PlaceMaking Grant

This post has nothing to do with criminology ... but everything to do with community.
As a recently reborn Novocastrian I'm very happy to have been notified by Newcastle Council of my successful application for a PlaceMaking Grant.
Living in flashily-named Sparke Street, I called the PlaceMaking event Bright Sparkes. I'll be organising the neighbourhood to do a lantern-making workshop and then hang the lanterns outside the houses one evening, close the street and have a lantern-lit community gathering. Should be fun. Thanks, BJ, for the inspiration.
