Filby hits the Headlines again in 2009

Britain in Bloom 2009

Filby Represents the Anglia Region in Finals

Filby is again representing the Anglia region in the Britain in Bloom finals and this was judging day. We now await the results.

We have already negotiated the Anglia in Bloom judging in July and await the announcement of results in September.

This year we have been 'mentored' by one of the Anglia in Bloom judges to try and improve some of the areas that have cost us points in the past.

Also the rules are changing with Britain in Bloom adopting new criteria this year and Anglia in Bloom adopting them next year.

Open Gardens Weekend

Open Gardens Weekend was on Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th of July and we held a Filby Roots Photographic Exhibition to coincide with this event.

Also that weekend the new, permanent, FEPOW memorial was dedicated on the Pound.

F.E.P.O.W. Memorial Bed

Originally created in 2008, and further developed with permanent features in 2009.

The Far Eastern Prisoners of War Memorial Bed is our recognition of the deprivations they suffered.

Filby Community Orchard

Phase One 2008

Alright; so it was only 21 one year old maiden trees but it was a start. We still planted 50% more trees than we initially planned.

Phase Two 2009

30 trees have been bought and planted. The orchard area has greatly expanded and now features the 'wild life' garden.

Filby: Local Roots

New for 2008 and 2009

Bringing together Filby's past and present.

This project has developed and expanded with further exhibitions planned for 2009.

We would welcome the opportunity to see any photographs. pictures, recordings or documents relating to Filby you may have access to.
