Please see the link, below, for the agenda for this evening’s GMCC meeting, to be held in Garvald Village Hall at 7.30pm tonight:
The Minutes from the August GMCC meeting can now be viewed on the GMCC page, here: https://www.garvald.org.uk/gmcc/meetings/
This year’s children’s Christmas party will be on Sunday 7th December from 2-4pm.
After the last couple of year’s success, the ceilidh lady and her accordionist will return once more!
As per last year we will break for a children’s tea and again, if all parents could bring a plate of something to contribute to this, that would be wonderful.
Santa has been invited and has promised to be there so the plan again will be for parents to secretly bring a small, wrapped present (suggested around the £5-10 mark) labelled with their child’s name.
As ever we will be grateful for help setting up in the morning and clearing up after from those who are able.
More info to come on Garvald.org as we get nearer the time.
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. Contact us at: garvaldhogmanayhoolie@gmail.com

Garvald Village Hall
Cheese and wine will be provided
Ch
Free to a new home: an “Umbrella plant”. It has grown too big for my space. Slightly lopsided due to growth towards light, but easily rectified by better position, and possibly some light pruning. Stands being cut back for shaping, and new bushier growth. Can survive being deprived of water for longish periods.
First come first served! Collect from Garvald village. Contact Kirsty Malcolm either by contact form below, or in person.
Many thanks to the enthusiastic and energetic working party that turned up to help clear the vegetation behind GVH.
A great result was achieved
Please bring some snacks / nibbles / light bites to share as well as your preferred drink.
This is instead of a meal-based event which we have had in the past. This keeps things simple and takes the pressure off planning a little!
See you there!
