Do you have a few hours to spare to help look after our village hall. We need more volunteers on the management committee.

We also need someone to act as caretaker for the hall, a job that need only take a couple of hours a week.

If you would like to help please contact us or come along to one of our monthly meetings at 7.30pm of the 3rd Monday of each month in the meeting room [portakabin].

Bawdeswell Village Hall Committee has reviewed its hire fees from January 2012 and have made no change to the basic charges. However, there are minor changes to some of the fees for more than 2 hours so that the additional hourly charges are more structured. You can view hire fees by clicking here.

A planning applicationto build a new hall has now been approved. As previously stated, there is a long way to go before any physical work takes place.

For details of the Planning Application see http://planning.breckland.gov.uk/portal/pls/portal/BRECKWEB.RPT_APPLICATION_DETAILS.SHOW?p_arg_names=reference&p_arg_values=3PL/2011/0756/F

The details and plans can be viewed on the above Breckland Web Site. Any comments from members of the public are displayed here as well.

With the pending demise of the ‘eastinvolve’ project and web sites, Bawdeswell Village Hall is now hosted on a ‘norfolkparishes’ site. The transfer may make some references invalid and some links may not work. Also, some documents may not be available.

I shall be working through thE site and correcting/amending the content as required. It is also an opportunity to generally update the site.

In the meantime, if you have any queries or notice any errors please contact us by email.

Due to higher utility bills and the increased cost of maintenance we have had to raise our hire fees.  The basic hire charge was last increased in January 2007. Residents of Bawdeswell continue to receive a discount. Our hire fees are all inclusive so there is no additional charge for heating.

Do you have a couple of  hours spare time each week. If so you could help the village by becoming the caretaker at the hall. Please contact us for further information.
