♻️ Give your foil trays a quick spa treatment before recycling! ✨

Finished with your roast dinner, lasagne or takeaway tray? Don't forget to give your foil trays a quick clean before popping them into your green bin.

🧽 Simply rinse them out in your leftover washing-up water or let the dishwasher do the hard work for you!

Clean foil is much easier to recycle, helping turn your old trays into something new and keeping contamination out of the recycling process.

So, before you bin it, give it a swish, a rinse, or a spin in the dishwasher! 🌍💚

🚢Today we proudly raised the Red Ensign outside the Civic Centre to mark Merchant Navy Day.

Dignitaries gathered for the annual event which celebrates the contribution the Merchant Navy has made, and continues to make, to our country.

As well as playing a vital role keeping supply lines open during both world wars, about 24,000 merchant seafarers today handle more than 95% of the goods traded by the UK.

Wychavon’s Chairman, Cllr Gregory Wilkins, was joined by Tracy Stephens, who spent many years supporting merchant seafarers through her work with the Seafarers' Charity, to raise the flag.

There was also an act of remembrance in tribute to those merchant seafarers who lost their lives in service. ⚓

that disposable nappies take between 300 & 500 years to degrade in a landfill site! So, if Henry VIII had worn disposable nappies, they would still be in a landfill somewhere in the south of England!

👶 Wychavon residents can make the change to reusable nappies which are better for your pocket, your child’s bottom and the environment with a £50 voucher to exchange towards them on website.

Most of us know a man who carries a lot quietly. It might be work stress, money worries, health issues, grief, retirement, relationship changes or simply feeling a bit cut off from other people.

Men are less likely to ask for support early, which is why safe, local spaces like this matter.

Andy from Andy’s Man Club will be hosting a short presentation in Honeybourne to explain how a Men’s Club could work locally and how men from the area can help get one started.

The idea is to create a safe, informal space where local men can meet, talk if they want to, listen if they don’t, and support each other.

Come along on Tuesday, 22 September 2026 at 7:15 pm at Honeybourne Village Hall to hear more.

No pressure to speak. No pressure to sign up. Just come along and listen. All ages welcome

🐉✨ From dragons to magical horses, the creativity inspired by Once Upon a Trail has been incredible.

Children taking part in the trail in Droitwich Spa have created stories filled with magical creatures, exciting adventures and unforgettable characters. One young writer introduced us to Dream, a magical horse who found a forever home after a family set out on a special journey to find her.

These fantastic stories and illustrations show exactly what Once Upon a Trail was designed to do: encourage reading, creativity and imagination while exploring Droitwich Spa together. The trail forms part of activities celebrating the National Year of Reading.

📚 There's still time to take part before the trail ends on 1 September: https://bit.ly/4eXTgy2
