The Parish Council is pleased to have received confirmation that Vistry will commence the building of the long awaited new Community Building on land off Gotherington Lane in August this year. This build is scheduled to last for 11 months meaning the new building should be available from Autumn 2023. The Parish Council has worked hard alongside Vistry and Tewksbury Borough Council for over two years to get this project to the point where we will all soon see a new community building for Bishop’s Cleeve taking shape. We want to thank all parties for working together to get this much needed new facility to the point of commencement. The Parish Council will take ownership of the new Community Building when it is completed, so if you are interested in looking at the plans or want to enquire about hiring the rooms in the Community Building from late next year, please contact the Parish Office on 01242 674440 or email clerk@bishopscleeveparishcouncil.gov.uk

It was with great sadness that the Parish Council learnt, on Thursday evening, of the sudden death of Councillor Peter Richmond. Peter had been a parish councillor for 23 years, having joined the Council in 1997 following a period as a member of Swindon Village Parish Council. During his time as a Bishop’s Cleeve Parish Councillor, Peter was very active and was heavily involved in bringing the Sports Field, Pavilion and Bowls Club to fruition and was then instrumental in the building of the current Parish Office and Garden. Both projects lay testament to his dedication to his community. Peter will be sorely missed by his fellow councillors, the Council staff and the community whose environment he spent many years helping to improve. The Council’s thoughts are with his family ad friends at this very difficult time.
