Withern Village Hall was awarded £16,500 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 the village hall.
The vision of the village hall is to promote equality and diversity and be inclusive, 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.
The plan is to increase events, and include tea dances, music events and due to the larger footprint of the new building, the school will be able to hold events there as their building does not have any inside communal space.
