Remember the water problem at the beginning of the year? The Parish Council have managed to organise a public meeting with the Head of Central Operations for South East Water. A number of sessions have been held in the local area but not in Hadlow Down. The Parish Council felt it was important that villagers had the opportunity to hear from South East Water as to why there were water shortages earlier in the year and what the company is planning to do to ensure this doesn’t happen again. The Head of Central Operations will give a presentation which will be followed by a Q&A session. Please encourage villagers to attend as this will be villager’s chance to express their views and South East Water have kindly agreed to hold an extra event in Hadlow Down.

Saturday Morning Craft and Cafe in the Village Hall

The Village Hall will soon be buzzing with creativity, conversation and the comforting smell of fresh coffee as we launch a new monthly Pop-Up Craft Session in support of HDCC (Hadlow Down Community Centre).

Held once a month, on Saturdays, these relaxed and friendly mornings are a wonderful opportunity for villagers and visitors alike to come together, learn something new and enjoy a little time with neighbours and friends. Keep an eye on the Village Calendar for upcoming dates.

On Saturday 11th April from 10am to 1pm, the Village Hall will open its doors for a morning of crafting, creativity and community spirit. Whether you’re an experienced maker or simply curious to try something new, everyone is welcome.

This month’s pop-up session features two lovely creative workshops:

  • A free calligraphy class with Jan Trimmer, perfect for learning the elegant art of beautiful lettering.
  • A paper piercing class with Adrienna Landa-Font, where you can discover how to create delicate designs and make your own beautiful handmade cards.

Both sessions are relaxed, welcoming and suitable for beginners, so don’t worry if you’ve never tried these crafts before.

And of course, crafting is even better with good food! The Village Hall kitchen will be open throughout the morning, serving:

  • Hot bacon rolls, tea and coffee for breakfast
  • Delicious homemade soup and a roll for lunch

So whether you’d like to learn a new craft, meet friends, support the Community Centre, or simply pop in for breakfast or lunch, we would love to see you there.

Come along, bring a friend, and enjoy a warm village morning together.
All are welcome – just drop in!
