Kelfield Village Institute

Kelfield Village Institute Based in Kelfield, North Yorkshire, Kelfield Village Institute provides a venue and meeting place for a wide range of community activities and events.

Kelfield Village Institute was built circa 1924 and given to the village by Zoe Beatrice Preston of Moreby Hall during World War II. It has since had a group of trustees and a management committee. It has hosted home guard exercises, 'tanner hops', produce shows, concerts, plays, parties, parish council meetings and has served as a polling station over the years. It proudly displays the roll of ho

nour of the Kelfield men who served their country during the Great War. Its original floor was replaced after over 85 years wear and tear in 2010 following a remarkable fundraising initiative. It now regularly offers villagers: aerobics, bingo, pilates, zumba, a book exchange with refreshments and also provides the Kelfield Family Group with a clean and safe weekly meeting place. The institute committee also organises regular seasonal community events and offers the facility as a venue for private bookings be they dance or music rehearsals, corporate events or family celebrations.

JOIN 'Kelfield Community - KVI Volunteers' WhatsApp group. 💚

What is it:
A notification group for those who enjoy helping with the odd KVI task but don't have time to be on the committee.

What's involved:
We'd post a "can any one help with..." Type message and you could respond or not depending on your availability.

What do I do:
Just send us your name and number via DM (message this page) and we'll add you to the WhatsApp group.

👉🏼 FAQs
Do I have to do a lot? - NO

If I help once, does that mean I must always do that task? - NO

Can I leave the group if I change my mind? - YES

Will my phone be going off every five seconds? - NO. This is for KVI specific tasks, mostly related to events being run. Volunteers will be called upon infrequently, there will be minimal notifications.

We use word of mouth, why not stick to that? - This is a quicker, clearer and easier way for the committee to call for volunteers.

DM now, we look forward to hearing from you. 💚
