VILLAGE HALL NEWS

Wow another month and another round of
changes. Fortunately for us around here not much
has changed but my guess is there will be some
changes in the following days and they may have
happened by the time you read this and so please
check out the parish website or ring me on
07818078191 for any up to date information on the things we’re hoping to do.
Any and all events at the village hall are subject to change and will comply with
the current regulations set out by local and national government.
Life at the village hall is getting busier, which is good to see at long last. We are
pleased to be able to welcome one or two precious hirers back and at least one
new hirer and we wish them well with their ventures.
As trustees we have also not only been looking at keeping
the hall available but also at what we can do to provide a
little interlude in these strange times. The village hall café is
up and running on Tuesdays and Saturdays although here
please check website or call me for up to date details as
we may have to move from Tuesday to another day as
one of our hirers returns on Tuesday mornings.

Watch this space but thank you to all those who have
turned up to support us in raising some funds for the hall
and we hope you have found it beneficial to meet friends
in a safe place. All tables and chairs are sanitised and safe
social distancing is maintained with table service provided.
