Spaldwick Common Ground, a community charity in Cambridgeshire, was featured as Charity of the Month on **Ouse Valley Radio’s “Over to You”*. Trustee Johan Dreyer spoke with Norman Knapper about transforming Spaldwick’s historic village church into a flexible community hub and how residents can get involved in the project.

We’re honoured to have received a letter of support from Ben Obese-Jecty MP, praising our plans to transform the village church into an inclusive, community-first space. His encouragement reflects the growing support behind Spaldwick Common Ground and our mission to revitalise village life for everyone.

Spaldwick Common Ground hosted a brilliant community board games evening. This was more than just a games night. It was a glimpse of what’s possible when we open up historic village spaces for modern, inclusive community use.

Ben expresses his support, highlighting that "this looks to be a fantastic initiative that will not only see greater usage of the church building, but as the first of this type of lease from the church, could potentially serve as a blueprint for many other churches".
