Following major improvement works on Cotton Lane and in the local woods, Riverside have commissioned an artist to work with the local schools and the wider community on an arts project to further improve the woods and make it a place to visit. 

Bernadette Hughes from Rainford Design Studios will be holding a number of free art sessions over the coming months to create pebble mosaics, bird/ bat boxes and fairy houses to go throughout the woods.  If you are interested in being involved in this great project and want to be creative come along to the first session being held on Saturday 12^th December 2015 12pm-4pm at the Christmas Fair in The Lodge Community Centre, Church Way, WA7 5YP (opposite Woodside School). 

There will be a number of stalls and Christmas Carols for all the family!  For more information on how you can get involved in this project please contact Bernadette Hughes on 07811 655 178 or Laura Woodward, Community Engagement Officer at Riverside on 0345 111 0000
