Village activities and events in Bucknell
Bucknell is a small village in North Oxfordshire, a couple of miles north-west of Bicester. Much of what happens here happens at the village hall, from a weekly drop-in for tea and a chat to monthly bingo, film nights and talks.
Everything listed below is open to people living in Bucknell and the villages nearby. If you are new to the village, the drop-in on a Friday afternoon is an easy place to start. Each activity has its own contact, so you can ask about times and whether you need to book.
Regular activities at the village hall
Many different activities are available at the hall. The ones we know about are listed on this page with the day, the time and a named contact. Yoga classes are also available — see yogabodyandsoul.co.uk for details — and NCT classes are held through the year, with more information at nct.org.uk.
Activities are run by the groups themselves, not by the parish council, so please contact the person named against each one. If a day, time or contact number here is out of date, tell the clerk and we will correct it.
One-off and seasonal events
We have no one-off or seasonal events confirmed for the village calendar at the moment. When dates are set, they will appear on this page as a dated list, with the venue and times stated exactly, and past events will be moved to an archive so you are never reading something from two years ago.
Please note that the film night does not run in July and August.
Who can use the village hall and the playing field?
Both are village facilities for residents of Bucknell and the groups that meet here. For the current rules on who can hire the hall and use the playing field, email the clerk at bucknell.clerk@gmail.com.
How do I book the village hall?
Contact the parish clerk in the first instance, by email at bucknell.clerk@gmail.com or by phone on 07712627409, and you will be pointed to the person who takes bookings.
Is there a charge to hire the hall?
We have not published hire charges on this page, because they need confirming by the council. Ask the clerk and you will be given the current rates.
Who do I ask about joining a club or class?
Each activity has its own contact. Contact Jane Ashe on 243 602 about the Friday drop-in and film night, Pat Brain on 322 562 about bingo, and Kate Hedges on 07712627409 about the Women's Institute. For yoga see yogabodyandsoul.co.uk, and for NCT classes see nct.org.uk.
Village facilities
The village hall is the main venue for activities in Bucknell, and the village has a playing field. You can read more about both on the village hall and playing field pages of this site. We are gathering up-to-date photographs of the facilities and will add them here once the council has approved them.
