What Exactly Does E.V.P.A. Do?
Here’s a snapshot of how we’re keeping Eastham thriving:
- Planning & Trees: We keep a close eye on planning applications and tree work proposals in or near the Conservation Area, making sure the village’s charm is protected.
- Saving Icons: That red phone box in the village centre? We saved it! Thanks to one of our members, it’s been restored and now serves as an iconic book exchange.
- Speed Watch: We run a Speed Watch team to remind drivers to stick to the 20mph limit and keep our roads and pedestrians safe.
- Friends of Torr Park: We lend a hand to The Friends of Torr Park
- The Graveyard Team: We support St Mary’s Graveyard Team in their efforts to maintain this peaceful space.
- Village in Bloom: Those 29 superb hanging baskets you see each summer? That’s us—buying (we ask for donations), hanging, watering, and maintaining them.
- Tulip Mania: We’ve planted 3,000 tulip bulbs.
- Victorian Pleasure Gardens: We are leading the charge to preserve what’s left of Eastham’s unique Victorian Pleasure Gardens including the bear pit, the fountains, the pier and the ticket office.
- History Keepers: We curate and maintain Eastham’s History Archive, safeguarding our past for future generations.
- Reopening an important public footpath: Campaigning to reopen the shoreline public footpath between Bromborough Pool and Eastham Pier, with hopes of extending it to the Boat Museum.
- Litter Heroes: We’re looking to launch a litter-picking team to keep the village looking its best.
