KIRKHAM & WESHAM STATION ENHANCEMENT
The Trust and Kirkham in Bloom are organising much-needed improvements to the appearance of the railway station. This will include clearing vegetation from the platform, re-painting the seating, installing raised planting beds and floral display stands, and paintings by local school children in the booking hall. A grant towards materials has been awarded from the Fylde Community Projects Fund, and a meeting with the Northern Rail station manager was held recently to discuss the project.

WESHAM C.E PRIMARY SCHOOL


Pupils from the school add colour by planting tubs and hanging baskets in the front playground.

Well done !
