The rear hall at Trevone is badly in need of replacing it is damp and does not serve the community well. We would like to rebuild it so we can offer a greater range of activities to benefit our local community.

Story

The rear hall is in a very bad state of repair and plans have been put in place for a new hall to be built to replace the old damp Nissen hut. Trevone needs a new rear hall to serve the needs of the community, at present it is under used as it is cold damp and mouldy, not conducive to many activities. COVID has highlighted how important community is and the hall were able to support our residents through the lockdown but we would love to have a new exciting space to use and expand our activities. The plans have been drawn and we need £190,000 to complete the works. We have managed to raise over £130,000 in spite of closure due to COVID but we need more funds to be able to start the building work.

About the charity

Since the 1970’s there has been a village hall committee who meet regularly and work hard to arrange many events and activities to bring the local community together. The very popular and well-attended activities include regular coffee mornings, a book group, a sewing group, youth and toddler groups, Canaster, play reading, painting, table tennis, short mat bowls, bacon roll mornings, quiz nights and a number of 'whole community' events, usually involving food. The hall is also regularly used by groups raising money for their various charities. Small businesses hire the hall for meetings, such as the surf school. It is used as a polling station during elections and hired for private functions and for general use by the community. In the past 10 years, after a number of initiatives, the hall has become a registered charity and the front hall has undergone complete refurbishment. The rear hall, initially built as a temporary war shelter, is in a very bad state of repair and urgently needs replacing. After much thought, discussion and advice, we have developed a simple, economical design for the new hall providing a comfortable, flexible space for larger groups including audio-visual equipment, a separate kitchen area, facilities for the disabled and plenty of storage space. Our aim is to provide a large hall to complement our smaller refurbished front hall that is a comfortable and welcoming. We want to create a hub for our community and future generations.
