Palatine Recreation Ground Grants from a council s Making Spaces fund are helping to make improvements to parks and open spaces across the district. Launched two years ago but delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the aim of the £100,000 fund is to make the Lancaster district a cleaner and greener place to live and spend time. It does not replace existing maintenance by the council but aims to inspire community groups to ‘add value’ to existing public spaces or create new ones. Successful projects to date have included footpath and drainage improvements at Lune Bank Gardens, and Piccadilly Plaza on Scotforth Road has received new plants and benches.

Needless to say, it’s a strange time for travel.
The coronavirus pandemic has upended virtually every aspect of our lives, including where we travel, who we travel with, and what we do when we get there. The pandemic canceled most of our travel plans in 2020, and trying to predict what 2021 will look like is futile.
All the confusion makes local and regional travel that much more appealing.
This year is a perfect opportunity to explore parts of Oregon and Washington you’ve never seen, the places you’ve always meant to go, and the attractions you never knew were there. Take the time to see the more remote reaches of our region or see sights close by that you’ve somehow always missed.
