POULTON with Fearnhead Parish Council has awarded £500 to support a youth club at Fearnhead Cross.

Running every Thursday, the club caters for 11 to 18-year-olds, between 6.30pm and 9.30pm.

It was started with a grant from Affinity Sutton Housing.

Clr Graham Friend (Poulton North – LAB) said: “I’m delighted with both the success of the club and the parish’s support.

“This will help massively, and also assist with sustaining the club into future years.”
