Big congratulations to the villagers of Beedon village hall in West Berkshire whose hall was reopened on Thursday 3 December having had £85,000 spent on refurbishment to bring it up to 21st century standard.
The hall was identified in the Parish Plan as being the most important asset in the village and an intensive 18 month project was launched to raise the funds to refurbish it. New toilets, kitchen, heating and improved main hall have now made the hall a building that the parish can be proud of and will serve the needs of the 400+ people who live in Beedon. The work was carried out by Marshalstone of Headley, near Newbury.
Wendy Dacey, CCB's Community Buildings Adviser, provided advice and guidance on writing successful funding bids and volunteers from Beedon Village Hall attended her 'Funding Workshop'. She said: " I am thrilled to attend the re-opening and would like to congratulate all the volunteers and villagers of Beedon on all their hardwork and fundraising activities."
