The next stage of our project to update and improve the hall facilities will take place on Wednesday 8th May when Hadleigh Glass will be installing new uPVC double glazed windows in place of the existing single glazed wooden framed versions. This work is costing £14,500. The toilet windows will be replaced at a later date when a revised layout to incorporate a wheelchair accessible facility has been agreed - a proposed layout is available for viewing and comment on the noticeboards in both the church and hall foyers. As well as updating the toilet facilities, and subject to the availability of funding, other planned works include refurbishing and refitting the kitchen, modernising the heating arrangements and renovating the floor. In January the parish received a grant of £6,950 from the Benefact Trust to put towards hall improvements, further grants are being sought and the aim is to finance as much of the work as possible from grants, hall rental income and proceeds from social activities. Please speak to any member of the Finance Committee if you would like further information or would like to contribute to this project in any way.
