Good afternoon,

This is a reminder that the consultation on the improvements of the play area and landscaping at the Champion Hill Estate will be taking place tomorrow (Wednesday 31 August) at the Albrighton Centre (room G15). It is a drop-in session and will be open from 4pm-7pm.

You will be able to view the current proposals and have your say as we look to create a final design. It would great to hear from as many local residents as possible.

Please let me know if you have any questions ahead of the consultation.

Best wishes,

Georgie

Please note that the Champion Hill Estate Improvements Consultation will close on Sunday 17 July 2022.

Dear Subscriber,

We’re proposing to build new council homes at the Seavington House site as part of our commitment to providing more quality council homes across the borough. We’ve committed to creating 11,000 new council homes by 2043 – a big goal, but crucial if we’re going to tackle the housing crisis and ensure our residents have quality homes they can be proud of, now and in the future.

The scheme is currently in planning and it is anticipated that a decision will be made by the planning committee whether to grant permission to build the homes during the summer.

If permission is granted to build the new homes we would like to carry out some estate improvements on the Champion Hill Estate which includes works to improve the existing play area.

We have a limited budget so this could affect the scope and type of improvements which could be carried out.

The area where the improvements could be carried out is within the red dashed line boundary shown on the map below.

We would like to hear your views

1. What changes or improvements would you like to see in this area?

For example, seating, planting, paths and pavements, lighting or would you like the existing play area to be improved.

2. Are there external areas you feel could benefit from security improvements?
