ADVANCE WARNING - PARKING!!!
Over the next few weekends the local police will be operating in the area to help prevent illegal parking on yellow lines, pavements, junctions and access driveways. This a positive initiative by the local ward PCSO to try and reduce complaints from local residents and also complaints from our visitors when they get ticketed by the very active traffic wardens.
Police cones will be placed in the area Saturday morning to remind everyone of where not to park. We have been told that traffic wardens may be about if people still ignore the road markings or cones.
There is plenty of safe and legal parking along Forest Road just a short walk from the club.
In our own car park please ensure that you don't block other people in and that the ambulance access is clear (New signs are on there way but the gate is in the corner by the telephone mast).
Thank you for your co-operation in advance and please ensure you pass this on to club members and visitors.

Youth Chairman
