    Knowl hill Village Association CAMEO update

    by sglover1, 6 months ago

    Last Thursday 16th May we held our latest monthly Cameo meeting at the Village Hall.

And, of course, tea or apple juice and home-made cakes! Sumayyah and Nicky from the Innovation fund joined us and observed the fantastic interaction between the generations. It is truly heartwarming to see how lively our Cameo session becomes with the children present. Our next session will be a whist drive on 20th... Continue reading

    Oaken Grove Park - New Community Orchard!!

    by Dave Duncan, 7 months ago

    Our first event in Oaken Grove park will be to plant 10 Apple Trees we have been given by Thatchers (the cider makers). The plan is to plant this new small Orchard on Saturday 25th May between 10:30 and 12:30. We have agreed with RBWM a suitable location for the Orchard in the park and have also got access to the nearest water supply which is important as we'll need to set up a rota to water the trees at least once a week during the summer as the first two years are crucial in getting the trees properly...

    Adopt A Street

    by Gill Hudson, 7 months ago
    Holyport Litterati, our local litterpicking group, have now launched their Adopt A Street campaign. In return for free litterpicking kit – a litterpicking stick, gloves, bags and a hoop – local residents pledge to keep part or all of a street as litterfree as possible. We've already 'adopted' large areas of Holyport, including Aysgarth Park and Springfield, and are hoping to extend the scheme to neighbouring villages over the next few months. @HLitterati for updates, and/or contact gill.hudson@holyportcommunitytrust.org if you want to join in!
