Brayford Village

As from Monday 19th July most legal limits on social contact were removed. There is no longer any limit on gatherings inside or outside or on social distancing.

However. the government's position is that people should continue to exercise caution, common sense and personal responsibility.

The village hall have decided to continue to provide hand sanitisers, one way access and support the voluntary continuation of social distancing whilst the pandemic continues at its current level. 

Come along for some fun, doors open 7:00, Bingo from 7:30.

A Car Treasure Hunt will be taking place on Sunday, 10th October in the afternoon starting from Brayford Village Hall. Tickets to include a two course meal. 

Joining details and further information will follow shortly, but please note that this event will take place on Sunday 10th October and not on the 9th October as mentioned in the recent Village Newsletter. 

High Bray and Charles WI, together with Brayford Village Hall Committee, hope that many of you will take part for what will be a very enjoyable event.

Devon Air Ambulance needs a community of volunteers to keep its 19 charity shops open and our helicopters flying. The great thing about volunteering in our retail shops is that we have a role to suit everyone, whether you are young or older, an outgoing type or someone who likes to work behind the scenes.

As with all volunteering roles you can choose where, when and for how long you volunteer.

To find out more about your nearest shop and how you can help, please contact our Volunteer Cara Jones on 01392 304343 or c.jones@daat.org

Shop locations all over Devon.
