New Community Notice Board installed to support North Lynn residents
2026-02-27
A new community notice board has been installed at the former Community Centre in North Lynn, helping local residents stay informed and connected with what’s happening in their area.
The notice board has been donated by Purdy Contracts (part of Sureserve), working in partnership with Freebridge Community Housing, to support the work of RISE North Lynn, a community‑led group focused on bringing people together and strengthening local connections.
The notice board will act as a central hub for sharing information about local events, activities, groups and opportunities across North Lynn. It provides an accessible way for residents of all ages to find out what’s going on in their neighbourhood and how they can get involved.
Glen Soper, Build Operations Manager from Purdy Contracts said: “We’re delighted to support North Lynn and the wider community. Local notice boards play an important role in sharing information and encouraging community involvement.”
RISE North Lynn is a positive community initiative that celebrates local pride and encourages collaboration, inclusion and wellbeing. The group works to create opportunities for people to connect, support one another and contribute to positive change within the area.
A spokesperson for Freebridge Community Housing added: “Strong communities are built on connection, communication and collaboration and this new notice board will make it easier for residents to stay informed, get involved and feel part of what’s happening locally.”
The installation of the new notice board reflects a shared commitment from Purdy Contracts, Freebridge Community Housing and RISE North Lynn to support community engagement and strengthen neighbourhood ties.
Rev Jon Price added: “This notice board gives us a visible, accessible way to share what’s happening in North Lynn and invite people to take part. It’s about creating opportunities, celebrating our community and helping residents feel connected and included.”
