Parish Council Awarded Lottery Grant for Multi-Use Games Area
The Parish Council is very pleased to report that it has been awarded a grant from the National Lottery Awards for All Programme towards the cost of installing a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA). The MUGA will be sited at Broadwindsor School and will provide a safe, inclusive place for everyone from across the whole Grouped Parish area, to enjoy sport, meet people and have fun.
In partnership with Broadwindsor School, the project has already received funding from the Parish Council, West Dorset District Council and from the FMR Trust and is well on its way to meet its target. However, we do need to do a little bit more and with this in mind, we would like to invite the community to get involved and help. If you have any fundraising ideas or would like to set up your own fundraising event, please do get in touch.

Update on Local Bus Service Timetable
An update on the local bus service timetable – hope this adds clarity and not confusion!
The stop at the White Lion travelling in the Yeovil direction will be renamed ‘The White Lion’- this is the stop currently called ‘Post Office (NW-Bound)’. This will appear on the Traveline website within the next week or so.
A new stop will be created at the junction of Trusthams and Back Lane, this will formalise what is already happening on the ground. Again, this will appear on Traveline within the next week or so and Google Maps in due course. The drivers on Service 40 have been advised to use both of these stops when travelling towards Yeovil. It would be helpful for the drivers if anyone waiting for the bus at the stops puts their arm out to indicate that they want it to stop. The stop in the High Street will continue to be known as ‘The Old Bakery (S-bound)’.
