then to see if we can use the money to  make those improvements

Ideas suggested so far include:

·        Improved lighting on dark spot at Frog Lane – Please let us know of any other dark spots you are concerned about

·        Outdoor gym equipment at Llwyn Onn and at Pentre Maelor

·        An inclusive roundabout to be added to Maes Brenin Play area

·        An upgrade of Play equipment where required at Maes Brenin

·        Goal mouth matting at Maes Brenin

·        A half pipe at the Old Community centre site (depending on foundation depth required)

·        Reduce your Speed signs at Llwyn Onn and at Bridge Road

·        Renewal of bus shelters

·        Additional waste bins

YOUR IDEAS COUNT!

What do you think the money could be spent on to improve our areas? WE NEED YOUR IDEAS BY 31 MARCH - WE HAVEN'T GOT MUCH TIME!

Please e-mail the Clerk at abenburyclerk@gmail.com and let us know if you agree with any of the above ideas ,or if you have an idea that hasn’t been mentioned!
