Melbourn Village in Bloom We have received plenty of compliments and positive feedback on the flower tubs around the cross and village centre. It is hoped to build on this excellent beginning and gradually add more features around the village next year. Grateful thanks to all who have been involved with this project, but especially Helen Powell from the Melbourn gardening club and Ray Pritchard, without whom the project would never have happened. Thanks and much appreciation also go to Country Gardens at Frog End who provided plants and planters at generously discounted prices. If you would like to help with this initiative in the future please contact the Melbourn Village Plan on 01763 232692.

Presently, young people who want to join the Scout movement must travel to Orwell where both leaders and facilities exist for Beavers and Cubs. This arrangement melbournmagazine
