We are pleased to announce that the Village Hall has undergone a substantial makeover in recent months.
Major improvements have been made to the heating and electrical systems, and in addition the hall has been fully redecorated. The overall result is a really comfortable and fresh environment for our guests and regular users.
The work has been facilitated in part by donations of £1500 from the Derbyshire Dales Better Projects Fund and £100 each from district councillors Steve Flitter, Deborah Botham and Jackie Stevens. We would like to sincerely thank them for their generous contributions.
Jeff Wheatley, president of the Village Hall Committee, said :
“Thanks to the donations we have had, and the hard work of the committee, who are all volunteers, we now have a venue to be proud of.
“The feedback from our regular user groups has been fantastic and we are getting more and more enquiries from new groups wanting to use the venue – although we do still have a few slots free for new groups to join.
“We are also seeing more people hiring the venue in the evening for birthday parties, engagements and weddings as we have a fully licensed bar. I am sure everyone who attends will be impressed with the venue we now have.”
