CONGRATULATIONS TO WING VILLAGE HALL


Congratulations to Wing Village Hall for being one of three finalists in the RCCโ€™s (Rural Communities Council) Leicestershire and Rutlandโ€™s 100 years centenary awards for the Best Community Building of the Year, held on Thursday 3rd October 2024.

Wing Village Hall was pipped at the post and were a runner up – and are very proud to have been recognised in this way.

RCC who brought their coffee van to Wing and the village hall on three Wednesdays in March 2024 were amazed at the turnout for the coffee van from the locals – anything for a free coffee and a chat! They were impressed with the level of community use of the village hall and interaction amongst the residents.

Attending on behalf of the village hall from the Management Committee were Sally Cox (Chair), Philip Moores, James Fish with Ian Newsham (creator and director of Wing Draws Wing – the community project to teach Wing villagers to draw).
