This week (Monday 3rd to Sunday 9th June) marks National Volunteer Week and it celebrates the amazing contributions that volunteers make to communities all across the UK. Our Community Development Coordinator, Barbara Stephens, writes about why volunteers matter, and how to get involved.
We are counting down the days to our Welland Summer Bash on the 23rd June. We are searching for volunteers, tombola and raffle donations, and those with baking skills who would be willing to provide a cake... see below for more detail.
We currently have three vacancies on our Parish Council and we are looking for people who are interested in joining. Our newest Parish Councillor, Rachel Sampson, gives an insight below as to why she decided to put herself forward for co-option, and what her experience has been like so far.
We promised you new ways to stay in touch, so without further ado, we are unveiling our new WhatsApp Channel!
We had a great turnout at our Community Litter Pick on the 4th May, and did a wonderful job at tidying up the streets of Welland. If you'd like to be involved in our next litter pick, please get in touch!
Welcome to our new website! We have migrated over to a new platform and will be updating the website further over the coming weeks. Our vision is that the website will be an information hub for the communities that we serve, as well as providing updates about the work of the parish council.
