Connecting communities to health and wellbeing is the theme for this year's Village Halls Week and our upcoming Community Buildings Event.

Join us on Saturday 14th March at Braithwaite Institute, to celebrate village halls and hear from a range of speakers about the wide variety of ways they help to keep people healthy, active and connected.

We’re looking forward to meeting up again in-person, providing more opportunities for discussion and networking, and we'll also be launching Village Halls Week which this year runs from Monday 16 - Sunday 22 March. 

Community Buildings events are free of charge and open to all Cumbria's Community Building / Village Hall committee members. Registration is essential and must be completed by midday on Wednesday 11th March in order to guarantee your place (earlier than usual to allow for venue and food arrangements).

Join us from 10am for a cuppa and to chat to stallholders and other halls; presentations will start at 10.30am.

Hybrid Event: For those unable to join us in person, this event is also available to attend online, please indicate when booking if this is how you’ll be joining us. Online participants will be sent the event link on the day and are asked to join from 10.15am

The venue can be reached using public transport
