Mount Vernon Community Hall Improvements
The Hall turned 50 years old in October 2021!
We have applied for funding to help achieve our goals.
If successful we will be able to move closer to transforming our hall making it fit
for the next 50 years for the community to use and enjoy!
The Management Committee
​
The existing committee consists of volunteers who all contribute in their own way to the success of the hall and driving the future hall improvements.
​
Our ambition is for our hall to continue to be one of the best halls in the community for many years to come.
​
The Community is at the heart of everything we do.
Hall Improvements
​
The hall is in need of constant upkeep as it is well used and loved within the community.
​
Our Volunteers work hard to keep standards in the hall.
​
They often complete all of our odd jobs as well as skilled jobs in their own time to keep our costs low.
​
Where we have to get outside contractors in we try to source companies locally.
​
Our Volunteers raise money through Community Events, party and hall lets as well as looking for funding opportunities.
