In this week’s Local Eco Show, Brian and Deborah attend the ground-breaking ceremony in Enborne at West Berkshire’s first ever community solar farm.

They chat to Sam Dibas and Chris Garrett of Enborne Parish Council and the Enborne Parish Field Charity, and also to Jane Grindey of Calleva Community Energy (which provided the technical know-how) to find out how this project can inspire other communities which want to create a solar farm of their own and how the government can better support small, local energy generation schemes. 

This particular scheme was first conceived seven years ago

1pm – 1.30pm Carved from Coal - An audio play by Andy Kempe

October 21 st , 1966, the last day of the autumn Half Term for the children of Pantglas Primary School. They’d be on their way home at lunchtime. Except that, at 9.15 as class registers were being taken, thousands of tons of rock, mud and slurry from the local coal mine collapsed, engulfing all in its path. The school was in its path.
‘Carved From Coal’ is a radio play written by Andy Kempe and performed by him and members of the Greenham Tower Theatre Group. It tells the story of Gethin, played by Andy. Gethin didn’t go to school that day, but he saw the mountain slide and his school disappear. It took a week before all of the 116 children’s bodies were recovered.
 
This was first broadcast earlier this summer
