Anglia Projects

ITV Anglia transmits to Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire.

Over the past five years of the People’s Millions competition we have seen some great projects in the region. Previous winners include community gardens, a bandstand, a big green tractor, a mobile sensory playroom and many more!

Barking Tye Lakes

The project is to develop an accessible coarse fishing complex at two newly excavated lakes, to enable greater participation in angling by anglers with disabilities and young people.

The Barn Regeneration Project

The project will convert an existing storage space into a meeting room and kitchen and increase the accessibility of the building so enabling the barn, which is used as a village hall, to cater more effectively for existing users and enable the provision of additional activities.

Village Hall Extension

The project will extend the existing village hall, which serves a growing community of 3,500, to provide an additional meeting room, an accessible toilet, additional storage space and toilet provision and a kitchenette. It will also improve access to the existing meeting room.

Wildlife Challenge

The project will, through the purchase of a minibus and education trailer and through additional staff hours, enable a greater range and number of disadvantaged groups and individuals to access existing wildlife and environmental sites. It will also create two new environmental landscapes at the Randalls Farm wildlife site.

Trust Links Growing Together

The project is to provide a resource centre within the existing Growing Together community garden and horticultural facility. The centre will offer a range of training, work experience and counselling services to people with mental health issues and/or learning disabilities. It will also house a cafe open to the general public and let rooms for meetings etc to external organisations.
