Any interested parties are to meet in the village hall car park at 9-45am for a 10-00 am start. Volunteers will need sturdy footwear and clothes that are hard wearing. Golves and eye protection will be provided.

Volunteers will be using gardening equipment and full training for health and safety and risk assessments will be talked through on the day, with print outs to read.

Please contact the Clerk for more information clerk@newboroughandboroughfen-pc.gov.uk

The Parish Council will be distributing questionnaires for you to have YOUR say on projects or improvements you would like to see in the village.

Cllrs will be trying very hard to deliver these to you all door-to-door and leaflets will be available at various collection points around Newborough such as Mandairs shop and the chemist.

A ‘dropoff’ box has now been left in the new telephone box book exchange with a 28th October deadline.

Huge thanks to the ‘Newborough and Borough Fen Gardening Club’ for their kind donation towards our newly installed Jubilee bench at Soke Road corner.

The Council also have a ‘Lest We Forget’ bench which is due to arrive soon and will be positioned near to the memorial tree at the same location.

Newborough and Borough Fen Parish Council are now featured in the Village Tribune, with local articles and community news.

Copies have been left at the village hall, The Bull pub, the new telephone box, the village chemist, Mandairs, the Cricket Club and many of the businesses located within the village. If you would like to have a hand delivered copy or are able to help with delivering this new magazine to residents door-to-door, please contact the Clerk.
