CLOCK
TOWER FLOWER BASKETS
Residents
in Gatley are looking to bring some colour into the

baskets to be placed on the clocktower. But concerns
have been expressed by council officers over the method
of fixing the baskets to the tower, which is a listed
building. However, they have been told that flowers
will be introduced in the area surrounding the clock
- if not on the tower itself.
A final decision will be reached early in May.

WELLSPRING
CHARITY CYCLE EVENT
Brian
Anthony who is a registered blind software engineer
at Intervoice Brite in Gatley, is leading an epic cycle
event for the Stockport based homeless charity Wellspring.
The
event is a challenging coast-to-coast and back again
ride from
Gretna Green to Newcastle and will take place on the
weekend
June 16th/17th.
Brian
is in the process of publicising the event with the
media, and contacting local companies to see if they
can support Wellspring by pledging some money towards
the Wellspring building fund, or volunteer a cyclist
to participate, or both!
Any companies that support the event will be displayed
on the support vehicles which will be in the background
of any media interviews, and also receive a certificate
from Wellspring to show their appreciation for any support.
The
Wellspring charity is in desperate need of new premises
to provide better facilities and achieve it's vision
of a purpose built building that can support the needy
and homeless in and around Stockport.
Currently it serves hot meals twice a day, 365 days
a year, provides changes of clothes, blankets and access
to a shower, but would like to extend it's facilities
to provide medical and counseling care.
