On 4 May, 2 individuals entered the grounds of Peak Park and enacted several acts of vandalism. Unfortunately, as some items cannot be repaired, only replaced, the cost is looking to be in the region of several thousand pounds.
As a small, independent, local charity, this places an unnecessary burden on us to organise and undertake the remedial work required.
We have worked hard over the last year to improve site upkeep and do our part to help Newmilns look and feel that bit nicer. We plan to continue this work despite setbacks like this and would welcome any volunteers who would be able to assist for a few hours either as a once off, or more regularly. If you can help, please contact [email protected]
The matter of damages is with the Police, who are following up on the leads provided by CCTV and items left behind by the vandals.
