About The Cookley Playing Fields & Village Hall Association Charity
The object of the charity is “in the interests of social welfare, to improve the conditions of life of the inhabitants of the area of benefit without distinction of political, religious, or other opinions by the provision and maintenance of a village hall for use by the inhabitants, including use for meetings, lectures and classes and other forms of recreation and leisure-time occupation; and a recreation ground for use by the inhabitants.”
We are a group of volunteers who give our time to ensure that the wonderful fields and facilities are secured and protected for future generations in Cookley. 6 of us are village residents who are elected by the village at the Annual General Meeting and the remaining trustees are made up from representatives from organisations who use the facilities and/or have an interest.
We meet on the 1st Thursday of every month in Meeting Room 1, in the Village Hall. There is an open door policy so that all Cookley residents or facility users can come along and air their views, bring ideas or just listen in. These are not public meetings but you will be given an opportunity to speak if you would like to. We look forward to seeing some of you in the future.
If you would like to make a comment or suggestion but cannot attend a meeting please email cookleyvillagehallsecretary@gmail.com and we will get back to you.
The site is always busy and with so many great activities, sports groups, charity groups and so many more users the site offers endless opportunities for young and old alike.
Cookley Sports Club provide most welcomed financial support to the charity by running events on the field, we hope you all enjoy them. They provide a significant part of the lifeblood that allows us to maintain and improve all of our facilities.
We really value the support of all Cookley residents who use this facility. We couldn’t do it without you!
