Forest Row Village Hall has been shortlisted for the East Grinstead Courier and Observer
Heart of the Community awards. Now we need your support to help the
hall be the recipient of £2000 towards a new boiler. It will help make our
hall a more comfortable place for all the community.
To help us do this, you need to get as many copies of the newspaper as
you can this week (issue dated 23 April) and the next two weeks (1 and 8 May) and vote for project L07 Forest Row Village Hall.
You
can collect as many of the voting coupons as you like; the more the
better. All coupons must be submitted by 18 May. Please pass this
information on to your friends as well and
we can all do our bit to improve the village hall.
Forest Row Village Hall was built in 1892 and is a registered
charity run by trustees. It does not receive any local authority
funding, and relies on hiring revenue and fundraising by volunteers for
income. Located in the heart of the village, it hosts a wide range of
community events throughout the year. The existing boiler was installed
in the 1970s, and is unreliable and very inefficient. As part of the
ongoing plan to enhance and improve the hall facilities, the management
committee want to replace the boiler with a new and more
energy-efficient system.
