At the time of writing, we are making our final preparations for our annual Community BBQ at the Millennium Green and if you missed it this year, please look out for the date next June. This is a free community event for all and a great place to meet friends new and old.
As summer arrives, the Market House is looking splendid with the hanging baskets and planters full of colourful floral displays. Our thanks go to Tetbury in Bloom and their volunteers, who work tirelessly throughout the town to ensure that Tetbury looks its best and to Tetbury Plumbing and Heating for installing and maintaining the watering system for the baskets.
We continue to look to develop our markets under the Market House. Whilst currently we do not have any vacancies under the Market House on Saturdays, we do have availability on Wednesdays and the upstairs is also available throughout the week. If you are interested in booking a stall or the main Market House upstairs, please call into Scentiments on Church Street where you can book your place – we look forward to welcoming new traders.
I am pleased to advise that this month we were once again able to support the important Holiday at Home event with a grant of £1,500. This is an important community event, tackling isolation and ensuring that those members of our community who do not have the opportunity to get away can have a ‘holiday’ here in their hometown.
