Project Sunflower
Following the sucess of the floral Union Flag last year the residents decided on a new display at Old High Lane Station on Middlewood Way.
A big thanks to Owen Taylor whose idea it was, Martin of Coppice Road Nursery for his assistance in growing the seeds into plants in his greenhouse that could then be planted out once they were mature.
Thanks also to the incredible Good Gym for their help in clearing the site of ground elder and all those residents that gave up some time to help with this project.
Outdoor Gym Project
The Residents' Association are considering the possibility of an Adult Outdoor Gym for High Lane Park.
The idea is to improve the health and wellbeing of the residents by providing some equipment for adults/ teenagers including those who may have disabilities. Being in the park it will be available whenever required and without any charges or travel, gym membership for a family can be an expensive item today.
It is hoped that by encouraging more adults to use the park this may reduce the small amount of anti-social behaviour that sometimes occurs.
We expect the equipment to be used by parents visiting the park with their children, casual joggers, for warming up before taking part in field and village hall activities and for the person that just wants to be able to have a stretch or work a muscle or two.
Many of our Stockport parks have similar facilities to those we propose, If you wish to comment or give ideas use the link contact@hlra.org.uk
