The cinder running track at Paisley Park fell into disrepair around 30 years ago and is now heavily overgrown. The Paisley Park Board wishes to restore this to use, with associated works including lighting. Some funding has been secured from Belfast City Council, with match funding being sought from the Department for Communities, but there will still be a shortfall.
Albertville Harriers & Athletics Club has agreed to base themselves at Paisley Park if the track is restored. The track will also be available for use by other sports clubs, schools and the general public. All donations will become part of the community contribution from Albertville Harriers towards these works.
