GRASS Cliftonville

Not for profit social enterprise that runs lots of events at The Oval Bandstand in Margate

Hearing of Martin Parr’s passing reminded us of the photos he took at the Oval Bandstand in 1986 a nostalgic seaside moment displayed at the Centre Pompidou & Tokyo Photographic Art Museum. Part of his Home & Abroad collection, it’s a small but special piece of our local story🙏

Dog fouling is blighting our parks & beaches, yet @ThanetCouncil issued just 37 fines since 2016, despite 622 reports and only 3 penalties in 5 years (a 0.48% success rate!).

It’s time for real enforcement 👉 https://t.co/UgbbzGXUC3

🗣️ It’s time for action in Thanet! 💩

Our parks & beaches are being blighted by dog fouling and enforcement is nowhere to be seen.

Sign the petition demanding TDC act now: fines, patrols & accountability.

Dog fouling at The Oval is out of control. These photos are from just one lawn today. It’s unhygienic, unsafe & unfair on our community.We’ve funded bins ourselves, but TDC still won’t delegate PSPO powers so we can act. Councillors & Polly Billington MP we need your backing now

We’re saddened to share the passing of Betty Ward, co-founder of GRASS Cliftonville and a true community champion.

Her legacy lives on in the Cliftonville Games, community gardens, and so much more.

Heartbreaking Theft at The Oval

Six memorial rose bushes, planted in memory of loved ones, have been stolen. Someone came prepared with a shovel and bucket, knowing exactly what they were doing.

We’re heartbroken. If you saw anything, reach out. We deserves better. #Margate
