Burton Bradstock Playgroup.

Following a recent change in leadership and a number of children reaching school age, the

playgroup numbers have fallen leading to a few short term financial worries.  If you do have

children of playgroup age, or have any ideas for fund raising please consider contacting the

playgroup.  The Parish Council has agreed to give the playgroup a donation of £500 to help

out, but if the group is not utilised by the village it may be sadly lost.
