Harworth (the owners of the former power station site) have a Communities Fund to donate to and support local causes that are important to our community. If you would like to bid for funding for an organisation in the local community please contact Harworth directly.

Your application forms will need to be completed by a community group, school, charity, community amateur sports club or not-for-profit organisation which operates within a 4 mile radius of the Benthall Grange development.

Buildwas have previously received grants from the fund to upgrade our defibrillator at the Village Hall and costs towards making and repairing scenery for the Buildwas Players panto.

The window to apply for the fund is open until 31st August.

⚠️ Waste and recycling collections on Thursday and Friday.

Due to the hot weather, recycling and waste collections will start at 6am, rather than 7am.
