The village hall committee hosted an afternoon tea to mark the occasion of the King’s Coronation. Timing couldn’t have been better as we finally also managed to erect our wonderful village mosaic in time for the celebrations. We were also treated to a wildflower walk on the Bank Holiday Monday by village resident Paul who shared his knowledge generously. The walk was well attended and it was lovely to see the community spirit in the chat afterwards over tea and cake.
Tamar & Jo, synchronised-swimmer athletes wowed Ebberston in April with their agility and finesse as they transported us to our favourite northern seaside town! What a great evening of silly, seaside-themed entertainment.
Some quotes from audience
“What a brilliant evening of entertainment.”
“From the opening George Michael and Elton John “cover” to the climatic sea side sketch a really well crafted programme. The timeless sea side bingo and the prize raffle rounded off a really enjoyable evening. Many thanks to the village hall committee for booking the artists, very much appreciated.”

Ebberston Wildflower Walk
Monday 8th May, 10am start
Wildflower meadows are being planted to mark King Charles III’s Coronation but do you know about the wild flowers right on our doorstep? Join village resident and nature expert Paul Thompson on a wildflower walk around Ebberston, where he will give an introduction to wildflower identification and look at the medicinal properties of some common herbs.
Meet at the village hall at 10am.
The walk will take around 1.5 hours, then back to the village hall at the end for tea/coffee. No charge for this event but donations to the village hall are welcome.
Our next Rural Arts event on 27 April at the village hall will be with Tamar & Jo who will bring their unique brand of dance-comedy to Ebberston with their 
seaside-meets-synchronised-swimming themed duet Sync or Swim.
Suitable for all ages, the show is brought to us via Rural Arts rural touring scheme. After some seaside bingo (silly prizes!) in the first half, we will follow two synchronised swimmers 
as they spend a bizarre day at the seaside in a tightly choreographed routine.
The piece started life as part of the company’s Doorstep Dances project, which took over 600 5-minute performances to doorsteps, streets and public spaces across Hull during the pandemic.
Tickets are £10. You can book your tickets on the door at the village breakfast (Saturday 25 March), or online here https://www.ruralarts.org/…/sync-or-swim-ebberston…/
We will run our pop-up bar 
again on the evening (from 6.45pm) and all profits from the evening will go to Ebberston Village Hall (Reg. Charity 523346).
We look forward to hosting Dr Jim Leary (University of York) on Thursday 23rd February at Ebberston Village Hall, 7pm.
£4 on door (incl. refreshments) and fundraising raffle. All proceeds support Ebberston Village Hall, Charity Reg. No. 523346
Ebberston Village Hall is having a tidy up. Helpers welcome!
Our next music event at the village hall is an evening of blues with Howlin’ Mat on Friday 3rd February 2023 at 7.15pm.
Mat Partner is a blues singer, guitarist

An entertaining evening is guaranteed.
Tickets are £10 in advance (Available via 01723 859730 / 80 Main St in the village). We will run our pop-up bar again (cash only 💵) on the evening. All proceeds to Ebberston Village Hall (Reg. Charity 523346).
