Village matters.

Our village hall management committee held the AGM at the end of January. A couple of people stepped down and the remaining members were re-elected, Jon and myself included. Jon is chairperson again, I am a member of the fund-raising committee. 

Every Wednesday I meet up with my friend/neighbour Karen and we thrash through a few ideas and more importantly we set the plans into action. 

I prepared a newsletter which will be delivered into every neighbour this weekend.

By the way - any Archer's fans out there (yes I am one) will have heard the "Clean for the Queen" campaign mentioned last night - we are all ready on the case! 

 Liverton Village News

 February – March 2016

We are thrilled to share some of the exciting plans we have in store

for 2016, a very exciting year as we celebrate 80 years of our village hall.

Lots to  come.

Coffee Morning

The monthly coffee mornings commence

on Saturday February 27th at the usual times, 10am—2pm.

Once again we will be serving food throughout the period,

lunches, home baking and the inevitable corned beef pies.

We are offering a healthy option to ease away any excess pounds gained over the holidays.

We are serving hot chocolate too, hope to see you there.

Any unwanted Christmas presents are always welcome

 for future raffles and tombola.

Any baking will be most welcome, ingredients for baking too.

If you have a free hour and fancy helping out just shout up.

Photograph Competition

We are having a photograph competition—details to follow but in the meantime as you are taking photographs around the village bear this in mind.

Guided Walk

Come on a guided walk on Friday 4th March to appreciate some of the beautiful area around the village.

We meet at Liverton Village Hall at 10.00am for a hot drink then walk along Rosecroft Lane

before returning via Rosecroft Wood.

The walk will be led by John Roberts, famous for his local knowledge and familiarity with walks in the area

There’ll be vegetable soup and a bread roll at the village hall on return.

Cost is £5 with proceeds going to village hall funds.

This is a gentle walk with moderate ascents and descents; please wear suitable clothing and footwear.

Dogs under proper control are welcome on the walk but would need to be tethered outside  the Village Hall.

If you are unable to take part in the walk you are still welcome to come for the lunch in the village hall—we will be having a raffle and there will be a home baking table.

Booking is advisable for walk, lunch or both

Friday 18^th March

Chocolate Making Workshop

The workshops we organised last year were very popular—our first workshop this year will be a chocolate making session on March 18th where people will make their own easter egg.

Either you – or someone you know – loves chocolate, that’s no surprise, but what is surprising is that chocolate can actually be a health food.

Our workshop on March 19^th will be an opportunity

for you to make your very own healthy easter egg.

The type of chocolate we will be making is the really rich,

high quality, low sugar chocolate that contains 85% or more cocoa.

Raw chocolate is made from cocoa beans which haven’t been roasted.

Roasting changes the structure of cocoa beans and lowers the overall nutritional value.

We’ll be using a recipe which includes raw cocoa rather than roasted. 

You’ll notice a huge difference between the two.

All ingredients are supplied.

Cost £10.

We will be having a raffle (Easter Egg of course)

And refreshments will be available.

10am—12 noon.

Call 01287 644932/641209/

to book a place.

Saturday 19^th March

Easter Fun Day

We will be holding our Easter fun day on Saturday March 19th.

There will be something for all the family, games competitions, 

tombola and the usual refreshments.

More details to follow.
