Improving our community

We're here to support all Great Langborough residents in living well and enjoying the many possibilities our community has to offer. The GLRA provides a unique network of insight, access, and opportunities to enhance your local experience.

Great Langborough Residents Association helps to ensure our roads and surroundings remain an interesting and pleasant place to live, work and visit. Over the 30 years of its existence the GLRA has involved itself in many aspects of the life of the town, such as: lending our voice on housing and road schemes, Wokingham’s Town Centre Regeneration and the plans for Carnival Pool. To this end we work with other local interest groups.

Where necessary we have challenged, and sometimes supported, councils in their local duties, most particularly in the planning process. We have participated in the Local Development Plan and we regularly comment on local planning applications, most often those in conservation areas in and around the Great Langborough area.

The GLRA also represents residents on other organisations, arranges evening talks and looks to make our local area an increasingly pleasant environment in which to live, work and visit.

Great Langborough Resident’s Association Closure

Dear Friends and Residents,

This past year, your committee worked hard to revitalise the GLRA, enhancing its usefulness for our community. Our last AGM and recent Open Meeting were both well supported.

Regrettably though, we have been unable to attract volunteers to help with the ongoing administration of the GLRA.

For over 30 years the GLRA has contributed significantly to housing, road schemes, and local projects like the Town Regeneration. It has served as a vital communication link between residents and organisations like the Town and Borough Councils making sure that residents understood what was happening and their voice was heard.

However, it is with considerable regret that the committee have decided to wind up the Activities of the GLRA with immediate effect.

All remaining funds will be donated to local charities.

Farewell from your Committee.
