Friends and supporters of Walford Village Hall, we need your help.

Our wonderful hall is at the heart of the community, but it can only thrive with the support of local volunteers. Could you spare a little time? You might be handy with a paintbrush, happy to do some weeding around the grounds, help at events, manage road crossings, run stalls, welcome visitors, or lend general DIY skills to keep the building in great shape.

We’re also looking for extra pairs of hands behind the scenes — admin support, managing bookings, or showing people around the hall. Whether you can give an hour now and then or become more regularly involved, every bit of help makes a difference.

If you’d like to support your village hall, please contact our Chair, Tim, at hello@walfordvillagehall.co.uk or 07951 719691.

Annual General Meeting 2025

The Walford Village Hall Committee warmly invites all residents to attend our Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Friday, 28th November 2025, at 7pm in the Village Hall. This yearly event is an important opportunity for everyone in our community to come together, reflect on the past year’s achievements, and look ahead to the future of our much-loved Village Hall.

The AGM is open to everyone, whether you’re a regular hall user, a volunteer, or simply interested in what goes on behind the scenes. It’s your chance to hear updates on recent improvements, upcoming plans, and the ways in which the Village Hall continues to serve as a hub for local life — from social events and classes to community groups and private celebrations.

A key item on this year’s agenda will be the proposed adoption of our new constitution. This updated document aims to strengthen how the committee operates and ensure that the Hall continues to be managed in the best interests of the whole community. Copies of the proposed constitution are available on request for anyone who would like to review it before the meeting.

We’d also love to hear your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for future events or projects. The Village Hall thrives because of the time, energy, and enthusiasm of local people — and your input really does make a difference.

Refreshments will be provided, so come along, meet your neighbours, and help shape the future of Walford Village Hall.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Vinyasa Peak Pose Yoga Workshop

Participants in a Vinyasa yoga workshop at Walford Hall practicing peak poses and stretches

Instead of the usual Friday night out, why not try something different this November? Join us at Walford Hall for a special Vinyasa Peak Pose Yoga Workshop – an evening of movement, mindfulness, and (yes!) cake.

From 6:30pm – 9pm on Friday 7th November, you’ll flow through a longer-than-usual vinyasa yoga practice, designed to help you release the stresses of the week and prepare your body and mind for the weekend. Expect uplifting backbends, soothing forward folds, and deep relaxation, as you gradually build towards two exciting peak poses: full wheel and splits.

Don’t worry if you can’t do these poses yet – that’s not the point. This workshop is about the journey, exploring your body, breath, and movement at your own pace. Whether you’re new to vinyasa or already practice regularly, you’ll be guided safely with options to adapt or rest as needed.

After practice, you’ll enjoy a little theory to deepen your understanding of the postures, plus a well-earned pause with tea and homemade cakes. The perfect way to round off a Friday evening!
