Jackey Bakers is a public open space, given to the people of Ramsgate, by Dame Janet back in 1924. 

Over the years, we have seen a decline in the way Jackey Bakers is managed. 

We want a safe place to be able to walk our dogs, somewhere the children can run around and improved facilities for the weekly football matches. 

Jackey Bakers is lacking bins, both normal waste and dog waste. More bins should improve the amount of littering that is left on a daily basis. 

The changing room has had no hot water or electricity for a couple of years, meaning the footballers have nowhere to change or clean up. 

The football pitches are in a very poor state, not being rolled and the grass not being cut, especially around the goals. 
This is causing injuries each week. 

Car parking is also another concern. Planning permission has previously been requested for a hard standing car park to be built at the Sainsbury’s end of Jackey Bakers, yet has never happened. 
Highfield Road is becoming congested due to the amount of cars being parked there on a Sunday morning, and only recently caused issues for emergency services to get through. 

Each week the pitches are in use, funds are accumulating, but where is this money going? Some weeks, this amounts to just over £400! 

So let’s all come together and make Jackey Bakers fit for purpose, by the people of Ramsgate, for the people of Ramsgate!
