Fairlands Playing Field is maintained by a group of volunteers. The tasks they undertake include:

• Cutting the grass on the field
  
• Strimming the surrounds
  
• Levelling the field
  
• Reseeding or re-turfing worn areas
  
• Clearing dog faeces from the field (why do owners still allow their dogs to foul areas where children play?)
  
• Controlling moles
  
• Clearing the ditch and ensuring that the flow is not restricted
  
• Preparing the cricket square
  
• Preparing football pitches
  

This is not an exhaustive list.

The objective of the volunteers is to produce a beautiful environment for the residents of the local area to relax and enjoy the facilities.

We are always on the lookout for volunteers to give a few hours of their time to maintain our wonderful fields and woodlands, if you think you can help please contact the committee. See the contacts page for details.
