At long long last we have completed the 10 year programme of improvements to the Hall and at a recent Joint Meeting of Trustees, Committee Members and Stakeholders we celebrated the event with a look back over the years to revisit our achievements.

Pat Fitzgerald told us that over the three phases of works the Pannal Village Hall have raised £724,000 to invest in our facilities, with headline achievements as follows:

• All led by volunteers
• Now have 5 rooms to let instead of one
• Building is in good order and well insulated.
• New level access Toilet Block and better storage.
• Reduced running costs and lower energy use.
• Good revenue income to secure the Village Hall for the future.

The icing on the cake has been the completion of our now permanent War Memorial area under the cherry trees with the Tommies and Poppies that have subtle nighttime illumination, plus the newly paved seating area with sponsored seats by local donors.

We’d like to express our huge thanks to all those who have supported us over the years and especially to those who gave us grant funding so generously and had confidence in us to deliver on the long list of improvements for this great community facility.
