There are always lots of things that need doing when running and maintaining a community space.
​
Thompson Millennium Green is over 2.5 acres in size and we would love the community of Thompson and their friends and family to be able to make use of and enjoy this green space. Being outdoors in an open green area is a great way to relax and enjoy nature.
​
To keep the Green open for everyone to enjoy we have to meet certain requirements. To be open to the public we need insurance, and for that to be valid we need to ensure the Green is safe and well maintained. All of this means is that there is an ongoing need for regular maintenance and that adds up to the inevitable running costs.
​
We don’t just want the Green to stay as it is! The needs of the community will evolve over time as does the needs of the wildlife, flora and fauna that all share this valuable area so we are always looking to enhance the area. Our aim is to keep the green full of life for all to enjoy.
