Desborough & District Twinning Association

We welcome new members to join us and take part in our social events and visits - message us for more info! DDTA has been twinned with Neuville de Poitou in France since 1986 and is also informally linked with Bievre in Belgium. We visit France once in every three years, and host visits back from our French friends on a similar schedule. There is usually also a visit to/from Belgium once per year. We will be hosting a group of families from Neuville in Desborough next in 2015. Desborough is also the UK representative town on the Charter of European Rural Communities - or the Charter - linking us with all other European nations through a series of regular adult and youth workshops taking place in host towns and villages across Europe. We have also held meetings here in Desborough, most recently from all 26 EU nations in 2011 and 2016. The DDTA organises monthly social events to help fundraise for future visits by our European friends, and we are always looking for new families and local residents to join in. Events range from themed dinners, quiz and race nights to bingos and safari suppers. We also have an informal Annual Boules Competition each year and our AGM in October.
