Bedford Borough News w/c 24/7/23

Addison Howard Park, Bedford Park, Harrold-Odell Country Park and Priory Country Park, have all been included in the winners list. Harrold-Odell Country Park did exceptionally well, scoring overall in the highest category this year, which reflects the hard work put into the management of the park from the Country Park Team and Friends of Harrold-Odell Country Park.

The judges gave a special mention about the amazing park volunteers, and the work they undertake to make the local parks as beautiful as they are.

Along with all the fantastic health and well-being benefits of getting your wellies on and going outdoors, the activities help to secure that special bond between child and adult.

Currently, there are over 300,000 customers across the UK who have received renewal packs but have yet to confirm their circumstances for the current tax year in order to continue receiving payments. Any alterations to living arrangements, childcare, working hours, or income changes could impact the amount of tax credits received.

Children are invited to earn rewards for reading through the summer. There is also a fun activity pack to complete which includes scratch and sniff stickers!
