'Market Drayton deserves far better than this' MP battles to bring sports field back to scratch

An MP said she s committed to fighting for an improved sports ground in a north Shropshire town after she said the current leisure facilities were "not fit for purpose".

This has contributed to problems residents face in seeing a GP, putting strain on local services, and led to community campaigns to protect important green land at Damson Wood. The news is not all bad, with a Premier League fund and Marches Energy Support Grant seeing new £70,000 floodlights installed.
