More Goings On at the Village Hall

More Goings on at the Village Hall took place at Stoke by Nayland Village Hall at 3pm on Saturday, 1st June 2019. The event, organised by the enthusiastic Patricia Brindley and Emma Bishton, featured a programme of music, poetry and prose performed by a group of talented individuals.
Patricia opened proceedings and introduced Paul Marshall, Trustee of Friends of the Ferns (FotF) who gave a short talk about The Ferns and how FotF support them.
The performance showcased ‘The Monday Singers’, who, not surprisingly, meet every Monday at the Village Hall to sing their favourite songs, under the direction of Emma. Although they do not usually sing in public, an exception was made for this event and, with a varied selection of songs, they made their debut.
With tea and cake served in the interval, and a raffle with prizes donated by local businesses, the fabulous amount of £2,675 was raised for the benefit of FotF.
A huge thank you to the organisers, the performers and the volunteers who helped behind the scenes
