Friendly Farmer

The Friendly Farmer project is all about establishing opportunities of mutual benefit for linking villages with their surrounding farms.

There are two elements to the project.

The first is to inform farmers of a range of activities that they can share with their communities. This will be achieved by using NFU, CLA, YFC and the Rural Hub who will help the project assemble a database from which farmer groups are created and taken to one of three ‘demonstration’ farms.

Get Growing!

Get Growing! brings together people in the rural parishes of Warwick District and Rugby Borough by providing support and resources for community food growing initiatives in their location. It builds a sense of community by supporting people to grow their own fruit and vegetables

Gardens Go Wild!

"Gardens go Wild" project is run by Warwickshire Wildlife Trust to encourage more more people to consider wildlife in their gardens and allotments, rewarding people who have wildlife-friendly gardens and allotments by encouraging individuals to participate in the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust Wildlife Gardening award scheme.

    Encouraging visitors to your village can bring real benefits. It can make all the difference to small local businesses, give your community fundraising a boost, help you to organise new village events or improve facilities like footpaths; even create local employment. Most importantly it can bring people together.

    Hands On Hands Off

     Sez- U Community Theatre would like to create a new play working closely with two or three villages. We would like to document, interview and archive a cross section of local people and then use their views and stories to weave into a new play that can tour, fetes,galas and village halls. Have a look at our camouflage web site to see how we created a new play and documented this hidden history as an example of our work. artofdeception.org If any villages are interested in this type of project please get in touch and support this project idea.

    Community Orchards

    We are a group including Action 21 from Leamington and the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust who are looking to set up a number of community orchards in Central Warwickshire. Community orchards are a great way to provide community space in a parish and can be used for all sorts of things apart from just fruit production. Picnics and BBQs spring to mind! We are looking to help village groups set up orchards.

    Equipment for Community Venues

    Live & Local has already been approached by some community venue committees in Warwick and Rugby Districts with regard to helping with a bid for performance related equipment for their hall.

    There may well be benefits to a combined bid from several organisations across the District, especially where the individual bids are for less than £5,000. In particular it may also enable an equipment pool for the sharing of some items.
