• Operation Good Neighbour (Coronavirus Support)

    Operation Good Neighbour Hoveton and Wroxham, the local Coronavirus community assistance scheme, is now up and running. The scheme will coordinate volunteers and arrange for the delivery of food and medicine to local residents who have no other means of support such as non-isolating family or friends or other support groups. The scheme can be contacted via its website or Facebook page.

    Operation Good Neighbour has been set up and will be run by the Wroxham and Hoveton Good Neighbours Scheme (part of Community Action Norfolk). The scheme is supported by the local Church, local Councillors for Wroxham and Hoveton, and the Parish Councils of Hoveton and Wroxham.

  • Coronavirus Community Assistance

    Hoveton Parish Council is currently working with other local groups and organisations such as Wroxham Parish Council, The Wroxham Benefice, Wroxham & Hoveton Good Neighbour Scheme and Hoveton & Wroxham Medical Centre to provide a co-ordinated local community response to the Coronavirus pandemic. It is hoped a system will be set up to help with food and medicine deliveries and to provide general support for those who are self-isolating in the local community. Further details will be shared on our website and Facebook page and on the parish noticeboards as soon as they are available.

    In the meantime, please visit nhs.uk/coronavirus for the latest Coronavirus updates from the NHS and Public Health England.

  • Hoveton Village Hall Closure

    Following the latest Government advice concerning the Coronavirus pandemic, the Hoveton Village Hall Management Committee has taken the difficult decision to close Hoveton Village Hall in order to protect the health and wellbeing of all employees, volunteers, and visitors to the Village Hall.

    This closure will take effect immediately until further notice. It is hoped it will be possible for the Village Hall to re-open as of Saturday 20th June 2020. However, this date is only provisional and may change in accordance with the latest Government guidelines.

    Please note that the Blood Transfusion Service will still be visiting the Village Hall on Friday 27th March, so if you have an appointment booked for this session, please attend as normal to help keep this vital service well stocked. The Blood Transfusion Service may attend extra dates at Hoveton Village Hall over the coming months, so please like and follow the Hoveton Village Hall & Park Facebook page for further updates.
