Sadly, I have to report that Tim Gorringe has resigned as Chairman of the Village Hall Committee after many years. This is because he and Gill are hoping to move soon, probably out of area. I do not know how long Tim has been chairman, but one of his major achievements was the installation of photo-voltaic panels on the roof. These have now paid for themselves and contribute a regular sum to the hall for units of electricity generated and fed into the national grid. These payments have contributed substantially to the hall’s finances for the last 12 years out of the 25yrs we are expecting to profit from them. So thank you Tim for your hard work for the Hall. Hopefully one day Covid will no longer be such a threat and we can reinstitute the Harvest Suppers, and look forward to you and Gill coming as customers not organisers.
This means that there are now vacancies for new people on the committee. We do not meet very often, so if you feel you have a few hours to spare every two months or so, and are interested in keeping this facility going for the village, please let me know.
I shall be taking over as Bookings Clerk from the beginning of February, so please contact me and leave a message on the answer machine if I am out, and I will get back to you as quickly as I can. Alternatively, you can send a message via the web site Contact page.
