With the rise of rural house prices in recent years and the lack of available properties, local people are being forced to move away from their community in order to find housing they can afford. Daventry District has a growing population, to add to this the structure and size of households is also changing. When new households are formed or circumstances change, people may find their home unsuitable and it is therefore important that there is an adequate amount of housing to accommodate their needs. The provision of affordable housing is high on Daventry District Council’s agenda, as part of our vision to build a better district it is prioritised under the objective: “Healthy, Safe and Strong Communities and Individuals”. To this end the Council has been undertaking a rolling programme of affordable housing provision, which is based on robust evidence of housing need and local information – provided by Housing Needs Surveys. This report summarises the findings of the Housing Needs Survey in Holdenby Parish, undertaken in March/April 2012. Strategic and Planning Context Daventry District Council has a number of policies and strategies to help deliver housing in both planning policy and housing strategy terms.

  • Recollections of the First Hundred Years of Badby and Fawsley Women’S
    Recollections of the first hundred years of Badby and Fawsley Women’s Institute 1918 – 2018 Preface The original purpose of the Women's Institute was to bring together women of the countryside who might otherwise be isolated. Badby and Fawsley W.I. was formed in February, 1918 by Lady Julia Knightley of Fawsley Hall. It enabled local women to meet with others who lived in a rural setting. Activities and meetings leant toward domestic matters. Lady Knightley wished that the ladies of Badby be joined together by the 'common ideals of truth, tolerance, justice and friendship'. Protocol had to be, and was, adhered to rigidly, with some members getting irate if it was not. Rules were kept. Institutes at the beginning were considerably helped and financed by the Board of Agriculture but by 1922 the Institutes had to stand on their own feet. Lady Knightley was, inevitably, chosen as the first President. She remained President for 15 years until she moved from Fawsley. It had been her drive and energy which had caused the group’s inception because she strongly believed that belonging to the Institute would “brighten the lives and widen the outlook of the women who lived in the country districts.” Sadly all Archive material from early years has been mislaid. It was thought that it had been lodged at the County Archives but searches there have drawn a blank. 1 Meetings The first meetings were held in the ‘club room’ of the Maltsters, and then in a small room which was formerly the infant’s school room.
