The Parish Council has been successful in their project to improve the play area being accepted for the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme during March and April 2019.  They will be competing against 2 other local projects.

The 3 local Tesco branches taking part in the scheme are the Tesco Expresses in Browns Lane, Uckfield and Station Road, Heathfield and the Tesco superstore in Uckfield.
