The community association was formed in the 1950s in order to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Fairlands, Liddington Hall, Gravetts Lane, Holly Lane and the Aldershot Road from Liddington Hall Drive to Holly Lane. For a full copy of our objectives please see our constitution. Download a copy here.
It is based around the community centre in Fairlands Avenue, which provides an umbrella for various groups.
All sections and affiliated clubs are there for the benefit of the community and would welcome new members—follow the links on the Activities page on the navigation on the top left of this page to join these groups.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
Did you know that we have to pay VAT on membership fees. So for full adult membership of £17 the FLGCA only gets £14.17 and for senior £12 membership we get just £10.00.
For 2024 we received just over £6,000 (after VAT) in subscriptions. Vital funds but we need more.
Even with all our hall hire fees and support from the bar we ended 2024 with £2,000 less in the bank than we started with. At that rate, with liabilities, we could run out of cash inside 10 years and the community centre would have to close down.
We recently had a professional building survey and estimates from that suggest we need at least £50,000 in the next one to two years, for maintenance and updating.
We do not have the funds.
We can and will try to raise them but that will not happen without YOUR SUPPORT. Please encourage membership.
​​Do you have skills you can offer?
Might you be willing to occasionally volunteer for work parties, fund raising events or in any other way?
If so please make contact.

The recommendation is for REFUSAL and the full details of this can be found in the Officer Report. I will be attending the meeting to agree with the REFUSAL of the application.
As well as objections received from some 100 residents, several of the statutory authorities also raised concerns and objections. Although Worplesdon Parish Council supported it.
