Bins at Willingham Cemetery

The large Euro bin has now been replaced with two smaller bins which will now be collected weekly. These are the bright blue bins located in the corner of the cemetery next to Lane Stile path which runs along the back of the cemetery between Church Street and Fen End. 

Please can users ensure your rubbish is now placed in the blue bins located in the corner of the cemetery as due to continued damage during use the metal bins have been removed from next to the tap in the cemetery. 

Thank you for your co-operation.

The Pink Bin is visiting Willingham for April

Did you know about 500 tonnes of small electrical appliances are put into black bins in our area every year? We’re trying to help bring this down – from now until May Willingham will have its own pink e-waste bin for recycling small electrical items. Things like old hairdryers, phones, laptops, kettles and cables can be brought to Ploughman Hall and put in the pink bin in the car park. Items need to fit through a slot about the size of an A4 piece of paper, and the bins cannot accept vapes, smoke alarms, light bulbs or removable batteries.

The bin is located in the first car parking space of the Ploughman Hall Carpark.

The results are in! Find out who the public said they would like to see perform in Cambridgeshire libraries this spring…

The Library Presents has unveiled its highly anticipated spring programme, created with the input of over 570 local residents. The spring line-up is set to be one of the most exciting in the programme’s six year history and features music, puppetry, dance, circus, theatre, and storytelling events.

Loyal fans will recognise a few firm favourites on the programme with hugely popular events such as The Opera Dudes, Samba Drumming and Fused Glass workshops set to return. However, the local community also expressed an appetite to try something new, so this season welcomes some intriguing new acts, including Conception Mary Shelley: The Making of a Monster, when Mary has a brutal confrontation with her creation; while families are invited to come on a magical journey into the plant world in a theatrical piece, The Greenhouse. Other highlights include music performances spanning a range of genres, a selection of workshops, as well as theatre productions and puppetry performances.

Thanks to public funding from Arts Council England, tickets are affordably priced between £2 and £10, with concessions available.

With events hosted in 19 libraries across the county, guest can look forward to a unique and intimate experience, quite unlike anything offered by a traditional theatre or larger entertainment venue.
