What's on in Bradford Abbas

Dorset, England

Bradford Abbas sits quietly in Dorset with enough charm to make you forget the traffic back home. The village hall runs regular gatherings that keep locals connected without needing a shout from a megaphone. It is rare to find a spot so peaceful yet still full of life. Even when there are no big crowds, the community spirit stays strong through local groups and seasonal markets. Near Here keeps an eye on what's going on so you can plan your afternoon with confidence. You won't have to wander far to find something that suits your mood or family.

Craft Group

Every Thursday; unless advised otherwise, we meet as a group to be creative and chat. Anyone can come (and go) as time suits. We would love to meet you and see your creations. Our Craft Group is run by Anne Plympton who is a Craft Specialist and many of the designs in the church are Anne’s creations. Craft Group is a time where we meet weekly, make many new friends and help one another out with advice and guidance about making things. Its also a time when we can just socialise, getting to know one another over a biscuits, cake or a cup of tea (coffee if you prefer). We normally break during the summer school holiday period ALL ARE WELCOME!!
