A FURNESS park community group is appealing for residents to get behind their latest push for funding.

Ford Park Community Group is in the running to win a share of Persimmon Homes’ Building Futures £1million pot.

If successful, the group are hoping to improve the existing play area by adding equipment suitable for disabled children and toddlers.

They need to secure as many online votes as possible.

Anyone wishing to support the appeal should go to www.persimmonhomes.com/building-futures/.
