Would you like to join the Thornbury Orchard Group? They've just been short listed for an Avon Wildlife Trust award which will shortly go to a public vote.
The group always need new volunteers, and more so than ever at present. They want to attract local people so there's no need for long travel and it's a chance to take pride in your neighbourhood.
Yate Town Council is pleased to announce the Kingsgate Park refurbishment is complete!
Accessibility and sustainability were key to the refurbishment and new design. The new equipment is suitable for a range of different abilities, encourages imagination and social play and features materials that are sustainable and climate resilient.
On a cold but sunny 11 September Thornbury Volunteer Centre hosted its annual Volunteer Fair in the St. Mary Centre. 10 local charitable and community groups had stalls in the Centre with the aim of recruiting volunteers, promoting their organisations and in most cases raising funds. Thornbury Radio played throughout the morning and Town Mayor Cllr. James Murray visited and spoke to all the stallholders.
It was a very social and successful morning which attracted many visitors, resulting in over £130 being raised and at least 33 potential volunteers coming forward, with many more people taking away information.
Our thanks to the St. Mary Centre Management team and South Glos Council for their support of this event.
