Winterborne Whitechurch Village Hall

Right, confession time! I can own up when something doesn’t quite work, and let’s be honest— ‘Book Haven’ just didn’t roll off the tongue, did it? As it happens, everyone’s been calling it ‘the library’ anyway, so after a re-vote last night (fuelled, by a strong brew or two  made by Jacqui), we’ve officially settled on ‘The Library’. Classic, simple, and dare I say, a bit posh.

Now, onto our next adventure! The ceiling has politely asked for a rain check until next year—apparently, even ceilings like to take the odd holiday. So, we’re focusing our energies on the walls and furniture for now. Any day soon, The Library will be donning a snazzy new coat of paint and some smashing furniture to boot. Our mission? To have it all ready and looking splendid before Christmas. Yes, it’s a tall order and the clock is ticking, but if we don’t quite manage that, The Library will definitely be ready to dazzle by our grand launch on 02/01/2026.

Watch this space for more details about the big day. Who knows, there might even be cake (or at least a celebratory biscuit) involved!
