Village Hall

As villagers, you may be aware that the Good Start Nursery School has had difficulty recruiting pupils over the last few months. Natasha ,the owner, has therefore sadly made the decision to close the school from the end of the Summer Term.

Although the current nursery is only operating from Monday to Wednesday for 32 weeks of the year, it has over the years provided an income which has allowed the Trustees, on behalf of the Church, to maintain and improve the fabric of the building and offer the hall free of charge to villagers. With this in mind, the Trustees are keen to consider other options for rental and would be open to suggestions regarding this. If there are any recommendations which potentially sound suitable please contact either

Tim Harford (revtimharford@gmail.com)

Matt Cuttress (cuttress.family@btopenworld.com ) or

Caroline Alford ( calford16@yahoo.com).

Many thanks, Caroline
