The Saturday event will take place outside at The Bold Privateer pub on Wrose Road, featuring live music from 11:30am until 4:30pm. The Wrose Bull plays host on Friday 25 July, with live music from 8pm.

The event is being funded by Wrose Parish Council, which is chaired by local district councillor, Councillor Alex Ross-Shaw, “We’re really pleased to be delivering another summer event in Wrose in the new form of Wrose Live. There’s always loads going on in Wrose and what better way to celebrate the summer during our year as UK City of Culture than with a weekend of live music!”
Tammy Marie, who runs The Bold Privateer, said, “The Bold Privateer has always prided itself on being at the heart of the community in Wrose and we can’t wait to give people a warm welcome to our pub this weekend.”
Katie, Manager at The Wrose Bull, said, “We’re so pleased to be part of Wrose Live this year. We have live music on the last Friday of every month so it’s great we can be a partner of Wrose Live and let people know there’s so much great stuff happening in our community.”

A Blooming Welcome Along Wrose Road

/in /by

Wrose Parish Council is pleased to announce that the barrier baskets and planters along Wrose Road and Highfield have now been freshly planted with a calming, elegant selection of summer plants – ready for everyone to enjoy over the coming months.

This year’s scheme for the barrier baskets features cool blues and soft greens, with some pops of baby pink, a gentle nod to one of the key colours celebrating Bradford’s City of Culture 2025.

But it’s not just about appearances. We’ve taken steps to make our planting more sustainable and future-friendly by adding a mix of perennials. These hardy, returning plants reduce waste and support local wildlife, particularly our bees and pollinators.

The displays are designed to brighten everyday journeys and offer a moment of calm in our busy lives. We hope they bring quiet joy to your walks when out and about in Wrose.

💬 Spot a favourite planter? Let us know or share a photo! And keep your eyes peeled for those baby pink blooms – a small celebration of culture, creativity, and community in Wrose.

Wrose Parish Council Boosts Local Biodiversity on Low Ash Road

/in /by

We’re excited to share that Wrose Parish Council recently commissioned a small environmental improvement project on a piece of council-owned land along Low Ash Road — and nature is already responding!

What’s is the work about?

The focus was  on enhancing biodiversity by creating a welcoming space for wildlife while also ensuring the area looked cared for. The works include:

  • Coppicing overgrown trees to allow light in and encourage new growth
  • Building a traditional dead hedge – a fantastic habitat for birds, insects, and small mammals
  • Mowing green pathways through the long grass to create access and visual interest
  • Leaving wide areas of wildflowers untouched, supporting our pollinators and adding natural beauty

🌸 This balance between careful management and wild growth supports a rich mix of species — and already we’ve had our first exciting visitor: a hawk moth has been spotted enjoying the new space! A sure sign that these efforts are making a difference.

👣 Whether you’re out walking, taking the kids for an explore, or just enjoying a moment of calm, we hope this revitalized space offers you something special to view.

💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts or see your photos if you spot any wildlife while passing by. Let’s celebrate Wrose’s growing green spaces, together.

Wrose Parish Council Joins the Great British Spring Clean! 🌿

/in /by

On Saturday 29 March, Wrose Parish Council joined forces with amazing local volunteers to take part in the Great British Spring Clean. The team tackled litter and fly-tipping at Wrose Quarry Wetland, a beautiful local spot in need of care as it had suffered from irresponsible littering and fly tipping..

Armed with grabbers, bags, and plenty of determination, the group collected around 17 bags of rubbish, along with larger fly tipped  items such as an old mattress and lengths of plastic.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who took part! Your efforts make a real difference—helping to protect our local environment and keep Wrose looking its best for everyone to enjoy..
