Aighton, Bailey and Chaigley Memorial Hall

AGM 18[th] April 2023

Trustees’ Annual Report for year ending Jan 31[st] 2023

The refurbishment of the hall has been made possible by the efforts of the Project team members who have worked tirelessly and diligently to obtain some amazing grant awards and to stir the village in a similar vein. This has resulted in new room ceiling tiles, ground source heating, kitchen improvements, Gents toilet upgrades, Jubilee room new carpets and cupboards, new back stage curtains amongst other smaller upgrades.

The result has seen an improvement in the perception of the hall and additional bookings from far and wide (Wedding celebrations from couples from Darwen, Accrington and Asian Heritage activities from Preston). It is more work for the committee but it has also resulted in greater income AND positive local recognition of the work that has gone into the improvements.

The work does not stop, and there are still plans afoot for further changes.
