 AJ Sports and Nottingham City Homes worked together to organise a litter pick of Lenton Abbey one evening in June. There was a great turnout and many bags of rubbish removed. The young people and friends from the local area were then treated to a pizza feast at the Sheila Roper Centre.
AJ Sports are again providing free summer holiday activity for local children supported by our Area Funding. You can find out more on their website AJsportacademy.co.uk or phone 07708 181417
 Road safety is something that we value in Lenton and Wollaton East ward and that’s why it has been one of our manifesto commitments when we started our term in 2019.
We are proud that we were able to support road improvements on Derby Road from Canning Circus down to Lenton Boulevard, some of those improvements have already been made and some are yet to come soon for the benefit of all Lenton residents.
Our proposed works include widening central refuges, installation of average speed cameras, signage and other measures. We want to thank all residents who took part in the consultation and we are looking forward to making our streets safer for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists!
 Your local Councillors have been supporting the Forever Stars charity since they began planning for the Serenity Garden a few years ago, and were proud to attend the opening ceremony.
The ribbon was cut by Councillor Dave Trimble who made a speech praising the local fundraising and volunteering effort, as well as the contribution from our Parks Department.
The Lenton Green project has seen the building of 142 new homes, with a new green space area for created wildlife and nature to thrive and it residents to sit and relax in the heart of their community.
The area looks remarkable and has been completely transformed – a huge thank you to Cllrs, Nottingham City Homes and local residents for making this happen.
The poem was written by local writer, Lytisha Tunbridge, who spent time in the area and spoke with residents ahead of putting pen to paper. Thank you Lytisha!
