Daisybank Community Interest Company formed

The Daisybank Community Interest Company has now been successfully formed to bid for and (we hope) buy the much-loved Daisybank Field immediately above Pilford Road in Leckhampton. This is an essential step on the way to saving this approach to Leckhampton Hill for the community in general and walkers, children and winter sledgers in particular.

We’re grateful to Cheltenham Borough Council and Leckhampton with Warden Hill Parish Council for their support in securing asset of community value status for the field and then facilitating the six month moratorium on private sale that will enable the CIC to bid for the land. And we’re grateful to the Financial Conduct Authority for allowing us to use a title including the word ‘bank’!

There is an update page on this website here and the CIC itself is looking to set up a website shortly.
