Events

Coopersale Community was inspired by rainbows appearing in windows in spring 2020. We aim to continue this spirit of togetherness and connection.

We run regular activities to help connect people from across Coopersale. Sometimes these events link to national campaigns, whilst others are unique to our village. We want people of ages and abilities to have a change to take part, have fun and feel a part of something bigger.

We are flexible in planning events, so if you have an idea, get in touch! Everyone is welcome.

Upcoming events

Weekly Coffee Mornings

Fridays, 10:00-11:30, Garnon Bushes Pub

Every Friday morning, join your neighbours for a hot drink and biscuits. These coffee mornings are for adults only, so come along with a friend or on your own. With more people coming week to week, there is always someone to chat with.

A huge thank you to Pauline for kindly allowing us to hold the coffee mornings at the pub and to Emma for setting up and clearing away.

Coopersale Community AGM

Friday 28 March, 19:00 - 20:30, Institute Hall

Our Annual General Meeting (AGM) is open to everyone. We will serve cheese and wine, followed by an update of what the Coopersale Community Committee has been up to in the past year and our plans going forward. 

We are looking for new people to join the committee to help us continue to make our village a better place to live. Volunteering is too onerous, and there is no pressure to commit to anything.

Litter pick

Saturday 5 April, 10:00-11:00, Meet at shops

Join us in making our village cleaner, greener and more beautiful. Litter pickers, bags and hi-vis vests are provided, just bring your gloves.

This is a regular event, taking place on the first Saturday, every other month from 10:00-11:00: 

Easter Egg Hunt

Saturday 19 April, 12:00 - 14:30,

St Alban the Martyr Church

This is one of the most popular and awaited events in Coopersale, hosted by our friends at St Alban's Church.

This event is more than an egg hunt! At the church there will be a cake sale, Theydon Oark BBQ, crafts, and sunflower seed planting. See if you can grow the tallest sunflower in Coopersale (entries will be judged in the summer).

The Easter Egg Hunt and crafts are for children, but the cake sale and sunflower planting are open to all ages.

Planning is underway for Quiz Night (April TBC) and Coopersale Community Day (June TBC).

We will add details once we have firm dates and plans.
