Community Thursdays
If you are part of a community group, charity, or voluntary organisation, and would like to promote what you do, get in touch with us by emailing communities@bedford.gov.uk for a social media post template.
Feature on Bedford Borough Council's Facebook page to reach the 20k+ residents that follow us.
We would like to give voluntary organisations and community groups the opportunity to reach our followers with information that will support the community, and support us in best practice information sharing.
Please note, we are not able to share any information of services or events that are for profit, and for this reason will not be promoting any local businesses.
We have a limit of five community posts that will be shared each Thursday, please submit your request to be added to the list.
Community update and volunteering e-bulletins
The Communities team share e-bulletins with volunteers and VCSEs each month to promote community events, council initiatives, and support and funding available. If you would like us to share information with other services and organisations in the Borough, email communities@bedford.gov.uk.
Community events in open spaces
If you're thinking of holding an outside event like party in the park or a community picnic, please make sure you read our planning an event advice.
Market stalls
If you are thinking of using one or more market stalls for a town centre promotion or event for your group or organisation, you can contact the Markets Manager at markets@bedford.gov.uk for more information.
