Following The Mayor of Newbury’s Colouring Competition, we are pleased to announce our winner!

On Sunday 13 October Newbury Town Council are asking the community to come along and help to plant 1000 spring bulbs at Middle Close and Glendale Avenue.

The Newbury in Bloom Presentation evening took place at the Corn Exchange, Newbury on 18 September 2024. The Mayor of Newbury, Cllr Andy Moore, together with the sponsors, presented the awards to the very deserving winners. There were a total of 38 entries received for the eight categories this year.

For its 19th blue plaque, Newbury Town Council is commemorating The Plaza, still well remembered as an entertainment venue by many Newbury residents. The plaque will be unveiled by Cllr Andy Moore OBE, Mayor of Newbury, at 11am on Wednesday 28 August 2024.

The Mayor of Newbury is excited to announce a fun colouring-in competition, perfect for keeping children entertained during the summer holidays. 

Newbury Town Council are making an additional investment in our football pitches at Victoria Park, City Recreation Ground and Wash Common for the coming season.

Victoria Park & City Recreation Ground have once again been awarded ‘Green Flag’ status for 2024/25, recognised by the Green Flag Award Scheme as one of the very best in the world.

Today we honour and reflect upon the significant events that took place 80 years ago on D-Day and remember those who lost their lives to ensure freedom for us all. #DDay80thAnniversary
