FUNDING FOR OSCOTT COMMUNITY GROUPS.


The Oscott Ward Advisory Board recognised the efforts local residents groups make in the Oscott Ward by recommending small grants of money are paid to these groups.
groups such as the Oscott Residents Association, the Oscott Disability Group, the Oscott Elderly Residents group, The Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve, The Kingstanding Police Initiative, The Perry Barr Pensioners Convention and the Oscott Neighbourhood will all have a share of just under 2 and a a half thousand pounds between them. Divided between them.
It may not seem much but it will go a long way to help them to help local residents.
The finale decision on this funding will be made by our local Councillors. Keith Linnecor, Barbara Dring and Councillor Grahame Greene, but they have indicated their support.
