The Friends

The Friends committee meets and communicates regularly to ensure information and events are part of the villages’ communities.

The Friends AGM will take place by Zoom on Tuesday 24 March at 7.30pm. The link will be sent from the Friends email for those who are available to join the committee and hope to see some familiar faces. We maintain the request for donations for event subsidies and donations at £5 per person.

We are very sorry to lose Caz Nichols from the committee due to other commitments but are very grateful for her support over the past few years.

However we are delighted to welcome Gerry Clarke on to the committee. He and wife Miriam recently moved to Langrish from Dublin to be near family in Petersfield. They have also lived in Canada. This means we do still have one vacancy on the committee and would welcome new requests to join.

There were few Friends events recently but there are several events planned over the next few months, which we hope will be fun and with good attendance.

The coffee morning hosted by Marjorie Day in October was a cosy enjoyable affair.

In November Nigel and Robina held a drinks evening at Langrish House which was very well attended and the bar tended by Charles Haydon.

The Christmas dinner was enjoyed by a number of Langrish and Ramsdean residents at the Olde George in December. This will be booked again for 10 December 2026.

The coffee morning on 29 January was hosted by Debbie Luff.

Some years ago Ian Wesley gave us a talk on 40 years of the Squeaker. Now having seen it in existence for 45 years, we thought you might like a reminder of what’s happened over the years. This is only readable online so if you don’t have an online copy of the Squeaker then please email langrishramsdeanfriends@gmail.com for the link, otherwise you can see it from here on this link
