Local Groups

The village hall also has a volunteer run library in the small hall where you can borrow books using your Surrey Libraries card. (see also entry on bookshare).  

Beare Green Community Link Library is generally open on Mondays 2:00 to 2:20pm.  You may like to check with Hilary Christmas <hilary.christmas [use the at symbol] tiscali.co.uk>  01306 713107 before you come, to be certain.  

We have 500 books including large print which can be borrowed free of charge for three weeks.

In the corridor of the hall past the toilets, is the village bookshare (not to be confused with the library books in the front hall, which are not part of the bookshare).  You can donate books in good condition by placing them on the shelves here, and take a book away with you to borrow or keep, whenever the hall is open for any purpose.  There is no need or ability to log what books you donated or took, and you don’t need a library card, as this is not the library.   Gary Anstee (g.y.anstee [use the at symbol] gmail.com 01306711907) mans the bookshare Mondays and Wednesdays from 10:10 to 1

Amy Miller Yoga has occasional weekday evening classes at Beare Green Village Hall.  I teach Hatha Yoga – this is the description of most forms of yoga taught today, as simply put, it is any style of yoga that uses physical postures (asanas).  There is an element of Vinyasa Flow - literally meaning 'to place in a special way', vinyasa is a popular style of yoga that links the asanas of hatha into a flowing sequence.
