The purpose of Mortimer Village Partnership (MVP) is to involve people and groups in the life of the village, to improve communications, to connect people together and facilitate activities and events in order to enhance the lives of those who live and work in Mortimer and nearby.

Formed from the merger of Mortimer West End Cricket Club (MWECC) and Mortimer Cricket Club (MCC), 2025 will see both heritage clubs’ home grounds being used, and we have the distinction of being one club with two home grounds in separate counties.

We expect to compete with three Saturday league teams, in the Thames Valley League (TVL), The 1 st XI in Division 5, 2nd XI in Division 8 and 3rd XI, which will be a development team, in Division 9. Our Sunday friendly side will continue with a full fixture list. We will provide members the opportunity to play cricket at a suitable level to match their needs and aim to provide a clear pathway for junior members to progress into adult cricket.

We will continue to provide coaching to children from the age of 5-15 and are engaging with local secondary schools to help provide indoor winter cricket opportunities. Our own indoor nets will begin in February, at Theale Green School and anyone interested in coming along should contact any member of the committee via our new website

If you’re looking for somewhere to hold your party, meeting or a series of classes, Mortimer West End Village Hall could be the ideal venue. The flexible layout, with its spacious entry hall, large hall (6m x 9m) and small hall (6m x 3m) lends itself to many purposes. The kitchen is fully equipped and there are plenty of tables and chairs available to use. Fast and efficient heating makes it warm and cosy. The hall is also just 15 minutes from Junction 11 of the M4 and 20 minutes from Junction 6 of the M3 and has parking for about 20 cars. There is a recreation ground and children's playground across the road, and footpaths through the woodlands behind.  The small hall can be hired for as little as £3.50 per hour during the day.

A small local charity, our aim is to help residents of Stratfield Mortimer who may be in need of extra support. We do this by using the rent we receive from the Fairground to make donations to local organisations that provide help to those in need.

The Stratfield Mortimer Fairground Charity owns the Fairground, which is to be used as a public recreation ground and events space for the village. The Parish Council lease the Fairground from the Charity, and do an excellent job of operating it in accordance with this purpose, managing and enhancing this valuable facility for the benefit of all.
