Francis Giffen Memorial Hall

The hall is on Main Street. It is by the parish council but leased to and run by a charitable trust. There is a village notice board which hangs on the wall outside the village hall, on Main Street. One end of the board is for the Parish Council, the other end is for the village hall, and the middle section is open to anyone who wants to post something relevant to the village.

Various events are organised by the trustees for which dates are published via email.

The Francis Giffen Memorial Hall is available for hire. Tables and chairs are also available. 
Please visit their website or enquire by email: Sudboroughfgmh@outlook.com

Defibrillator

We have a village defibrillator, which is mounted on the right hand side of the village hall. No training is needed to use it, you open it when required and it has an audio guide that talks you through what you need to do.Should you ever have to use it, please contact the telephone number given. The appropriate organisation will come and collect it, reset it and put it back in place at the village hall. This is a free service.
