· Tony Wray had volunteered to help the young people running the soup kitchen with aspects of the project in which they needed some support and training, such as customer service.
· Councillor Judith Chilvers and Michael Dyson had taken the lead on the project to reinvigorate Selby Park. Some concerns had been raised about the recent questionnaire on the park circulated by IHL and the perceived lack of action on the project.
· The Development Officer explained that work had been ongoing with the Communities team at Selby on the park regeneration; IHL were going to submit a funding application in the near future to get the area where the old greenhouses were back into use. The Board emphasised about the ongoing involvement of the CEF in the park project.
