It’s good news from Stroud Village Hall, now covering its costs, a vital task to keep the Hall at the centre of the community.

Hall Manager Katy Lace tells us more about what has been going on, as they prepare for Village Halls week which runs from 16 to 22 March.

They also have some new trustees, Heather Coulson and Chris Holt, who talk to Mike Waddington about the role and what it involves for them and why they do it.

The Hall, they say, gives a focal point for the community, with lots of classes for all ages, parties, the Stroud Revels (July) and in April, with the Parish Council, the litter pick.
