Garrigill Village Hall

You may have heard that something important is happening on Friday 29th April.

Open the attachments to read about

the afternoon Tea Party on the Village Green and
the Auction of Promises in the George and Dragon in the evening.
There may be another event outside Garrigill but the eyes of the world’s press will no doubt be on our activities!

Do come along to meet friends and to support fund raising for the Village Hall Refurbishment.

Village Hall

To date, we have obtained grants worth £20,000, and in addition we have decided to spend £25,000 of village money, to enable work to start this Summer. This leaves us with very little in reserve but the money has been raised just for this purpose and we know that everyone is keen for the hall to be upgraded.

You will see activity around the hall as estimates are obtained and a programme of improvements commences. This expenditure gives us a good start, but we need to raise more money through fund raising and grant applications. Everyone will be aware that grant money is not easy to obtain in these difficult times.

Therefore we also need people to volunteer their time to help with specific tasks, as there is a lot of work to be done with limited resources. Even a couple of hours will make a difference. If you have a specific skill, even better. We will post requests for help with specific tasks as the programme of work evolves, and you may be approached directly by committee members as we progress. Please give whatever help you can to make the hall a meeting place we can be proud to use.

HOPE TO SEE YOU ON FRIDAY 29TH APRIL.
