The Digital West Berkshire Magazine - Spring/Summer 2025

Welcome to the new Your West Berkshire magazine

It gives me great pleasure to introduce the Spring/Summer 2025 edition of 'Your West Berkshire'. Our aim is to keep residents informed about the latest news, events and initiatives from West Berkshire Council. In this publication, we highlight the Council's ongoing efforts to enhance community life, deliver essential services and invest in the district's future.

Inside, you'll find updates on key projects such as the Grazeley Solar Farm, our leisure centre refurbishments and highways improvements. We tell you how the Council is spending its budget for 2025/26, including our investment in schools, our infrastructure and environmental sustainability. We celebrate the achievements of local heroes through the Community Champion Awards and discover how outreach services are bringing support directly to residents.

From fostering opportunities and education projects to waste management strategies and active travel initiatives, this edition showcases the Council's commitment to creating a greener, healthier and more connected community. Whether you're interested in leisure activities, volunteering, or staying informed about local developments, "Your West Berkshire" has something for everyone.

We hope you enjoy reading this edition and invite you to share your feedback or explore more through our e-newsletters and social media channels. Together, let's continue building a vibrant and thriving West Berkshire!
