We want to share with you our exciting new initiat We want to share with you our exciting new initiative to help with fundraising for our new hall building. With Spring arriving and better weather on its way, we will soon be enjoying more opportunities for outdoor exercise. Plans for our new community hall are coming together and we need to start our fundraising in earnest to bring those plans to life.

Our new initiative, entitled Walk the Walk, asks you to consider donating £1 each time you take your choice of exercise, whether that be a stroll around the lake, popping out for a newspaper or delivering groceries to a house bound neighbour. It’s that simple.

All our best endeavours will help ensure that, when the pandemic restrictions are behind us, we will have contributed to the building of a great new space where we can meet up again.
