Ros Hammond (Squire) handing cheque for £400 to Sue Collins (Chair of BCS) with members of Rumburgh Morris and BCS

On Tuesday evenings throughout the summer months, you might come across Rumburgh Morris dancers and musicians at a pub near you, performing our repertoire of traditional morris dances originally collected from villages in the Cotswolds in the early 1900s.

Money we raise from our audience collections is specifically ring-fenced to support local charities. Last year, thanks to the generosity of our audiences, we were able to help Halesworth Dementia Carers’ Fund with a donation of £1000. This year we are delighted to support two equally worthy causes, Emmaus Ditchingham, and Bungay Community Support, with donations of £400 to each.

Rumburgh Morris was formed in 2008 and currently has a strong membership of male and female dancers and musicians ranging in age from 14 to 80 years. New members are welcomed at the beginning of each practice season every September. We practice in St Margaret South Elmham Village Hall on Tuesday evenings from September through to April, and our dance season commences with our St George’s Day performance at The Rumburgh Buck on 23rd April and continues through to early September.
