They were welcomed by Carol Prendergast, Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Horticulturist Elaine Atkinson. The visit had a twofold purpose, one to seek guidance and expert information to help Man Alive prepare for projects within the grounds of Centre4, and to find out more about volunteering for Green Futures on their new after school and holiday club projects with Oasis Academy, Nunsthorpe.<\/p>\n<p>Man Alive members, who meet at 10 am on Wednesdays at Centre 4 on Wootton Road, are keen to get involved with these exciting new Green Futures projects that include children and wider family members. The projects will encourage communication, personal development, and community spirit with the ultimate aim to enter the \u2018It\u2019s Your Neighbourhood\u2019 awards.<\/p>\n<p>Members of the Man Alive group enjoyed their visit and were surprised to find that the area known as the Willow Woodland has a hide for bird watching.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a man aged over 50 and interested in joining the Man Alive group then contact Positive Activities on 01472 236677 or <a href=\"mailto:enquiries@positiveactivities.org\">enquiries@positiveactivities.org<\/a> or if you want to find out more about the work of Green Futures you can contact them on 01472 870609<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-14107\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-14107\" src=\"http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"ma\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma-768x432.jpg 768w, http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/vanel.org.uk\/va\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/ma.jpg 1246w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Positive Activities<\/strong> deliver a wide range of creative, sporting and adventurous activity based programmes.
