The Defra Future Farming Resilience Fund is providing support to farmers and land managers across Herefordshire, Yorkshire, and North Buckinghamshire/Northamptonshire. You are invited to join the programme. The challenges caused by Coronavirus, extreme weather and the forthcoming changes to agricultural support as a result of leaving the EU may put significant stress on our businesses. This could leave many farmers and land managers in England needing to adapt their business model and carefully considering options for the future. This programme will provide information, tools, advice and support to farmers through this period of change. The full programme includes: • Resilience planning – introduction to tools and policy changes. Join a session led by The Anderson Centre who will introduce some tools and tips on reviewing business performance. You will also receive insight on the future changes to agricultural policy and the opportunities and threats these may bring. • One-to-one farm resilience reviews. A specialist business adviser from The Anderson Centre will support you in identifying the potential risks and opportunities for your business. • Your own business plan. A personalised plan identifying actions to help mitigate the risks your business faces and to support you in its implementation. • Group Workshops. Bringing together local farmers to talk about the risks and opportunities, to share ideas and learn from each other. All the advice provided will be completely free of charge, but you will be required to complete an agreement letter, plus a survey at the start and the end of the programme. Places are limited so booking is essential and unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that everyone who registers will be offered a place. Coronavirus During Coronavirus restrictions we will be able to deliver some services remotely using telephone and other electronic methods from mid-May onwards. While the future of the social distancing restrictions is still uncertain, we do expect to be able to provide face to face support on-farm as the programme progresses. How can you get involved?

  • Whitbourne WTW Opened April 1966
    WHITBOURNE WATER TREATMENT WORKS £857,000 water scheme for Bromyard area Whitbourne Water Pumping Station and Treatment Works at the time of its official opening in April 1966 This scheme was first conceived as a result of the government survey of Herefordshire’s water supply needs in the post WW2 era, but it was not approved by the Minister of Housing and Local Government until 1960 when the Herefordshire Water Board was put in place. At the ‘opening’ of the works, which had been designed to supply water to 12,000 people in the Bromyard, Ledbury, Hereford, Leominster & Wigmore rural districts, and meet about one eighth of Herefordshire’s water supply needs, it was described as one of the most modern waterworks in the west Midlands. The pumping and filtration plant had the capacity to supply 805,000 gallons a day from the River Teme (a tributary of the River Severn) through a network of 70 miles of pipeline. It was the single biggest scheme completed by the Herefordshire Water Board. Chairman, Mr SR Southall, said that in the past six years the Board had laid 350 miles of mains - ‘as much as the councils ever laid from the dawn of time until we took over’. He said that the board had made water available to 25,000 people previously without mains supply. To do this, 17 pumping stations and 18 water reservoirs had been built. He added that in addition, ten more pumping stations, six reservoirs and 150 miles of mains were then under construction. ** £100 in 1966 = c£1,585 in 2020.

  • Case Studies from Across Rural England of How Rural Communities Have Worked Together During Lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together
    Case Studies from across Rural England of how rural communities have worked together during lockdown Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together RURAL COMMUNITIES PULLING TOGETHER This booklet details the Case Studies that were provided to the Rural Services Network during the lockdown period of Covid-19 (2020). Organisations were encouraged to respond to three questions: • What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown? • What national initiative would help your organisation do things better in your rural area? • Any other comments? Not all respondents answered all the questions, detailed in this booklet are the answers provided by organisations. Some answers have been edited or amended for reasons of Data Protection and to comply with our constitution. Councillor Cecilia Motley, the Chair of the Rural Services Network said: ‘It is heartwarming to see how our rural communities have come together to support their most vulnerable residents in this difficult time. However, our communities raise a number of important issues which need attention and support from Government. Our rural communities should not be left behind.’ 2 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together Contents: East Midlands Page 4 East of England Page 15 North East Page 31 North West Page 34 South East Page 38 South West Page 53 West Midlands Page 71 Yorkshire & Humber Page 80 3 Rural Services Network – Rural Communities Pulling Together EAST MIDLANDS REGION Parish / Local Group: East Drayton Parish Council Region: East Midlands What initiatives has your local rural community set up in response to COVID-19 national lockdown?
