What's on in Priestlands

Dorset, England

Priestlands in Dorset is a quiet corner of the county where you can find everything from local markets to community plays without needing a map app. It feels like a proper village where everyone knows your name and the next gig is just round the bend. There are plenty of ways to pass a rainy afternoon or stretch out on a sunny Sunday, even if we haven't got a long list of big venues right now. We keep an eye on what's coming up so you don't have to waste time searching for something to do nearby.

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!!
