Winners announced in Calor Bedfordshire Village Of The Year competition.


Sharnbrook has been named the 2008 winner of the annual Calor Bedfordshire Village Of The Year competition.

Parish councillor June Barnes, who led the entry, said: "We are a caring village and I think that really came across in the competition.

"We do a lot of things to include people, such as our 'Welcome to Sharnbrook' scheme which lets people who move here know about what events are going on, our good neighbours scheme and the lunch club. It is about people supporting each other and giving them the opportunity to become part of our community."

Judges made two-hour visits in May, and the village will now go forward to the national event.

Bromham took the special environment award, and the special achievement prize went to Wyboston, Chawston and Colesden.

What do you think about Government proposals to double the size of Yarl's Wood?
After what we've been through in Bedfordshire with the riot and fire five years ago, I'd rather the facilities were built somewhere else.
Fair enough, we have got to house failed asylum seekers somewhere.
It's a recipe for disaster housing foreign criminals with immigrants who have outstayed their visas and others going through the fast-track immigration process.
