Join us this Saturday for a magical Christmas Fayre!

The festive season is almost here, and what better way to kick it off than by joining us at the Christmas Fayre at Walford Village Hall on Saturday, 6th December 2025, from 11am–2pm! It’s the perfect way to step into the holiday spirit with family and friends.

As you enter our beautifully decorated village hall, you’ll be surrounded by festive music, and plenty of Christmas cheer. Explore a wonderful selection of craft stalls, brimming with handmade gifts, decorations, and seasonal treats — ideal for finding something truly special for everyone on your list while supporting local makers.

Feeling lucky? Don’t miss our raffle, packed with fantastic prizes just waiting to be won! And when it’s time to refuel, tuck into a hot turkey roll with all the trimmings — the ultimate festive comfort food. Pair it with a steaming mug of hot chocolate, a fresh cup of tea or coffee, or a refreshing cold drink to keep you going.

✨ Don’t miss this magical moment! ✨
At midday, Santa himself will make a grand entrance on his husky-drawn sleigh — a truly spectacular sight you won’t want to miss! After his arrival, little ones can visit him in the grotto between 12pm and 2pm, where they’ll receive a special Christmas treat and a sprinkle of festive magic.

So come along, soak up the atmosphere, and make cherished memories with your loved ones. Whether you’re shopping for gifts, enjoying the delicious food, or simply embracing the festive fun, the Walford Christmas Fayre is the place to be this holiday season.

We can’t wait to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with you! 🎅✨

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!

Date: Friday 28th November 2025
Time: 7:00pm
