Woodchurch Community Support is here to provide ongoing help and assistance to those who need it in the village. If you are a Club or Society in need of additional volunteers or a village resident continuing to shield, we can help put you in contact with our Community Volunteers. Whether you are looking for someone to help transport within the village, assist with a task, support an event, or provide assistance with shopping or collecting urgent supplies, we are here to try to match you with someone who can help.
If you are in need of help or would like to become a volunteer
What's New
- MESSAGE FROM HELEN FOX, PRACTICE MANAGER AT WOODCHURCH SURGERY:
I would like to confirm that patients who have a second Covid vaccination appointment booked in for this Friday or Saturday should still come. Moving forward we will follow the Government’s recent change of guidance to extend the second dose interval but as this cohort had already been booked in we are being supported by Kent and Medway CCG to continue this clinic as planned. - The Woodchurch HUB has had to close but will open again soon. Due to the pandemic restrictions The HUB has had to temporarily physically close. We are still open online and you can contact us on enquiries@woodchurchhub.uk or by phone on 01233 861381. We will open up our doors again as soon as we are able. If you are wanting to give a donation at the HUB to the appeal, please post in an envelope through the HUB letterbox.

Woodchurch is a Kent village, the largest civil parish in the Borough of Ashford. It is centred 6 miles (9.7 km) from the market town of Ashford and 4 miles (6 km) from the Cinque Ports town of Tenterden, in Kent, South East England. The village became firmly established in the 13th century with the erection of the large All Saints church which still boasts a 13th-century chancel. The windmill that overlooks the village from the north commands extensive views over the Walland marshes to the English Channel coast.
Woodchurch Hub is a not-for-profit organisation that is supported by Woodchurch Parish Council, whose main objectives are to promote the wellbeing of Woodchurch residents and to bring together local social groups, charities and local businesses within the Woodchurch area. We encourage “think-local-buy-local” and work towards ensuring our rural community continues to thrive. More is achieved by working together.
The Parish Council meets on the 4th Thursday of each month. Please check noticeboard or website for agenda and to confirm meeting is taking place at 7.00 pm in the Memorial Hall Annexe. Anyone from the village is welcome to attend these meetings, which include an Open Forum where matters that you would like to be considered by the Council can be discussed.

Dear Readers
Not in anyway posting this to frighten dog owners but to raise awareness.
This is not directly in Ashford but close enough to say stay alert and vigilant.
These criminals are heartless people who have no concern or understanding of the heartbreak or sadness their actions cause people.
Stay alert and vigilant
Thank you

Perhaps if you let your dog out in the garden for a Wee, you should stay with them to keep them safe.
Volunteer Befrienders needed. Can you help?
