Working to make Martham a greener, safer and more attractive village for all
Martham villagers have great community spirit and we want to make sure we celebrate all their efforts year-round. So, if you know someone who makes Martham the marvellous village it is, tell us all about them.
Nominate your village hero today!
New date 24th July (was 17th July)
After letting you know we’d postponed our June meeting to 1st July owing to staff availability we’ve made the decision as a result to move our July meeting back slightly to 24th July. After our August break we intend to return to our regular slot on the third Wednesdays each month from September.
We know, it’s never easy when dates have to change unexpectedly. We’re not keen on it either so won’t do it often. It’s surprisingly hard to make sure absolutely everybody hears the news. So please help us by telling any friends who are not internet users about this update. We’ll be updating the noticeboards around the village shortly.
Thanks for your understanding.
Our quizzing village heroes really got into the community spirit tonight helping us raise over £320 for defibrillators in Martham via Heart 2 Heart Norfolk taking our total so far to over £700. You’re all marvellous, thank you so much!
Local businesses and villagers generously provided raffle prizes and our winning prize for the top quizzers on the night. Cantley Cock, Martham DIY, The Boat House, Doggers Plaice, Sara’s Tearooms, Great Yarmouth, Tesco Extra Great Yarmouth. We’re very grateful for all your support 
.
Well done to those behind the scenes including councillors and villagers who worked together tonight including Sharon, Ted, Lee, the two Mikes, Jules and Bob.
Our next quiz will be on Saturday 9th November where you’ll be invited to ‘Bring Your Own Food and Drink’ for your team. Save the date – more information coming soon.
