In the heart of beautiful Northamptonshire
The deadline for submissions for the next printed newsletter is Saturday 11 October.
Anyone can contribute, so if you have any news or information about events happening in, or of interest to the village, please email the details to: holcotvillagenewsletter@hotmail.com
(We have to allow time for design and printing, so please get those emails in super quick!)
After all our hard work, there will be a very short service of thanksgiving – followed by food and drink.
Please come along if you would like to help out with some small jobs on the church building.
If you have a wire brush, please bring it along with you.
Many thanks
Churchwardens… James and Lesley

Applications can now be made for the Welcoming Spaces Grant Scheme run by West Northamptonshire Council. Community organisations can now apply for vital funds to create safe, non-judgemental, warm, and welcoming spaces for local people.
Using funds from the Household Support Fund for West Northamptonshire, the Council is seeking to support the creation or development of Welcoming Spaces across the area. Environments where residents can come together, enjoy refreshments and access wider support services.
Grants of £500 to £1,500 are available to community and voluntary organisations, registered charities, and other qualifying bodies, with funding intended to provide support until the end of March 2026.
The closing date for all applications is 10.00am on Monday 6 October 2025.
