Sherwood Rise Residents Association (SRRA)
Join us at Sumac Centre at 7.30pm, to meet new residents, discuss priorities and develop the aims of Sherwood Rise Ressers. We love to organise community events, but we need more folk to get involved.
This is an open meeting to any one who lives in Forest Fields, New Basford, Carrington and surrounding areas.
The purpose of the Residents Association is to also offer people the space to share community concerns, build community relationships and offer informal friendship as people who live in the same neighbourhoods.
Planning meetings continue for Nottingham Green Festival, a sustainable-themed festival, organised by a volunteer cooperative planning group.
The 30th Green Festival wil be held at Nottingham Arboretum on 10th September 2023, so your support is most welcome.
Join us at the Sumac Centre, or get in touch for details to join the online via zoom.
