Please come along to hear about developments during this last year and also to help us in planning for the future. The Village Hall is such an excellent resource for the community and we would like to thank you for all your support this year in attending our events. We would really appreciate your input and hope to see you there.
The Hall is administered by a Committee of Volunteers with elected Officers such as Chair, Treasurer, Secretary etc. plus Volunteers to come up with ideas and drive!
Chacombe gathered to light a commemorative beacon on Berry Close. As the evening drew in at 9.30pm it became clear that it was a thought- provoking event. Both a moment for celebration and contemplation of current world events. A few words were said by Andrew Taylor, Chair of the PCC and by Rev. Robert Jones. As many Villagers gathered the beacon was lit by Mick Steel, long-time resident and someone who remembers VE Day as a young member of the Home Guard.
It was good to see so many turn out on a chilly, but dry evening. Especially heartening to see a few younger Villagers showing their respect for our history.
Many thanks to Robert, Scott and Andy, the CS&SC crew who put the effort into the organisation of the beacon and to all who attended.
Firstly, thank you to Georgia Connor for helping us to creep into the 21st century by setting up a Facebook page for the hall. Please give our page a like on facebook – Chacombe Village Hall. Feel free to leave any comments and suggestions as to improvements and events in the village hall. We want the hall to be used by everybody. We’ve also been doing a lot of work sorting out some repairs including the wall in the car park. The car park is now much tidier and safer. We are in the process of organising two containers to go on the village hall site. This will help both the hall and the Sports and Social Club with storage.
