Broadwas Village Hall

/in /by

We have some exciting events to share this month, but first… 
  1.  Bouncy Castles are now approved for use inside the Village Hall. After closely working with a local company – Castle Kings of Worcester –  they can provide two castles which will safely fit in the hall. But worry, we as a committee have listened to the feedback recieved and are working to expand the use of the Hall to be more accomodating in the near future.
  2. Soft Mat Bowls has arrived! Contact the Broadwas Sports Association for more details.
  3. Thinking of hiring the Hall for a Party? Then look no further! As requested we have brought together a series of key information to help you plan the party of the year! PARTY HIRE | Broadwas Village Hall

Coronation Living Heritage Fund

/in /by
Create a Coronation Community Orchard with new grant

Local communities could receive up to £10,000 towards the cost of a Coronation Community Orchard thanks to a new tree planting grant.

Between £200 and £10,000 is available to support the creation of community orchards within the district, including costs for trees, protection, fencing and installation.

The aim of the fund is for local community orchard creation projects to provide a lasting commemoration of this Coronation year, and to further the King’s lifelong work conserving the natural environment.

The UK Government has provided a total of £2.5 million in funding to local governments, through The Coronation Living Heritage Fund (CLHF), which celebrates the coronation of King Charles III and supports tree planting projects across England.

We are inviting applications from groups including schools, residents’ associations, community groups, charities, businesses, and parish/town councils to create community orchards on private or public land, which provide community access and engagement opportunities.

People should visit www.malvernhills.gov.uk/clhf for more information about the grant, selection criteria, and to apply.
