Village Hall Events

The Village Hall Committee AGM will take place on Tuesday, 29 April at 8.00pm and this is an opportunity for new ideas to influence the way that the Village Hall is run and the sort of event that is available. If you would like to join the committee please let me know in advance of the meeting. However, even if you do not want to stand for a committee post, please come along and enjoy a glass of wine, get to know more about our finances, our challenges and let us have your thoughts on how you would like to see the Village Hall develop.
