Campton & Chicksands


 

TheVillage Hall

 

The Campton Village Hall Management Committee is elected each year and has a committee of approx 8 members. The function of the committee is to raise money for the upkeep, maintenance and improvement of the Hall..

The Hall was built sometime during the 1800's and sold to the Church by the Osborne family of Chicksands on the 7th July 1873 when it was used as the Village School until 17th June 1936. It was then used as the Sunday School for a number of years. It was then sold to the PCC for £140 on the 3rd July 1959.

By 1970 it had fallen into a state of dis-repair and was then leased to the Paris Council for £1.00 per year on the understanding that it would be re-furbished and managed by an appointed committee. At the same time it was registered as a charity.

The hall was the last thatched Village Hall in Bedfordshire but the time came for the roof to be re-thatched and the decision was taken to replace the roof with tiles. A number of fund raising events took place in the village and a total of £18000 was raised to pay for the new roof in 1992. The hall was also extended and toilets and a meeting room added in 1976. The latest addition is Gas Fired Hot Water Radiator Central Heating which was installed in 2002, this was achieved through local fund raising and from Grants provided by the South East Beds Community Liaison Forum.

The Hall is used by a number of village groups. Pre school group 3 days a week, Women's Institute, Bowls Club, Yoga Classes, Mothers and Toddlers group one morning a week, Parish Council, All Saints' Church, Children's Parties, Wedding Parties and Birthday Parties.

Grants have been acquired from the following: Bedfordshire County Council, Bedfordshire Liaison Forum & Mid Beds Grant Aid.

The Campton Village Hall Management Committee would like to thank all those people that have supported us over the last year.  Apart from the periodic maintenance during the year we have replaced the curtains and rails, new lighting has been installed in the main hall, both of these items have made the hall a cosier place to meet and of course the new heating system was a great benefit to all users last winter and during the recent cold spell has been very successful.

The 100 club will have paid out nearly £1500 in prize money this year and committee members will be visiting you during January to renew your subscriptions.  Don't forget that if you wish to acquire additional numbers for the draw we will be happy to oblige.  Good luck for the 2006 season.

The total payout for 2006 will be £1480.

We would like to wish you all a very happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
