WANT TO ATTEND A NEW YOGA, PILATES OR ZUMBA CLASS ON YOUR DOORSTEP?
~
KEEN TO MEET FRIENDS IN A LOCAL AND ATTRACTIVE SETTING?
Well from April next year, you will be able to do all these things in the beautiful, new, contemporary Chearsley Village Hall!
Work is due to start this July and will finish in March next year. The total cost of the new Village Hall is approximately £540,000 and the Village Hall Fundraising Committee has done a fantastic job so far. We are very grateful to all those in the village who have attended our events, organised coffee mornings, read our fundraising applications, appeared in our calendar and provided technical support and help.
However, we have £60,000 left to raise in order to ensure that the new hall will get built and provide many more services and activities for our village. So what is our fundraising plan?
Further grants have been applied for but we also need your help. We need to raise £20,000 by the end of May from the village and we are very grateful to the Vickers and Heybrook families who together have agreed to match every pound donated (with a ceiling of £25,000). In this way, we could raise over £40,000.
Your donations will help to purchase vital equipment for the new hall e.g. hearing loop (£1,500), new toilets (£240 each), a disabled wash basin (£300), hand driers (£240 each) a new loft ladder (£250), new flooring (£10,000) and equipment for the new kitchen.
The names of all donors will be recognised in our Giving Tree which will be permanently placed inside the front entrance of the new hall (we will be in separate contact with all donors about this). It will be beautifully designed by Clare McCormick – new Chearsley resident and art teacher at The Mandeville School.
