Melbourn Parish Council is inviting organisations, charities or groups in Melbourn to apply for Community Benefit Grants.

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 21 May 2025.

Please click this link to access the grant application form or email parishclerk@melbournparishcouncil.gov.uk for a copy of the form.

The meeting where grant applications will be considered by council will be held on Monday 2 June 2025.

A street works notice for Dolphin Lane has been issued today, 13 March 2025.

TROs are legal documents that regulate how parking, traffic movement and highway obstructions are managed on the public highways and include changes to yellow lines, speed limits and traffic calming. 

Once advertised, anyone can make a representation to Cambridgeshire County Council, who are the highways authority, about the proposals and your feedback will be considered when a decision is reached.  

Melbourn Greenway TRO was published on 3 March 2025 and is open to public response for 21 days, deadline being midnight on 23 March 2025. This TRO highlights updates to the Melbourn Greenway project that were presented at the public meeting on 3 March 2025 – including the introduction of speed humps, raised tables and pedestrian crossings. A recording of the meeting will be available soon – hard copies of the slides presented are available from the Parish office.

Melbourn Parish Council proudly present the Community Awards 2025

This year we are asking for nominations in 3 categories.

Do you know someone who has gone ‘above and beyond’ for the village? Perhaps they are tirelessly helping neighbours, volunteering time for a community group or just being an all-round good egg!

This is your opportunity to recognise their efforts. Categories for entry are:

The future is bright!

Anyone under 18 years of age who has supported the community, worked towards a personal goal or has demonstratable plans for the future of the village.

All-round good egg!

Celebrating that villager who stands out from the crowd for being a true asset to the village and those around them. The neighbour that you couldn’t live without, the resident that looks after the street. Anyone you think deserves to be noticed.

Community Superstars

This could be an individual, group or organisation that has improved the environment, community or social wellbeing within the village.

All you need to do is send your nomination to the Parish Office at The Hub or send to parishclerk@melbournparishcouncil.gov.uk including; the category, the name of the person or group and a few words about why you feel they deserve to be recognised by Monday 28 April 2025.
