How to Enter

A Guide for the Village with Ambition

Naturally, many villages will want to set their sights beyond their own county competition - they’ll be aiming to win the chance to compete in the 2009 English Calor Village of the Year^® competition. If this sounds like your village, this page tells you what is involved at the next level.
