Our fundraising has three parts:
1. Local fundraising events and appeal - shown on this page.
2. Charitable grants
3. Statutory grants - county, district and parish councils
What do we propose?
Our 50 year old hall built in memory of those who died in both wars need major work.
Many years of voluntary work and consultation have resulted in a detailed proposal to modernise the existing building. These plans have been submitted for planning permission. The parish council has now recommended these plans for approval.
Proposals include; new heating, insulation, windows and roof. Small extensions at each end, improved storage, a portable stage and cloakrooms as well as providing a meeting room and slightly longer hall.
Our last fundraising events raised:- Plant sale £850
Bull evening £1000
Auction £6500
