Dorset Council’s volunteer digital champions available to speak at community groups
Dorset Council’s volunteer digital champions are friendly volunteers who can help people get online and increase their confidence with all things digital.
They provide face-to-face support in libraries across the county and are now extending the service to community groups and organisations.
Dear Neighbour
Stourpaine Village Hall and the adjacent playing fields are a great asset to our village in many ways. There are regular clubs and activities held there as well as events like the Jubilee and Coronation events and The Annual Garden Club Show. The Big Breakfasts are a lovely social gathering held a few times a year. It is home to the Tennis Club and used by many people for informal recreation and is available for football games. There is always potential for developing more activities and facilities. The hall and pavilion are also available for hire for family parties, weddings, art shows, poetry events, yoga retreats, etc. etc. The hall rental forms the main income source of funding for running and maintaining the facilities.
The Village Hall and Playing Fields are managed by a management committee of volunteer trustees. This is where I am asking for your help. Most of the volunteers have to leave the committee this year, either because they have served the maximum term allowed by our scheme of governance of 6 years, or for other personal reasons.
Funding is through Project Gigibit North Dorset
An acknowledgement of the Stourpaine Parish Council’s Chair for working so hard to retain a postal service in Stourpaine.

It is now in our interests to support the service to ensure its retention.
