Over 500 residents of Rossington have their say on community funding for village
A Doncaster MP is preparing for the next phase of the Pride in Rossington project which will bring millions to the village over the next few years.
Pride in Rossington will bring community led improvements to the village over the next decade.
The final session of community engagement has taken place at Rossington All Saints.
Members of the community shared their thoughts on how they think the money should be spent.
These sessions have been led by MP Lee Pitcher, he is passionate about local people’s views being heard.
Speaking after the event, Lee Pitcher said: “Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to attend a session or share their views so far.
“It's been incredibly valuable to hear directly from residents about what matters most to them and what they would like to see improved in Rossington.
"This funding is designed to be community-led, and it's important that we build a clear picture of local priorities before decisions are made."
Now that the sessions have come to an end Lee Pitcher will compile the feedback given from over 500 people.
He will then take this report to the Neighbourhood Board to help inform where funding should be allocated.
The board will include Lee Pitcher, business owners, community representatives, residents and others who have a deep tie to the village.
It will be led by an independent chair - the board will be fully confirmed by July 17, 2026.
If there are any residents who have not participated in the sessions in person they can still make their voice heard via an online survey here.
The MP said: “ This is a significant opportunity for Rossington, and there is still time for residents to have their say.
"I would encourage anyone who hasn't yet completed the survey to do so."
