📢 We’ve Achieved Silver! 🎉

We are delighted to announce that Newton Abbot Town Council has been awarded the Silver Award by the National Association of Local Councils (NALC).

In a congratulatory letter from NALC Chair, Iain Hamilton, the Council was praised for demonstrating excellence in governance, community engagement, and continuous improvement. The award recognises councils that go beyond their legal obligations to actively lead and support their communities while continually seeking opportunities to develop and improve.

This achievement reflects the hard work, dedication, and commitment of our councillors and staff, and our ongoing focus on delivering the very best for the residents of Newton Abbot.

Yesterday, the Mayor of Newton Abbot, Councillor Louise Cooke, had the pleasure of opening the Community Store, operated by THAT Foodbank. on Queensway in Buckland.
FareShare is an organisation that collects food that is close to is use-by date from supermarkets. This food is then sold on to food banks and community stores at a much reduced rate. Rob, a trustee, said that they have received about 150kg of food from FareShare. Anyone can then go into the shop and buy food, selected by themselves, for £5. The only stipulation is that at least one item from each of five categories is selected.

"As of January 2026, 4.5 million children (one in three) live in relative poverty nationwide," the Mayor says. "Of these, 1.9 million live in 'deep material poverty, according to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. Charities such as THAT Foodbank and Community Store on Queensway will be a valuable asset to many families struggling in Newton Abbot. It was a privilege to meet the volunteers and speak to some who had come to shop. I wish THAT Foodbank all the best for the future."
