THE Trustees and committee of The Wembdon Village Hall and Playing Field Trust are pleased to confirm that the cessation of site activities.

Financial difficulties of Woodlands and their subsequent entering liquidation proceedings has now been resolved and all legal and financial issues associated with that liquidation have now been completed.

Following detailed re-measuring of remaining works, and a formal tender exercise, contractors have now been appointed to complete the village hall and associated works.

The schedule will involve external works and the timing will be a little weather dependent but we are hopeful that parts of the hall will be usable by the end of this year and completion scheduled for early 2017.

Our thanks to staff and councillors at SDC and Wembdon PC for their practical and professional support.

We would like to take this opportunity to commend the local community for their support, patience and concern and all those users of the public space especially the dedicated band of litter pickers.

A contact record has been kept of all those interested in organising groups and events, they will be contacted and bookings will commence as soon as a firm completion date is established.
