NOTICE FROM THE POLICE

Nominate a local heritage asset.

The Police report there has been a spate of rural crimes which took place overnight of 12 Jan 2022 in the North Bucks area (Winslow, Great Horwood, The Claydons etc). The items targeted were caravans, quadbikes tools and chain saws. 

Please be aware and take care to secure your belongings and review your property security.

OFFICIAL OPENING MARCH 2022.

GUPC are delighted to let everyone know that the M U G A (Multi Use Games Area) is ready for use in the grounds behind Grendon Underwood Village Hall.

The fenced area gives an ideal surface to be used for many different sports activities and for everyone of all ages to enjoy. Whether you are a football, netball, hockey or basketball fan, the facility is now open for everyone to use. We just ask that you use it responsibly and respect others using it – and please …

No dogs or camping; take your litter home (bins will be provided) and bear in mind Covid restrictions are in place.

Paid for by a levy on developers of new buildings in the Parish, through the Planning Authority, this means it has not been paid for from Council Tax on local residents.

Installed during some rather wet conditions, there are still some remedial works to be completed to ensure access and pathways are safe and sound. Meanwhile, please try to keep the MUGA surface as clean as possible.

An official opening will take place early in 2022 but it is open for you to use NOW! Enjoy, stay healthy, stay safe – for community.

Grendon Underwood Parish Council response to the MoJ Outline Planning Application for the Mega-Prison

New role aims to help resolve the many issues residents are experiencing due to works for two major rail projects.

Buckinghamshire Council has appointed its first HS2/EWR Marshal, to help residents impacted by the High-Speed 2 and East West Rail project works taking place across the county.

As marshal, Mark Rann will be the council’s eyes and ears on the ground, addressing highways and planning issues caused by HS2 Ltd, the EWR Alliance and their appointed agents, contractors and subcontractors.

Mark took up his post in late July and is quickly getting to know the key issues across Bucks and building relationships with interested parties.
