IT WAS very pleasing that more than 160 people came to the consultation on Saturday about the future of the building and grounds that make up Burnholme Community College.

Several local organisations were keen to be part of the future in that part of Heworth and have many exciting ideas about new community services and activities.

Our thanks to council staff who organised the event and to the many residents who took the time to share their views, ideas and concerns with us.

Coun Tina Funnell, Coun Barbara Boyce, Heworth ward, York.
