We are aware that there have been some comments circulating suggesting that West Winch Village Hall is closing permanently.
We would like to make it absolutely clear that this is not the case.
West Winch Village Hall is not closing. The Parish Council is committed to the future of the Village Hall and to ensuring that it remains an important facility for the community for many years to come.
The Hall is currently undergoing a programme of much-needed refurbishment and improvement works. These works are necessary to address the condition of the building, improve its facilities and ensure that the Hall is safe, suitable and fit for continued use by local residents, community groups, clubs and organisations.
As with any significant building project, there is inevitably some disruption and we can only apologise for the disruption at this time, while the works are carried out. The temporary closure is part of the process of investing in the Hall and securing its future, not an indication that the Hall is being closed permanently.
The Parish Council understands how important the Village Hall is to West Winch. It has been at the heart of village life for generations, providing a place for meetings, celebrations, activities, clubs and community events.
We are unable to guarantee the reopening date at this time and will update all when this is clearer.
Thank You for your patience and understanding at this time.
The new Bus Shelter at the Winch former public house on the A10, has just been installed, thanks to £3,740.00 BSIP funding (80% of the cost) from Norfolk County Council, with the remainder paid by West Winch Parish Council.
County Councillor Alexandra Kemp, pictured with residents said " The new Bus Shelter is literally sheltering us from the wind, on this blustery March day, but will be even more important as a buffer from the rain".
The new Bus Shelter was requested by residents to support Active and Sustainable Transport into Lynn.
