Hawk Green COVID Community Commemoration Fund Consultation

Closes 31 Mar 2023

Opened 16 Mar 2023

Overview

Throughout the COVID-19 Pandemic communities have come together to provide support and neighbourliness.

 

As the pandemic has eased, communities across Stockport and nationally have turned their energy towards how they might want to reflect on and commemorate this historical period. This has happened organically without any state intervention.

 

Stockport Council became aware of this move to commemorate experiences from the pandemic, and in 2021 year a working group with representation from all political parties in Stockport was established in response to the desire of residents to reflect on the difficulties and losses of the period and/or to celebrate the way communities came together to help one another during it.

Consequently, a fund was made available to help deliver appropriate localised commemorative schemes across the borough. One such scheme has been suggested for Hawk Green village green, and it is in relation to this scheme that we now seek your views. The proposal has been developed by Stockport Council alongside the Hawk Green Residents Association.

Why your views matter

We are keen that the decision about the scheme is widely supported by the community of Hawk Green and to ensure that the scheme benefits the residents of Hawk Green.
