As the Christmas lights are packed away and the New Year begins, we’d like to take a moment to say a very warm welcome back to everyone who uses Ripon Community House.
Whether you’re one of our regular hirers, a volunteer, a visitor popping in for an activity, or someone who simply sees RCH as a familiar and welcoming place, you are a valued part of our community. After the busy festive period, it’s lovely to open our doors again and see the house come back to life with friendly faces, conversations, laughter, and shared moments.
Christmas and New Year can be a joyful time, but it can also be tiring, emotional, or challenging for many. Ripon Community House exists to be a place of connection, kindness, and support all year round – and that doesn’t change in 2026. We remain a space where people can come together, feel welcome, and know they belong.
To our hirers: thank you for choosing Ripon Community House as the home for your groups, meetings, classes, and activities. What you bring into the building is what makes it special. Every session held here helps strengthen the sense of community we’re so proud of.
To everyone who uses RCH in any way: thank you for being part of what makes this place more than just a building. It’s the people – the conversations in the rooms, the shared cups of tea, the support quietly offered – that truly make Ripon Community House what it is.
As we move into 2026, we look forward to another year of working together, supporting one another, and continuing to be a welcoming, caring space at the heart of Ripon.
From all of us at Ripon Community House, thank you for being part of our community. We’re so glad to have you back.
Here’s to a kind, connected, and community-filled year ahead. ✨
The RCH Team 💚
