If you’re looking for unique gift ideas for family and friends ahead of the festive season then save the date and join our local artists, crafters and makers as we host the 2025 Coldridge Winter Fair at Coldridge Village Hall & St Matthew’s Church on Saturday 22nd November, between 10am and 2pm.

The event flyer indicates some of what you can expect, along with refreshment plans and confirmation that there’ll be a Prize Raffle on the day. Proceeds raised from the fair will go to the “4 Josh” appeal and Coldridge Village Hall.

If you’d like to donate a cake for the refreshments table or a prize for the raffle, please contact Vickki Ridge.

On behalf of the 2026 Coldridge Fete Committee, you are invited to join us for an Open Meeting on Monday 17th November to learn how preparations for the 2026 event are progressing AND to take part in a ballot for your preference for the distribution of Fete proceeds.

If you cannot attend on the night but want your views/vote to be counted please contact Suzanne Taylor before the meeting.

This coming Friday’s Coldridge Arms will be hosting the 2025-26 Season team draws for our Coldridge Village Hall Pontoon Football Competition – a monthly competition raising valuable funds for the upkeep and running of Coldridge Village Hall.

Entries cost £5/month, and if your 3 teams score 21 goals in any month you’re up for winning a cash prize worth upto half of that month’s subs.

Check the flyer below to find out how to get further details and hopefully we’ll see you this Friday 11th July at the Coldridge Arms.
