Three grants since 2020 totalling £11,144. Total project cost £20,160
This ambitious project by Uffington Parish Council has made footpaths around the village easier to access and walkable by people of all ages; this is excellent for community involvement and therefore beneficial for the health and well-being of residents.
Across three projects, 25 stiles have been replaced with gates, path surfaces improved and old footbridges replaced.
The Parish Council has told us that the number of people using the footpaths in the centre of the village has increased dramatically since the new gates were installed, particularly as using the footpath enables parents and children to avoid using narrow roads with no pavements for the journey to / from school.
