Regular events and classes
Warm Space Wednesdays, 9.30am – 1pm, Village Hall Annex
St Mary Magdalene Church’s ‘Warm Space’ initiative and Wednesday social has been a welcome and well supported diary date for many villagers.
The free weekly get-together for refreshments, cake and lunch routinely draws 30-40 people. As well as enjoying the company of friends, old and new, the group has been visited by various organisations providing information such as the Fire Service and Age UK. Well-supported trips to Launde Abbey and The Shires Shopping Village have also taken place.
It’s hoped that this social continues to thrive and be enjoyed by our older villagers. If you haven’t tried it yet, do come along.
