Dear Garvald Resident,
As I am sure you are aware, Garvald residents are incredibly lucky to have a spectacular Village Hall at the centre of our community. The hall is much loved by us all and regularly used by many.
Sadly over the last few years the financial situation of the hall has become more perilous: heating costs have escalated, wedding bookings have become fewer and maintenance issues have increased. Despite best efforts of the current and previous committees, running the hall with the level of bookings we currently have is not financially viable over the longer term. As such we are working on a number of fund raising ideas to ensure the hall remains available to us all for many years to come.
Part of this current initiative is to ask each Garvald resident if they would like to become a long term ‘Friend of the Hall’ by setting up a monthly donation. The suggested amount is £5 per month; however, any amount would be greatly appreciated. There is absolutely no obligation to become a friend of the hall but it is hoped that many of the residents will be able to donate a little every month to allow the hall to have a regular income stream.
If you would like to join this initiative, please complete the contact form, below, to receive details of how to set up your payment.
Should anyone wish to discuss this further, please speak to either Gary McGregor (Chair) or Tom Edmonds (Treasurer). They can be contacted via the contact form, too.
Many thanks,
Garvald Village Hall Committee
