Recent Issues and decisions taken by the Committee

New car park – decision not to go ahead

Atkinsons no longer intend to build the planned footbridge to connect the proposed new car park to the village hall and so the Committee has decided that we can no longer go ahead with this project. As Trustees, we do not believe that it is appropriate to take responsibility for ground that is not directly connected to the Village Hall. We are aware that car parking in Stainton can be difficult and we are disappointed not to be able to help alleviate the problem.

Upgrading the Hall

The Hall has been redecorated in similar colours, and we are adding more sound proofing to support hearing quality in both the main room and the committee room. The Hall will reopen as normal from Saturday 8th August.

Events

  • The next Maker’s Market is on Saturday 19th September.
  • The Cinema Club will start again monthly in October to March on the first Friday of each month.
  • Our AGM will take place on Sunday 18th October at 14:00 – you are invited to attend to hear more about last year and plans for the future.
  • Highlights Rural Touring Scheme will bring a children’s show, Animals!, to the Village Hall on Saturday 7th November.
