Step back in time (and an opportunity to dress up) on 9 & 10 May and  Swing with Glen Miller and friends for a night of glamour and celebration with  the fabulous Midland Concert Orchestra at the 1940s Blitz  Ball.https://bromsgrovearts.org.uk/events/

With hit songs from the 1950s to present day, THE PRONOUNCED provided non-stop entertainment when they took to the stage at the Village Hall on Saturday 18 April.  

Their THROUGH THE DECADES SHOW included songs from Chuck Berry, Dusty Springfield, The Beetles, Abba, Donna Summer, Elton John, Guns & Roses, Robbie Williams, Dolly Parton, Mark Ronson, Oasis and many more artists.  The show included humour, props, hats, a costume change, and many people taking to the dance floor.  

Everyone left the building saying how good the band was and asking if we will have them back; they will be returning on Saturday 22nd May 2027.

Videos from the show can be found on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/fairfieldinformation

The Coronation Orchard is starting to bloom, and looks lovely.  Like last year, the blooms will need to be picked before they turn into applets, this allows the trees to retain energy and grow stronger; this may be the last year we have to do this, next year we may be able to let the apples form.   Thanks you Carol H for the photos.

The National Farmers Union encourages farmers and members of the public to report incidences of fly-tipping to the local authority, even when fly-tipping occurs on private land; the local authority should be informed so that the statistics reflect the scale of the issue more accurately.

On Wednesday 25 March 14 people enjoyed the Association’s Community Challenge (included One Foot in the Grave & Disney) and short AGM, celebrating Fairfield, Wildmoor & Stoneybridge.

Once again, the numbers attending this annual event was disappointing and can be very deflating for the volunteers that help make our community a brilliant place to live.  

A committee was formed for the year ahead, if you would like to be part of this steering group – meet 3 or 4 times a year – email chair@fvca.org.uk.

PLEASE keep YOUR community alive, we need YOU.
