“Our charity has been working tirelessly over the past three years to secure funding to renovate our unusable and unsafe play area.”

The parishes of Eastville, Midville and New Leake are in a rural area of Lincolnshire with no regular transport links and few amenities.

Mrs Roddis-Evans added: “It was very important for our growing community to have a safe area for the community to meet and interact.

Last year we were granted just under £50,000 to renovate the existing equipment and install new play equipment and seating for use by all ages.”

The playing field is managed by a committee on behalf of the community. It is responsible for raising all the monies required to insure and maintain the facility.

It is estimated this year’s total will be in excess of £1,500.

More events have been planned for the coming months, including jumble sales, a children’s party, a children’s disco, a family fun day and pub quizzes to raise funds.
