🌿 Spring Spruce-Up at the Village Hall– Can You Help? 🌿
With summer just around the corner, it’s time to give our Village Hall grounds a little love – and we’d really appreciate your help! We’re looking for a few friendly volunteers to join us for a couple of simple but important outdoor jobs:
A quick fix-up for the bench - Treating the sheds to some much-needed wood care
All materials will be provided – we just need your time and energy!
📅 Saturday 24th May - 🕙 From 10am -📍 Drimpton Village Hall Grounds
Even if you can only spare an hour, it’ll make a huge difference. The village hall runs on volunteer power, and this is a great chance to chip in, get outdoors, and enjoy a cuppa with your neighbours, you may need to bring a flask. Please let us know if you can come by emailing: 📧 villagehalldrimpton@gmail.com
Many hands make light work – and every pair helps! 💪💚

It is time to start the weekly cutting of the grass in the Village Hall playground. We rely on a team of volunteers, the bigger the team, the less one has to do it. Last year we had 7 people and this meant cutting it only 3 times each for the season. It takes about an hour, there is a mower and training provided!
