• COMMUNITY HALL TAKES OFF WITH AIRPORT DONATION

A Doncaster community group is on cloud nine-hundred-and fifty after receiving a donation of almost £1,000 to help improve access to its village hall.

Blaxton Community  Hall has used the £950 from Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield's Community Investment Fund to improve the appearance and accessibility of the area outside the hall for users and local residents.

The airport's Community Investment Fund has invested more than £60,000 into its surrounding areas since 2001.  The airport was opened in 2005.

Peter Oliver, treasurer of the Blaxton Community Hall Committee, said: "We are very appreciative of the donation made by Robin Hood Airport.

"It has enabled us to improve the surrounding environment and has also made the area much safer for our hall users".

Clare Nelson, Robin Hood Airport Doncaster Sheffield, said "The airport is committed to supporting local communities in the area and over the years many community, social and environmental projects and schemes have benefited from the fund and we hope many more will continue to do so in the future."
