ARTISTIC residents in a Southampton district can help shape the future of their neighbourhood this weekend.

Workshops take place in Northam on Sunday to design sculptures and street art.

They will form part of the Homezone scheme, which will see new road layouts to favour pedestrians.

The pieces will also appear in the £100,000 Doorstop Green project, when a former garage in the heart of the estate will be transformed into a green area

It is being developed with a nautical theme to reflect Northam's maritime history.

The art workshops will take place from 2pm-4pm in Augustine Road.
