Chairman's Welcome
Normandy Village is situated to the north and in the lea of the Hogs Back which is part of the Surrey Hills.
We are fortunate to have excellent road and rail links to London and other major towns and cities.
The village has its own station (Wanborough) with direct links to Guildford (6 minutes away) and Aldershot (10 minutes away). By changing trains at these stations London (Waterloo) is only a further 40 minutes away. Road links are just as good with easy access to the A31 and A3.
Normandy has a rural character with plenty of wildlife, in open fields and woodland even though it is only 4 miles from Guildford. If you like walking, running, cycling or horse riding in the countryside there are many footpaths and bridleways to explore.
There are many clubs and society's within the village covering a wide range of sports and leisure activity's, football, cricket, tennis, bowls, archery, rounders, just to mention a few.
The children are well catered for with an excellent primary school (Wyke) within the village also for their leisure we have play areas with swings, slides and other equipment.
We are a friendly and happy community and as you can see we have much to offer residents and visitors alike.
Welcome to Normandy Village.

Note: May I recommend a fantastic Social Community Website called "NextDoor" which is a great source of communication within Normandy.
Nextdoor is the best way to stay informed about what’s going on in your neighbourhood - whether it’s finding a last-minute babysitter, a lost cat, planning a local event, needing a good, local plumber or sharing safety tips.
There are so many ways our neighbours can help us, we just need an easier way to connect with them.
You can join for free and just need your postcode and email address.

LESLIE CLARKE, 30 MILE CHARITY WALK
You can still donate...see details below
Having recently spent two years having undergoing and surviving a serious operations on my left ankle and following that with a very serious injury to my left lower leg, surviving thus far the Covid 19 pandemic, I have managed , and despite my best efforts, recently managed reached my 86th birthday.
I have decided therefore that I should do something to commemorate all the above and do something for those less fortunate than me.
So, on August Holiday Saturday, 29 August, I am going to do a walk around Normandy Village which has a convenient 3 mile circuit which I intend to walk 10 times making a 30 mile charity walk.
I will be raising funds for two charities close to my heart both which are desperate for more financial support, namely “Combat Stress” , the Services Mental Health charity which is well known and the less well known “Step by Step” a Teenage Homelessness charity which operates in Berkshire, Hampshire and Surrey.
“Step by Step” rescues homeless teenagers, accommodates them, teaches them life skills, helps them to find employment and continues to support them until they are 21.
Each 3 mile circuit of Normandy will take me about an hour so the whole walk will take about 10 hour. So, I will be starting at about 7.00 AM on the 29th August and will, hopefully, complete the walk by 5.00 PM.
If anyone wants to join me for all or any part of the walk or turn out cheer me on you will be more than welcome.
