This page lists the groups recorded in our DIRECTORY according to their Activity. There is no limit to the number of activities that may be recorded for any of them so some names are shown under several categories.
Please remember that the whole of this Directory section is still 'Under Construction'. To reach its potential we will need feedback & input so, if you see something that you think could be improved or find an omission that should be filled, please let us know.


We have so far defined the following categories (but please see the Notes below):

 

Art, Craft & Drama ("ACD")   Business ("BUS")   Charitable ("CHA")   Children ("CHI")   Educational ("EDU")

Entertainment ("ENT")   Farming Community ("FAR")   Group Marketing ("GPM")   Group Support ("GPS")

Sport & Exercise ("S&E")   Transport ("TRA")   Venue ("VEN")   Youth Groups ("YGP")

 

Entries in italics suggest a group for that activity. Next to each group is a link symbol 🔗 that will take you to above the entry for that group in the Directory (you may have to scroll down the page a bit). The following also link into the Directory:

Notes
(1) Allocation to these categories is at times rather arbitrary. We welcome polite suggestions for amendments.
(2) For the Village & Community Halls, we have tried to follow the activity descriptions given by the Halls in the listing on Herefordshire County Council's site (here). If you disagree with what is shown on that listing, please advise the person who has been identified in that listing as the Contact for the Hall. We are not responsible for what is shown on those listings. However, please let us know if that listing entry has been updated and you think we should update what we report in this site.
(3) The Business Activity was introduced in November 2019. A Pubs Activity will probably be introduced before the end of April 2020 in support of the Open Letter #4 that will be included in the forthcoming second edition of our Second Brochure. We will include only those organisations whose actions include a reasonable amount that is clearly 'community supportive'. We are not interested in advertising businesses but we do accept that people who wish to do good for their community may still have to make a living. Some pubs, cafés and similar organisations may qualify because they are known to host regular community-supportive activities beyond simple events that are (or appear to be) driven primarily by commercial considerations. Any organisation that has been formally recognised as a Community Interest Company will almost certainly qualify not only for inclusion in this Directory but also for our general support. This matter is still under consideration. Comments would be welcome.
(4) For the Venues, those asterisked (*) are not included in the Council listing mentioned in Note 2. Some of them also feature under 'Business'.
