Brixworth Parish Council is seeking the community’s support to deliver a meaningful new feature at Spratton Road Wellbeing Park: the Legend on a Bench, a dedicated space promoting suicide prevention, mental wellbeing and quiet reflection.

This bench is intended to provide a calm and supportive place for anyone affected by suicide, mental health challenges or bereavement. It will include a built‑in light, acting as a gentle beacon at any time of day, and will display details of organisations offering listening, guidance and support. The bench is designed to serve both those who have been affected in the past and those who may need help in the future.

To enable this project to proceed, we must raise 50% of the total cost of the bench and its installation.

Once this target is achieved, Brixworth Parish Council has resolved to fund the remaining 50%, ensuring the project can be completed in full.

We are therefore inviting residents, local groups and supporters to contribute towards our £1,100 fundraising target. Every donation, regardless of size, will help bring this important wellbeing initiative to life for the benefit of the whole community.
