Fulford Best Kept Village

The 2020 BKV Competition was postponed due to the Coronavirus crisis.

This year, BKV 2021:

Through photographs, video footage, local articles, and good news stories this is an opportunity to shout about the great things that go on within your community. A chance to celebrate your community efforts and community spirit.

And the winner of 

“THE SPIRIT OF BEST KEPT VILLAGE” COMPETITION 

was a poem by Sally Jones, Fulford

The results and judges' feedback is released and now on the

BKV Competition page.

The judges visit in May and June and visit again in July if the village gets through to the area final. 

The 2019 results were announced on Monday 5th August.

Fulford is a small to medium working village in the heart of Staffordshire, located to the east of Stoke-on-Trent.  With an active village and farming community, we are proud to take part in the Best Kept Village competition and organise regular events, including an annual Fulfest music festival, and monthly walks from autumn through to spring (including a rhododendron walk and an infamous dawn chorus walk).

The aim of the site is to provide information about our village and the events that are taking place this year. For the last eight years we used the Best Kept Village competition to bring together  groups of residents who have a sense of pride in their village and the determination and enthusiasm to pursue a range of activities. The result was the emergence of the 'Fulford Village Group', an informal group (open to all) that has worked on a wide range of initiatives:

• Best Kept Village Competition.
• Save the Public House.
• Social activities for the Village.
• Fulfest (an annual local music festival).
• Improving communication with and supporting all community organisations.  
• Footpath walks and improvements to the footpath network.
• Fulford Community Choir.
• Jubilee Sign.
• Village Well

• War Memorial restoration

Thank you Fulford. We have done it!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has donated.

We smashed our £2,500 target that the village wanted to raise and the renovation started in early 2019.

The Inaugural General Meeting of the Fulford Village Group (FVG) was held at Fulford Village Hall on Tuesday 16th December 2014 at 7.30 pm at which the Constitution of the Society was approved and adopted and the Officers appointed.
