Village Hall Events

We are looking for hosts to provide Starter, Main and Pudding courses ranging from 4 to 10 guests. Pudding hosts should ideally be able to sit 8 guests plus the hosts, but some wine will be provided by the village hall for pudding hosts to allow for the larger number of guests.

For those unable to host a course, tickets are available at £17.50 per head (a bargain for food and wine all night!)

For those of you unsure of the format, revellers will meet at the village hall at 7.00 p.m. for aperitifs. We will then ‘progress’ in small groups of 6 to 10 at around 7.30 p.m. to a home within the village for Starters. Thereafter we progress in a different group to another home within the village for a Main Course. Finally we progress in another group to a third house for our desserts, cheese and biscuits and coffee.

This is a great opportunity for newcomers to the Village to meet existing residents and join in to what is always a popular event.

If you would like to participate in the progressive supper please telephone Tracey Hackett on 07813 978917 to confirm whether you would prefer to host a Starter, Main Course or Pudding, or would like tickets at £17.50 per head.
