Events in Stanford Dingley
Stanford Dingley has a wonderfully enthusastic and active Events Committee which are comitted to organising a great diversity of events for the local community over the seasons. We are extremely lucky to have a village hall, a village field and a village green which gives us great opportunies to hold a variety of events.
Over the past few years we have held plant sales on the green, talks given on a variety of subjects from a walking talk the geology of the pang valley to historical military talk in the hall. There has been village picnics in the field, Easter Egg Hunts for the children of the village, curry nights and Christmas parties. The big events of last year focused around The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and included a beacon ceremony by The Bull Inn and a traditional village street party on the Sunday by The Old Boot Inn which encompassed the whole village and brought the whole community together for a wonderfu afternoon. This years events will be centered around The King’s Coronation in May and more details will be posted once finalised by the Events team.
We have events being planned for The King’s Coronation in May which will be posted here soon once finalised by the Events Team.
