More than 1600 households are members of SPRA and we represent over 50% of the residential properties in Spring Park.
Each month SPRA publishes a quality colour magazine, SPAN, which contains local information, activities and events and this is distributed free to SPRA member households by a dedicated network of over 80 volunteer road stewards.
Apart from SPAN magazine, members also benefit from regular online communications, planning and development news, the Christmas lights and Christmas family trail, Remembrance Day Poppies and so much more.
The area covered by Spring Park Residents’ Association is shown on the map below.
Full Membership is open to anyone living in the area on payment of the annual subscription, currently £6 per household, per annum. Associate Membership is available to those outside the SPRA area (at the same subscription) but carries no voting rights. SPRA is unable to provide advice regarding planning issues for residents outside the Spring Park area. SPRA will only review and act on planning applications relating to the Spring Park area, as per the map above.
To become a member please contact our membership secretary: sprams@btinternet.com
