Welcome to Quedgeley News!
Quedgeley News is a magazine published monthly by Quedgeley News Limited, a wholely owned trading subsidiary of the charity, Quedgeley Community Trust, and delivered free to all the 6,700 homes and many businesses in Quedgeley. Feel free to look around our web site where you will find more information about our trust along with information on Quedgeley and back issues of our publication.
This picture is of the church in Quedgeley, St James that dates back to 1210. Quedgeley was once made up of several farms, but is now home to over 6,100 houses and a population of nearly 12,000 people. It’s no longer a village; in fact it’s big enough to be a town.
Quedgeley Community Trust is 30 years old and is a continuation by a group of people who got together to arrange and celebrate the Queens Silver Wedding Anniversary back in 1972. They had so much fun that the concept of a community continues and it publishes a monthly 44 page magazine, a mixture of local news and adverts to keep this ever growing village of Quedgeley together. Any profit it makes it gives back in grants to deserving local groups.

We are currently short of distributors in a number of roads in Kingsway and despite a number of attempts few people have come forward. As you probably know, everyone who helps QN does so as a volunteer, no one is paid. However, distributing the magazine each month will take no more than 30 to 40 minutes and will help people to get to know their neighbours and build community spirit. The roads we are currently having problems with are:
- Goose Bay Drive
- Lakenheath
- Locking Drive
- Systerton
- Uxbridge Lane
- Wattisham Road
- Fylingdales Gardens
- Mona Avenue
- Shawbury Avenue
We are also trying to find someone who could drop of bags/boxes of QN each month to around 10 to 12 distributors in Kingsway. Again this would only involve an hour or so each month. If anyone can help please click on Contact Us or ring the Editor Sandra Hughes: 01452 549899
