Cae Ddol Park PB in Ruthin

In 2009, the council was forced to demolish the paddling pool in Cae Ddol park, resulting in passionate objections from many residents. The council decided to meet with residents and offer them £25,000 to decide how to spend this money in the park.

The Village Spend, Coedpoeth, North Wales

Together Creating Communities, a broad based community organisation, together with Help the Aged and the Community Council in Coedpoeth, used precept funds in a PB process.
