Garvald Hogmanay Hoolie

The Garvald Hogmanay Hoolie is on!  We are excited to confirm that Clappy Doo Ceilidh Band will return to Garvald Village Hall on 31st December 2025.

While we haven’t yet found new organisers to take the reins, we’re keeping the spirit alive with a bring-your-own-food celebration this year (as well as BYOB).  Pack your favourite snacks, bring your dancing shoes and come for a fun, informal evening with friends!  Further details and ticket info to follow in November.

Fancy helping this year or interested in helping to shape future Hogmanay events?  We’d love to hear from you.  It’s a brilliant way to get involved in the community, meet lovely people and keep the tradition thriving.  Please get in touch using the contact form.

    Big thank you

    A huge thank you to everyone who supported the coffee morning on Saturday with your baking, chutney, honey, apples, pears and muscle-power. And to everyone who came along to spend money.

    We made a splendid £384.31 for the village hall.

    Approximately 8 vintage hand-embroidered white linen tablecloths belonging to the Village Hall are no longer required and are available for sale. You will get a chance to buy them at the next exciting event –

      Yoga in Garvald Village Hall

      After a longer than normal break Chair Yoga and Vinyasa Yoga classes restart in the Garvald Village Hall on 2nd October, running through to mid-December.

      Chair class has moved from Tuesday to Thursday and is now a 9.30 am start.  Places are limited, to maintain a small group and informal atmosphere, and already nearly full, so book now to secure your spot!

      Vinyasa class continues at 6.30pm on Thursdays for one hour. The Autumn equinox is nearly upon us (Monday 22nd September), so why not give yourself something to do on these darker nights?  Build strength and flexibility and perhaps find your own equilibrium! To ensure classes run, advance booking at least 24 hours before is required.

      If you have never tried yoga, have done a little, or want to build on existing knowledge and experience, you are welcome to come along.

      More information can be found on the website: www.yoga-dragon.co.uk – where classes can also be booked.  Block booking discounts are available based on booking 12 or 8 classes.

      Any questions, or if you need further information, please contact Kirsty Malcolm via the online contact form, below:

        Harvest Coffee Morning on 27th September

        Time to get those apples picked!

        The Harvest coffee morning will take place in Garvald Village Hall on Saturday 27th September from 10 until 12 noon to raise some funds for the Hall.

        We’d love donations of jams, chutneys and anything baked for the Bring and Buy stall ( or extra baking for the tea stall)  Please label your baking with allergens if at all possible. If you have a few pre-loved books lying around that you think might be popular – please bring them along too.

        Excitingly you will have the opportunity to press your own apples (or someone else’s) into apple juice. So bring a bottle and some muscle power.

        Most importantly please bring CASH – all in aid of Hall funds.

        And finally we could really do with another couple of volunteer helpers on the day, so if you’d like to be that superstar please use the form below

          The Village Hall needs your help strimming and clearing!

          Hello Garvald!

          The rear of the village hall has become very overgrown again. This makes it difficult to maintain the hall and, as we will soon be starting work to renovate the hall windows, we need to clear the area so the workmen can gain access easily.
          Volunteers are needed on Sunday 5th October from 2pm. We’ll be clearing the weeds and need some helping hands.
          It’s a sizable task but with the power of the Garvald community many hands will make light work.
          See you there with your strimmers, rakes, work wear, secateurs, pruning shears, hedge trimmers…!

          There will be a fund-raising coffee morning in Garvald Village Hall on Saturday 27th September from 10 am until 12 noon.

          Tea, coffee, cakes and PRESS-YOUR-OWN apple juice! Bring apples, a bottle and any jam or chutneys for the Bring and Buy table.
