'Civil defence is all of us'

The Team from Marlborough District Council

We have a saying around here; ‘civil defence is all of us’. Our strength is in how we work together before and after an emergency. There’s even some pretty good evidence around the fact that people who are prepared for an emergency are able to cope better when something does happen!

A big part of my job is about building greater strength in our communities, so feel free to contact me at Marlborough District Council, to see how we can work together.

Have a safe week,
Catherine Coates
Emergency Management Officer

Festive Farmers' Market Christmas Market

Ron from Fairhall - Renwick - Woodbourne

SharpAs Tool Tips
I’ll be at today’s Marlborough Farmers' Market from 3–6pm — a great last chance to get your knives sharpened before a busy Christmas Day.
If you have knives, tools, or other items that need sharpening, come along to the special Farmers’ Market today.

Please note: aside from the statutory days, I’ll still be open.
Cheers,
Ron
