Neighbourhood Pride
This group were formed from a band of residents who were opposed to the plans for redevelopment of their area. They considered the type of housing totally inappropriate for the area, and fought to have a voice. Rother Fed worked with them, and Catherine Dale to set up the TARA to enable them to do just that. They too have just been awarded a Start Up Grant of £200.00
The Neighbourhood Pride TARA in Thrybergh held a Fun & Consultation Day on Sunday 10 August 2008, on the Dalton Playing fields.
The event, which ran from11.00am-3.00pm consisted of Stalls, Bands, Bouncy Castle, Giant Jenga, Splat the Rat and other games, including football competitions.There were fundraising stalls on behalf of the TARA, and Dalton Parish Council.
Member Development Officer Alan Goy was in attendance to represent Rother Fed, and managed to win two raffle prizes on each stall!.
There were refreshments and a barbecue throughout the day, which stayed mainly fine and dry, although a little windy. The consultation was run through Groundwork Dearne Valley, and residents were invited to give their views. Anyone taking part was given a token for a free ride. All rides were 50p.
