PEOPLE in north Durham are being asked how they would like to improve their surrounding area.
Residents of Moorside, near Consett are urged to attend a consultation event about an environmental improvement project on Dunelm Road. The event is being held on Wednesday January 28 at Moorside Community Technology College, in the main hall from 3-7pm. It has been organised by environmental regeneration charity Groundwork West Durham and Darlington Charity spokesman Kath Ivens said: "Local people are welcome to drop in for a few minutes, have a look at the proposals and comment on them.
"We are working with Moorside Residents Association to develop this project around the blocks of trees and fields to the north of Dunelm Road, where there have been a number of issues in recent months." The work is being undertaken in partnership with Derwentside District Council who own the land and Consett police.
Ms Ivens added: "There will also be events aimed at young people, to ensure that everyone is able to have their say about what the project could include." For more information please contact Kath Ivens, Groundwork on 01207 524803 or email kath.ivens@groundwork.org.uk
