In celebration of Volunteers Week 2025, we wanted to spotlight a couple of our fantastic volunteers who regularly give up their time for the benefit of the community.

🌟 Next up, Carol Brunner!🌟

Not only is she a ‘floating’ volunteer at the shop, meaning she picks up shifts at The Pavilion Stores & Cafe as and when she can, she's on the PPC at Parracombe Christ Church and volunteers weekly for the National Trust.

Learn more about what she does and why, including why visitors to our beautiful village should check out Heddon Valley while they're here... 👉

Drop in at The Pavilion Stores & Cafe to ask about more opportunities to volunteer, or email [email protected] to learn more.

Might you lend a hand? We’re lucky to have so many brilliant volunteers who give up their time to support the Community Trust. But there are plenty of ‘back office’ jobs that still need to be done and so if you’re an existing volunteer open to committing a few more hours a month please don.....

In celebration of Volunteers Week 2025, we wanted to spotlight a couple of our fantastic volunteers who regularly give up their time for the benefit of the community.

First up, Sarah McMahon! 👏

Not only is she a ‘floating’ volunteer at the shop, meaning she picks up shifts at The Pavilion Stores & Cafe as and when she can, she's also Secretary for Parracombe Community Trust, a member of the Events Team AND an attendee at ad hoc volunteer activities like village clean-ups.

Learn more about what she does and why, and her top tip for those considering volunteering with us 👉

It’s Volunteer Week! A UK-wide campaign to recognise and celebrate the contribution of volunteers.

We want to take this opportunity to say a great big THANK YOU to every single one of our volunteers.

Whether you take on a shift or two at the The Pavilion Stores & Cafe, fight uphill battles on behalf of the community to preserve our beloved village hall or sit on the housing team, driving a more affordable future for local families – or take on any other volunteer role for the trust – we are so grateful.

We’ll be sharing a couple of volunteer spotlights this week, along with more opportunities to get involved so keep your eyes peeled on our social media channels!

Want to get involved in ? Why not share a picture, a memory or your favourite thing about volunteering, to share with us and your friends in family a little more about what you do and why…don't forget to tag us!

We're celebrating !

An annual campaign that shines a spotlight on the contribution England’s 10,000+ village halls make to rural communities.

Huge thanks to the 12 volunteers who gave their time and saw the transformation of the outside of our hall in less than two hours.

What a fantastic start to start to Village Hall's Week!
