It has since been administered by Trustees, Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer along with Committee Members elected annually and representing the hall hirer’s and the village community.The Hall has benefitted greatly over many years from the fundraising and care from many of the residents, past and present who have worked tirelessly to preserve and cherish the Hall for generations to come.The Hall is currently used regularly by the Trunch Art Group, Garden Society, the Indoor Bowls Club, Table Tennis Club, the Yoga Group, Trunch Friends and The Knitting and Stitching GroupIt forms the hub of the Open Gardens and Scarecrows Day and part of the Trunchonbury Music Festival.
