Wychavon is located in the West Midlands region. The district covers 664km2 of the south and eastern part of the county of Worcestershire and is the largest of the six Worcestershire districts.
With a population of 135,000, the area is made up of the three towns of Droitwich Spa, Evesham and Pershore, and nearly 100 villages and hamlets.
We're an entrepreneurial council that has gained recognition for major projects like building Pershore hospital and a Waitrose store, regenerating and reopening the Droitwich Canals and supporting events like the British Asparagus Festival and Pershore Plum Festival.
We Are Wychavon Plan
Our We Are Wychavon Plan is our commitment to you about how we will improve the district over the next four years to make it an even better place to live work and visit. It focuses on three key priorities - People, Place and Environment.
Our history
Wychavon District Council came into being as a shadow authority in 1973 and took over responsibility for the district in 1974.
It was formed following the coming together of five Councils:
- Evesham Borough Council
- Evesham Rural District Council
- Droitwich Borough Council
- Droitwich Rural District Council
