Withern Village Hall was awarded £16,500 in March 2024 to fund detailed architect’s drawings and costs associated with planning permission, building regulations and ground survey, with the aim of an ultimate rebuild of Withern Village Hall.
The vision of the Village Hall would be to promote equality and diversity and be as inclusive as possible, addressing issues of rural isolation and deprivation. The wish is to improve the Village Hall, conserving connections between neighbouring communities to enhance community wellbeing and increase social activities. It will mean there will be an increase in events, to include tea dances, music events and because of the larger footprint of the new building, the village school will be able to hold events there as their building does not have any inside communal space.
