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 whose main objectives are to promote the wellbeing of Woodchurch residents and to bring together local social groups and charities within the Woodchurch area. The HUB provides community support through The HUB building six days each week and at other times by phone and email. As well as a central information helpline, in cojunction with the Tenterden Social Hub we organise the “Meals on wheels” service within Woodchurch and, in conjunction with Woodchurch Surgery and the Jean Mealham Centre we assist with transport and prescription collection.
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.
For the first time since 1989, Woodchurch Parish Council is embarking on a comprehensive survey of residents’ views. The questionnaires will give you an opportunity to tell the Parish Council about matters of relevance to you and your family. Your responses will help to inform the Parish Council’s future plans and the things they can do, either alone or with partners, to improve your quality of life. There are two separate surveys that can be completed – one is a general survey that is relevant to all parish residents, the other is specifically aimed at the youth in the parish.
The survey is not just about seeking the views of the current householders on current issues. The Council is equally interested to hear about the legacy it should leave for future generations. Consequently, we would encourage parents to involve their children, where possible.
At the beginning of November each household in the parish should receive a prited copy of each of the surveys. If you have not received a copy, or would like additional copies of the survey, please either download or complete the survey online or contact The HUB for a printed copy.
