In some of our work with PHT Steering Groups and local communities, we have connected with Squidge from #Playstreet.

He has recently been mentioned in an article where he has been recognised for his community work.

Squidge works with the younger generations trying to get them involved in the community around them. He runs some amazing Urban Art and BMX sessions in one of our regeneration estates – Netherfield.

The Local Conversations PHT Steering Group meet weekly in a bid to improve their community and to connect with others. The Urban Art and BMX sessions in Netherfield were arranged by the group in hope of promoting the younger generations input into our community ideas.

Local Conversations are looking at starting their Community Garden Project and are putting some CCTV up in the community.

If you would like to get involved with the Local Conversations Group in Netherfield then please do not hesitate to contact them: localconversationsnf@gmail.com
