Community and Family Hub for rural parishes

A new Community and Family Hub run by the community, for the community, will open its doors in Market Drayton on Wednesday April 15th at the Festival Drayton Centre. 

Operating monthly as a drop-in, the Market Drayton and Rural Parishes Community and Family Hub is run by local volunteers. It will provide a safe, caring space where residents can come and share their concerns and needs, get a comforting drink and a place to relax and unburden.  No rush, no allocated time, just a friendly person wanting to listen and help.

The 2026 Great British Spring Clean

A country-wide mission to tackle litter

From 13th – 29th March it is the Great British Spring Clean to encourage residents to get involved in tidying up their environment and keeping it litter-free

Most residents of our village are careful not to drop litter on the streets and in the shared areas. Unfortunately people driving through our village are not so careful.

If you can, please take the time to safely remove any litter you encounter whilst walking around the village next month and throughout the year.

The Great British Spring Clean is a timely reminder but keeping our environment litter free is something we should all pride ourselves in doing all year round.
