Chamley Arms Open!

This is just a quick post to tell you about some important local community news. After many years of closure (well over 10 years,) The Chamley Arms has finally reopened! The building has been painted and re-modelled and is now open for business. I hope that local residents will support this new community facility: it is rare to have a pub re-open, as quite a number are closing each month across the country.

I’m not sure about opening hours but I do know they take dogs and hopefully will be open in the daytime for coffee etc. I’m sure further details will emerge soon. This really is a case of use it or lose it so please do what you can to make it a viable and wonderful pub in Warcop.

Possible Dance Class


Do you fancy a bit of Strictly at the Hall? Would you like to be taught the skills of Salsa or learn how to Cha Cha Cha or do the waltz? We have an experienced teacher from Appleby who is keen to start a class on Wednesday afternoons at Warcop Parish Hall (probably at 2pm,) but we need to have committed members to join the class to make it viable. She will adapt her teaching to your ability, mobility and interests. Above all it will be a a social occasion with refreshments included. It will be a fun session, probably an hour long, price to be worked out.

If you think you would like to try this new class, even if it’s initially for a trial period, please let me know a.s.a.p. either by email keetleyjd@sky.com or on 41390. If we can get about 10 people, the class could start late September or early October.

Community Minibus for Hire

You may be aware that a community minibus is kept at the Parish Hall car park. This allows the regular run on Friday mornings to Great Asby and Appleby, (plus Silverband if required.) We really need more passengers on this service so please do get in touch about the Rural Wheels scheme. We have 4 volunteer drivers and we can pick you up and drop you off almost at your front door!

In addition to this Friday service, the minibus is available to hire for local schools and organisations. Again, we would like to see this sort of hire expand. Attached is a leaflet with more information on if you are interested, including contact details:

July GNAA Bag Collection

Thank you to everyone who brought bags down to the hall on Saturday the 13th July and those who also stayed for our Coffee Morning. The GNAA have informed us that our bags weighed 208kg which equates to £208 raised for their charity. Now that books and heavier items have been removed from collections by GNAA, we’ll need to collect a lot more bags next time to increase the total!

Please note that our next bag collection will take place on SATURDAY 14TH DECEMBER to coincide with our Christmas Coffee Morning, 10 – 11:30am. Bags need to at the hall by 11am please when the GNAA van is booked.

Thank you again for supporting this vital service.
