This week is volunteers week and I couldn’t put it better than Action for Communities in Rural England in the article below who call volunteers making safe and enjoyable spaces in village halls ‘unsung heroes’.

A huge thank you to all the trustees and volunteers supporting the Institute and other organisations in Wylam for everything you do.

In the next week a leaflet and questionnaire will be dropping through the letterbox of everyone in NE41 to ask you for views on the future of the Institute.

We want to thank everyone who has completed the survey so far, which is also available online via our website https://northumberlandvillagehalls.org.uk/wylam-institute-community-association.

The Institute is only hired for 15% of the available time and we want to modernise and encourage a diverse range of activities and services to benefit everyone in NE41. Having your views on how we should develop is vitally important to creating a thriving community venue.

The survey date has been extended to 31 May and you can drop off completed questionnaires in the Institute postbox.

Also the first edition of our Wylam Whispers newsletter is coming too. Future issues will be online only and you can receive these and other occasional updates on the Institute by emailing [email protected] with your name and email address to add to our mailing list.

Thank you.
