About us

The Sturry and Broad Oak Residents Association (SABORA) is an association of like-minded residents whose aims are to safeguard and promote the wellbeing of residents, the character of our villages and our local environment.

Formed in 2022, it is open to all residents of the Sturry and Broad Oak parishes. Please register your interest on the Join us page.

We will research significant local issues and developments, collate opinions and comments, and communicate these to residents and organisations. As an association we will make our research, actions and recommendations available to all interested parties.

We will work with the community to promote better facilities for all residents, including social and cultural initiatives, and to encourage a long-term view of local needs.

We will endeavour to promote special interest groups, such as gardening, walking, talks etc.

To achieve our aim we will engage with relevant government bodies and other organisations, to improve the qualities and facilities of the local area, retaining its local character, and ensure that these are preserved for future generations. 

The association will seek to be represented on any appropriate body, where necessary, in order to further these aims. It is not the intention of the group to replace or be a substitute for any existing organisation.

We welcome positive participation from local residents, and actively encourage comments and ideas that will improve the quality of life for residents of the Sturry and Broad Oak area.
