We’ve been a little quiet lately, but we’ve decided to focus on the hall over the summer months while planning an exciting programme of events for the autumn and winter.
That said, we certainly haven’t been sitting back and doing nothing! This weekend, members of the committee spent time painting and carrying out general repairs both inside and outside the hall.
We’ve also been busy preparing grant applications. One application is for funding to help us restart our former—and very popular—Senior Lunches. The second has been submitted to Canterbury City Council to help fund the launch of a weekly badminton club at the hall. Please keep your fingers crossed for us, and we’ll share updates as soon as we have news.
In addition, we’ve replaced 30 of our chairs with new cushioned ones to make the hall more comfortable for our users. Our fabulous gardening team has also been hard at work, and the gardens are looking absolutely wonderful as we head into the summer.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support the hall—we’re looking forward to sharing more with you soon
