Maintenance & Improvements

Can someone please look at the telephone box/library? The door catch is broken and the door won't open because of this.

Asked by: Dee Facey

Thank you for your message Dee — we completely agree the telephone box library is a lovely feature of the village and deserves some care. Responsibility for the box sits with the Parish Council, and we're pleased to say they're already looking into the broken door and planning a little restoration work. It will be getting some much-needed love and attention very soon!

You are all doing a great job, keep up the good work. The village hall does need modernising and brought up to standard regards climate change.

The village hall could be used to raise funds for charities, e.g. bake sale, craft stall. The village hall could be hired and paid for out of the proceeds made, for example raising funds for Yorkshire Swan and Wildlife Rescue Hospital, the remaining monies go to the charity.

Thank you for your suggestion — it's always great to see ideas for supporting good causes. As the Village Hall is itself a registered charity, we're unable to directly raise funds for other charities under the terms of our constitution. However, individuals or groups are very welcome to hire the hall independently to host fundraising events, with proceeds going to charities of their choice. It's a great way to bring people together while supporting causes that matter to our community.

I love this village hall. Pop in regular! Thank you all x
