Village halls are often at the heart of village life, from children and infant activities, places of safety, recreation classes and much more beyond. 

At Somerset Prepared we especially know the important role village and community halls play during emergencies, serving as places of safety, rest centre and community hubs to support those in need.

To highlight the amazing role these places play, Action with Rural Communities in England (ACRE) is running Village Halls week 23-29th January 2023. The sixth annual campaign emphasises at how village halls can provide warm, welcoming and inclusive spaces by sharing inspiring stories and encouraging halls to host open days in the week.
