Village Hall Concerns

LIKE many, I am sure, I was extremely shocked to learn of the dire financial straits of the village hall. It seems bizarre that a community that is awash with 4 x 4s, professional people and affluent homeowners cannot support this vital asset.

Can I suggest that every household in Culter contributes a minimum" of £2, the price of a Cappuccino, to the hall's funds. This would be entirely voluntary ...no administrations costs incurred... but would be repeated every year.

Given the response the Culter in Bloom group appear to have been given, just far the asking, it is obvious that there is a common, but latent, will to enhance our surroundings. Most people will agree that it is essential that the hall exists as a focus for our groups and meetings and for our children to play together.

It must be supported.
