A community workshop has received £1,260 after applying for funding through housing provider Connexus’ community development fund. Walters Workshop, set up and run by volunteers, repairs everything from broken vacuum cleaners to garden furniture for the benefit of the local community.

Connexus has started work on a development of 14 affordable homes in Much Wenlock, giving people a much-needed opportunity to find a property within their local community.

Connexus has worked with Herefordshire Council and construction partner G P Thomas to complete work on 8 bungalows and 1 x 3-bed property in the heart of Hereford. The new bungalows are specifically designed to cater for the accessibility needs of incoming tenants and replace the prefab bungalows along Pine Grove and Chestnut Drive.

We’re delighted to announce the winners and runners-up of this year’s customer gardening competition.

Rural housing association Connexus celebrates its fifth anniversary.
