Join in with The Great Grantham Spring Clean Published: 14:00, 09 April 2021
We are proud to today (Friday) launch The Great Grantham Spring Clean â and we want YOU to get involved.
The anti-litter campaign will recognise the wonderful waste warriors in Grantham and the surrounding villages who have a real sense of pride in their neighbourhoods and spend their free time picking up after selfish litterbugs.
It also aims to get schools, groups and businesses involved â we hope readers will get behind The Great Grantham Spring Clean and by this summer have a renewed sense of pride in our town and villages.
Themed benches unveiled alongside Grantham Canal Published: 10:16, 31 January 2021
Four benches have been installed alongside Grantham Canal as part of a five-year project by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
The benches have been unveiled at Denton Reservoir, Lock 12 near Muston, Redmile and Cropwell Bishop, as part of the partnership project, between the Canal and River Trust and Grantham Canal Society, which has seen locks 14 and 15 restored to working use.
Each bench has been designed with a different canal based theme, including canal wildlife, heritage and engineering, water supply and canal restoration, and artwork related to Grantham Canal.

There is a walk to accompany each bench location and leaflets will include family activities based on each of the themes. The leaflets will be ready in early spring and will be downloadable from the Grantham Canal Society website as well as available to pick up when events are able to resume.
