Big News is Preston Park this month – many of you will know that we have recently completed the circular paving in Preston Park, allowing access to more of our residents and making the walk down the muddy hill much safer.

We would like to thank Geoff Turbott for his continuing support and hard work in helping us to make this a reality – his commitment to the charity and to this area in Tetbury is greatly appreciated – thank you Geoff!

Finally, I am pleased to advise that the following grant was made this month:

·       £400 to the Friends of Tetbury Hospital, covering the costs for producing leaflets for their Open Gardens Fundraising Event in June.

Dates for your Diary

·       Monday 26th May – Woolsack Day and Races - where there will be a display on the Feoffees and Thirteen

·       Saturday 14th June at 6pm – Feoffee & Thirteen Community BBQ – this is a free community event

·       Saturday 6th September at 9.30am – Annual Beating of the Bounds – meet under Bath Bridge and followed by the presentation of the Feoffee accounts in The Market House with coffee and biscuits

·        Saturday 13th/Sunday 14th September – Heritage Weekend – The Market House will be open with displays

If you think we may be able to help you or if you are a member of a group who could be helped with a grant, please visit our website - www.thefeoffeesoftetbury.co.uk – where you can also find out more about the work we do in our town. Finally, if you would like to volunteer to help us, please get in touch or speak to one of our members.
