The new Hotel development has been quite disruptive for our Barnfield Close Allotment holders over recent months. They’ve also lost parking spaces. The Parish Council have now installed an improved surface within the grounds to make access a little easier. 🥕🥦

With our first ever youth trip it was a hugely successful day for certain Young people from the Parish. For some it was their first time away from Swindon. We managed to see some world famous sights and landmarks and what London has to offer as a city.. #BigBen #BuckinghamPalace #CoventGarden #Hamleys #TrafalgerSquate #Theritz

‘Dragons Den’: Today our Youthworker set up a one day enterprise challenge for young people in our John Moulton Hall, ran by the Platform Project. Young people learnt how to set up a new mug design business. 👍🏼☕️
