Bench Working Party
The Kimpton Bench Working Party
We are a group of volunteers, men and women, that meet once a week to do a variety of jobs around the village. Jobs such as painting railings, trimming hedges, mending gravestones, repairing fences, putting up Christmas lights and so on. Our origins are in repairing old and installing new benches - hence the title of the group. Keeping the village benches stained and repaired is still one of our tasks. We also help at local functions, for instance, manning the gate at The Kimpton Horse Show, putting up tables at The Kimpton Autumn Show.
There is a seemingly inexhaustible number of things to do to keep Kimpton tidy so new members are always welcome.
