Village Hall Committee

Have you noticed anything different about the village hall recently?  Anyone who was at the Jubilee Tea Party will have found it a great deal easier to hold a conversation over tea.  The reason is that acoustic panels have been installed in the ceiling of the hall.  They are barely noticeable, but have made a huge difference.  The reverberation time, that is the length of time that sound echoes in the hall, has been halved.  As well as controlling background noise when there is a large group of people in the hall, it also means the acoustics are far better for making music.  This is just one of the recent improvements that have been carried out with funds that have been raised by our activities.  Another has been to carpet the new community room at the rear. The Hall Committee is grateful for the grants for the acoustic panels from the Townlands Trust and South Norfolk Council. 

After the AGM we are entering  a new year for the Hall Committee with additional people joining; Steve Neaves, Caroline Dear, John Morrish and Helen Walker.  Sadly, Cindy Asprey has left us due to ill health and our previous secretary Brenda Hider has retired. We are  very grateful to both Cindy and Brenda for their  tremendous support over the years.

              The Village Hall is now on Facebook.
