Christmas Tree ‘switch-on’ 2024

So good to see so many smiles from Villagers enjoying our Woodchurch ‘switch-on’ event again this year on 30th November.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported this event!

A particular Thank you to the family of the late Bob Turk, who ensured his wishes to donate the Christmas Tree again this year were fulfilled.

Thanks to Woodchurch HUB & Woodchurch Parish Council, we also had more lights to go on the tree this.

In addition, one of our Woodchurch in Bloom volunteers made our wonderful lit star to go on the top of the tree this year – all made from recycled / upcycled items

Exciting news too – Our Woodchurch ‘Pop up’ Choir debuted at this event! Watch this space for more appearances!

2025 ‘Switch-on’ is Saturday 29th November! 🎄

Sunflower competition – judging day, 31st August 2024

We had a brilliant time judging our entries again this year.

A big thank you to our chief judge, Etta for doing such a great job!

A new record for WIB for the ‘biggest face’ at 34cm! 🌻

Thank you to all that took part!

The overall winners of course are the wildlife!

Funniest face!
The biggest face – a new record at 34cm!

Woodchurch Carnival 2024

What a day for our Village, with what appeared to be well over a thousand people enjoying themselves, starting with the parade, the stalls, the food, fun fair, music, kids zone and all the events in the Arena!

Our float was combined with ‘WoodchurchYard Together’, Woodchurch Cottage Flowers & Woodchurch Market Garden – several of us spent 2 days building it which was great fun – our theme being ‘Dig for Woodchurch’

We were delighted how it all came together thanks to the many helpers.

Icing on the cake was when we won overall best mobile float!

Huge well done to all the organisers & volunteers – roll on 2026!
