Thornaby Town Hall was built in 1890 by the people of Thornaby. Over the years due to political change and neglect it became a sad forgotten building that needs full restoration. Thornaby Town Council now own the freehold to the building and with the support of a Heritage Lottery grant are fully refurbishing the building to create a community hub for the people of Thornaby. Thornaby Town Council needs to raise money from the local community and business as their financial contribution to the project. This appeal is towards the cost of a lift to give access to all to the grand civic suite located on the first floor.
