Bawdeswell Activities Group (BAG)
The activities group, as part of Project Bawdeswell, was created in 2007 and then became a sub-group of the Village Hall Committee. Initially it ran a program of activities for children during the summer holidays and then commenced to arrange activities for the rest of the community. Recent adult activities include Bridge courses for beginners and Table Tennis/Games evenings. The group has provided activities for children during all school holidays and half terms (except at Christmas) since it was started and relies on a small but dedicated band of volunteers. Initial funding came from the Parish Council, Breckland Council and Norfolk Community Foundation plus their own fundraising. Through continued fundraising and generous donations, most of the activities for children, including materials, are provided free of charge.
A set of cricket nets was provided on the recreation ground in 2008 and a second bay extension was constructed in May 2009 thanks to a most generous donation from a local resident.

Famous quotes containing the words activities and/or group:
“...I have never known a “movement” in the theater that did not work direct and serious harm. Indeed, I have sometimes felt that the very people associated with various “uplifting” activities in the theater are people who are astoundingly lacking in idealism.”
—Minnie Maddern Fiske (1865–1932)
“I can’t think of a single supposedly Black issue that hasn’t wasted the original Black target group and then spread like the measles to outlying white experience.”
—June Jordan (b. 1936)
