PLEASE note: Oakridge is in the process, as you are aware, of regeneration, and the estate is having a lot of money spent on keeping it clean and respectable, safe and appealing.

Please ask your children to respect it and not damage any of it, including trees and shrubs that have been planted.

AT YOUR Leisure for Over 55s: Will soon be celebrating its first birthday and would like to take this opportunity to gain your views and ideas on the project, so that it can be improved.

Brian Bartlett, centre manager, and June Balcombe, of the Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, will lead a discussion on Friday, June 2, from 11am to noon, at the Oakridge Hall for All.

Call the community centre on 01256 475844 for more information.

CONTACT me: On the number above if you have any news you would like to be included in this column.
