The Staffordshire BKV competition

The Staffordshire BKV competition has now been launched and is renamed the Best Kept Village Community competition.

https://bestkept.community/?dm_i=1T5F,7SNQ5,WTA23E,VSV8S,1

Haughton has a history of doing well in this competition over many years which means that we have all become a lot older and we need fresh faces with new ideas and a better grip of modern technology to run it. (well any grip of modern technology to be honest). 

Anyone interested in  taking part in the organisation, publicity, planning  or any other role please can you contact the current retiring coordinator Ian Sunley by email.

Lots of past information is available and plenty of support and finance can be provided for this year. 

if you are proud of your village as I know many of us are then please contact me.
