Hull

Pickering Road Community Orchard has been nominated for the UK’s Best Park 2019 and local MP Emma Hardy is encouraging constituents to support the park in a UK-wide vote organised by green space charity, Fields in Trust.

A total of 364 public nominations for parks and green spaces across the UK have been made – and 30 of these are in the Yorkshire and the Humber region – each one a much-loved part of its local community. Now it is time to choose the winners via an online public vote at www.fieldsintrust.org/best-park/yorkshire until noon on Monday 19th August.

Local MP Emma Hardy says she is utterly appalled and what teachers are telling with regard to school funding.

The MP for Hull West and Hessle comments come following a survey which detailed the funding crisis within our schools.
