Hurst Green

Would you believe it’s been one year since the Community Shop and Cafe opened. This is a great achievement for the village and, from the feedback received by the board it has clearly been a huge valuable asset for the Hurst Green village community.

The occasion is to be celebrated by the board on Saturday 24th May Between 12 noon and 3pm on the lawn at the front of the shop with some activities for the children, table tennis and food tasting for all to enjoy. AND the grand draw for the giant Toblerone raffle (have you brought your tickets yet?)

Please feel free to drop by to mark this occasion with them.
