Many local CaldmoreAccord residents may be aware that it has merged with GreenSquare to become GreenSquareAccord.

We welcomed Robin Bailey, the Chairman of the GreenSquareAccord Board, at the Garden yesterday to show the work of Caldmore Housing and then CaldmoreAccord in helping to create Caldmore Community Garden and the House.

CaldmoreAccord have been instrumental in setting up our Community Garden and developing many core areas and projects.

We wanted to share the good work with the new Chairman and the Chief Executive, Ruth Cooke, who has promised to visit in the future, so that we can re-establish our partnership working with a key local social housing provider.

Without the funding from CaldmoreAccord we would not have been able to start the refurbishment of the Caldmore Community House. The former Chairman of CaldmoreAccord, Mike Hew and Director Margot Lambert were key partners in the development of Caldmore Village Festival Group which oversees the Garden and the House.
