About SPRA
St Peter's Residents' Association, established in 1977, is open for membership to all residents living in the area bordered to the north by King Street, to the East by Beavor Lane, to the South by the Great West Road and to the West by British Grove. This area is broadly consistent with the area covered by the St.Peter's Conservation Area.
The Association has as its governing objectives the maintenance of the quality of life in the area, seeking to foster community relations as well as maintain and enhance the neighbourhood. It seeks to represent the interests of residents in various ways including welcoming new members, supporting events in the area, commenting on planning issues and both taking part in consultations with and making representations to the Council about local issues.
The Association has links with other local organisations, including the police "Safer Neighbourhood Team", St. Peter's Church and School as well as other residents' associations or groups in the Borough. Overall, the Association seeks to use the skills and experience of its members to maintain and enhance those aspects of the area which make it such an attractive place to live.

SPRA Committee
The Association is run by a Committee of volunteers elected by the membership at an Annual General Meeting which also elects the officers of the Association.
​
Meetings of the Committee are held throughout the year. In addition to the Committee there are also Street Representatives who deliver newsletters and provide support to the Committee.
The Committee welcomes any resident interested in becoming involved. Why not join a meeting to get an idea of what being a Committee Member entails before being either co-opted as a Member or putting yourself forward for election at the next AGM?
