Funding and Sponsors

A huge Thank You

goes to our donors and grant providers, large and small, who have given money to the hall over the years, without whose kind generosity the hall and recreation ground would not be what it is today. The Village Hall and the Recreation Ground are expensive facilities to run and to maintain. The Trustees try to keep hire fees as low as is practicable so that the majority of the Community can make use of the facilities. It does mean, though, that major maintenance and capital expenditure projects are difficult to fund from hall income alone and we rely on outside donations and grants, such as these, to help us.
