Friends of Ancells Farm

Saturday 15th October saw a number of 'football dads' from Hart FC joining forces with Friends of Ancells Farm and Fleet Town Council to clear out our boarded up pavilion. The afternoon was a great success and the building is now clear and ready for renovation. The building is structurally sound, but needs new facias, guttering, and a boiler as well as some other new fittings.

Friends of Ancells Farm are now working with Fleet Town Council to explore ways to secure funding and assistance to get the renovations under way. Then the pavilion can be re-opened so that Fleet residents can use this excellent facility once again.

If you can recommend any local businesses who can provide plumbing, electrical or carpentry services, who may be interested in helping with this worthwhile project, then please contact us on committee@ancellsfarm.org.uk

We've been listening to feedback from our members and we agree that there is a gap in our play park for equipment for 4-7 year olds.

We have agreed with Fleet Town Council that we can donate two items of equipment for installation in the park and fundraising is progressing well. We're looking to provide a medium sized climbing frame with a slide and also a 'trim trail'.

We need to raise £9,000 to secure both pieces of equipment and so far we've raised nearly £6,000! This means that we are close to installing the new climbing frame & slide and have made a good start towards the trim trail too.
