This is the monthly calendar of activities that take place in the Village Institute. We hope to produce one every month for information for village residents. The leaflets will be available in the Library and for other groups if they would like copies.
The Community Library and Embsay Preschool are situated in their own rooms within the main building. The activities in the hall include Carpet Bowls, Table Tennis, Exercise classes, including Pilates and Yoga, Art Classes, Bridge Club, New Beginnings (Parent’s Support group), Flower Club, Women’s Institute, Film Club, and U3A classes.
The main hall and Supper room are available to hire for parties and events.
