Oh what a Fete that was!

What an amazing day we had in Easebourne Park last weekend for the combined PTA and Parish Council Fete in the Park! After a slightly damp start the sun shone, the people came out and much fun was had!

Live music from the B3’s and local super talented Ellie Baker, lots of raffles, tombola’s, BBQ, bar, Pimms, cakes and ice-cream. Children could go for a donkey ride, a go-cart race or a scooter experience! Fun races, a dog show and dance classes all took place in the Events corner.

A big BIG thank you to the PTA for all their hard work in pulling together the packed day, including the team of volunteers who showed up at 7.30am and stayed all day, the FrEP teams who set up, cleared up and litter picked and to everyone of course who visited and helped raise a huge amount of extra money for the School.

Same time next year we hope!!

Friends of Easebourne Parish hard at work!

One of the warmest days of the year didn’t stop the Friends of Easebourne Parish (FrEP) volunteers from doing a mass strim of areas in Easebourne Park. They were rewarded with a very welcome coffee and cake and have left the Park looking rather splendid!

If you’d like to get involved in future FrEP volunteering activities in the Park and around the village, please email frepsec@btinternet.com

Tiered Seating in the Park complete

As many may already have seen, the construction of tiered seating facing The Roundhouse in Easebourne Park has now been completed and is available for use!

We hope you like the end result – offering a large amount of extra seating within the Park and commanding a great view too! It will be a great addition for the Fete in the Park on the 7th  July where we have live music in The Roundhouse and for any future performances.

If you have any suggestions for future activities in The Roundhouse please get in touch with Parishclerk@easebourne.org

Big thank you to local company ACS Limited for completing the project and doing such a fantastic job!

Tiered seating work – an update

UPDATE 17th May – work continues on the tiered seating and we apologise that it’s taking a little longer than expected, not helped by some poor weather. But things are progressing well and we expect it to be completed by the end of Wednesday 22nd May. The area will remain cordoned off for a week or so afterwards to allow the turf time to settle.
We’re thrilled to confirm that work to create the tiered seating facing The Roundhouse has begun today and is expected to take around 1 week. The area will be fenced off during the work and we apologise for any inconvenience if you are intending to visit the Park during this time.
A local groundworks company will construct 4 tiers either side of a new central set of steps, cut out of the bank and supported by oak sleepers. A low fence will surround the top and outer sides of the tiers.
This project has been a Parish Council plan for a while and now that more and more people use the Park, and following the success of recent events in The Roundhouse, we feel that now is the time to implement the plan.
The cost of this project will be entirely met by recent grant bids won by the Council.

New tiered seating for Easebourne Park

The Parish Council are very excited to announce that work will begin at the end of April to create natural tiered seating within the grass bank facing The Roundhouse in Easebourne Park.

Donations for Easebourne Park

Did you know you can now very easily make a small donation for the maintenance and future development of our award-winning village Park?

We know how much Easebourne Park is loved and enjoyed by people, with it’s open space, play equipment, stunning Roundhouse and now it’s award-winning eco loos. But what you might not appreciate is how much the Park now costs to keep it looking it’s best.

We budget for essential costs and collect our annual precept from Chichester District Council, but any extra funds that we can raise will mean we can do even more things and create an even better environment for our residents.

If you enjoy visiting the Park and feel like making a small extra donation for its upkeep, you can do so online or by scanning the QR code that will soon be appearing at the entrances to the Park.

Minor damage to the Loo means short closure

Update 24th Jan – the damage caused to the loo door is more significant that originally thought and due to ongoing windy weather forecast for Thursday and into Friday, we have taken the decision to keep both loos closed until Saturday 27th Jan. As well as scheduling the repair, we are also looking at how the doors can be strengthened. We apologise for any inconvenience.

During the very windy weather the Eco-loo has suffered some damage to the door. With the forecasted high winds again in the next 24/36 hours, and whilst the door is repaired, the loo will be closed. We expect things to be open again during Wednesday. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Eco Loo update to opening

Easebourne Park Loos opening times
Further to the post earlier this week, the Parish Council have now reviewed the additional budget required to keep one of the loos open over the autumn/winter months. It has been agreed to trial keeping one loo open 7 days a week, during the hours of daylight. This will happen until at least the end of this year and perhaps beyond.
If we are to maintain at least 1 loo open 365 days a year we will need to find an additional £2000 over and above what we had previously budgeted. This potentially means as we review our precept requirements for 2024 we would have to increase the overall contribution required from future Council tax revenues.

Eco Loo opening times

Easebourne Park Loos opening times
Following some community feedback, the Parish Council are reviewing the seasonal closing of the park loos. Presently it is scheduled that both loos will close on 30 October. It’s possible that one loo can remain open for longer, but that does have financial implications outside of the current budget. This is currently being reviewed and we will revert with any revised decisions/dates shortly.
