Village Hall News

 

 

By the time you read this, Halloween Pub Night will have been and gone. Judging by last year, it will hopefully have been a great success.

 

Twenty-three of us enjoyed October's Afternoon Tea; there was a lovely friendly and relaxed atmosphere, a great set of quiz questions, plenty of sandwiches and cakes, tea, and coffee, plus a selection of games.

 

DATE CHANGE for next Afternoon Tea, it is now the 26th November - £3.50 for as many sandwiches, as much cake and tea or coffee as you want.

 

November Quiz Night - 23rd November

Please contact Nigel Merriam if you want to come, it does not matter if you are not in a team, that can be arranged on the night. It is important that people book ahead. Costs are £7.50, pay at the door; we have a card machine. There will also be a Heads and Tails game as usual, costing £2. As well as being an enjoyable evening, this raises money to help the village hall costs.

 

Nigel's contact number is 01449 766222 or email nhmerriam@btconnect.com

The Village Hall Committee Needs you!

The Village Hall plays an essential part in maintaining the community of Wickham Skeith and is run by a committee of volunteers. We would love to have more members to help with this important part of village life. We hold a meeting once a month and events throughout the year. No experience necessary, just a willingness to help out when you can!  If you are interested in participating, please contact Jenny Elphick on 07745419061 or jennymelphick@gmail.com

Defibrillator

It is with great pleasure that the Parish Council announce that Wickham Skeith now has a Defibrillator.  You may well have seen the yellow defibrillator cabinet on the wall of the village hall.  Should you need to call for an emergency ambulance for someone who has collapsed with a suspected heart attack, they will tell you the code to enter into the keypad to access the defibrillator. 

 

The Parish Council is currently looking at training providers and, once organised, there will be a list of training sessions published that will be free for people to attend.  There will also be an opening ceremony for our Wickham Skeith Defibrillator - more details to follow.

 

The Parish Council thanks Cllr Freeman and all those involved with fund raising events, enabling the launch of this project.
