New Play area – Honeyholes Lane

At the time of printing the new play area on Honeyholes Lane should be all installed and being enjoyed by family and friends.  This play area includes pieces of equipment that are fully accessible to all.  Hopefully this will enable families and friends to enjoy time together.  When weather permits, it is planned to put a sensory garden in the corner of the playarea.

 

Dunholme Community Connexions

This is a new, free community initiative, which will be run in connection with the NHS Mental Health & Well-Being Transformation Programme and Bridge in Lincoln, and is intended as a friendly, safe and relaxing space where you can simply come along, enjoy a free tea or coffee and a chat, whilst listening to some relaxing music.  (You are welcome to bring your own lunch!)   

If you need some extra help and support with Benefit or Debt Advice, Job Applications, C.V. Writing, Anxiety Issues or something else you might be struggling with at the moment or just want someone to talk to then please come along and if not, then that is fine, just come along anyway. We will have a number of professional people on site at different times, with experience and expertise in a wide range of issues, who will be able to help you in a confidential and accessible way.    

 

So if you are out of work, lonely, anxious or simply want to get out of the house and meet some new people, then why not pop down to the Jubilee Room at the rear of Dunholme Village Hall, Honeyholes Lane on a Wednesday lunchtime, anytime between 11 am and 1 pm.

Water leak on Lincoln Road

The necessary contractor has undertaken maintenance work to the water leak on the corner of Lincoln Road.  At the minute, the issue seems have been resolved.  The Parish Council are now looking at investigatory work and possible maintenance work at the spring at the bottom of Holmes Lane.  We would like to get the flow reinstated eventually.
