Pride In Melton
The pride weeks take place over the summer holidays and are a
multi-agency initiative which has developed from the Decent Place
to Live group and involve a week of activities in one area to
engage with the community. Activities include a clean up of
the whole estate with a community litter pick, removal of graffiti,
fly tipping and identifying any areas for physical
improvement. Throughout the week the neighbourhood has a
number of family and community events and opportunities to engage
with police officers and local agencies offering a range of advice
to residents. Pride 2010 was a
great success with community activities, environmental
improvements and the opening of the Multi-Use Games areas.
Details of this years Pride weeks are below;

the area for any environmental issues that need action. Come
and join us on the visual audit and let us know what issues are
affecting you, or catch one of the team who will be consulting
people during the week. Other activities include men’s
fitness, a give and take day, the residents association meeting, a
football tournament and athletics.
We look forward to seeing you!
A bit of give & take to
reduce waste
Are you looking for some
gardening tools? Have you got any toys or books you no longer want?
Do you want to swap spare cutlery for an exercise bike, or roller
skates for a skateboard? If so your troubles have been
answered.

Give & Take Day at the Fairmead Community Centre, on

waste exchange events – a chance for people to get rid of furniture
and bric-a-brac they don’t need and pick up something they do need.
And the best thing is, it’s all free!

just bring yourself and you might find something you need. Bring
along a neighbour or friend and we will provide you with a free cup
of tea/coffee & biscuit.
