Craigievar Community and Hall Association became a SCIO in May 2015 whose trustees are appointed by election following proposal. The Trustees meet quarterly and all are welcome at these meetings. The charity has no connection with any other charities.
The organisation’s purposes are:
-
To promote the quality of life of the inhabitants of Craigievar and environs by promoting social, cultural, recreational and educational activities: while such activities shall be primarily for the benefit of residents they shall be open to those living outside the area.
-
To manage the Craigievar Hall in furtherance of the above object and to maintain and improve the hall and its contents and the ground associated with the hall for the benefits of users, without distinction of age, gender, sexuality or political, religious or other opinions.
-
Advance citizenship and community development by bringing the residents of Craigievar and environs together with a wide variety of community events within the hall.
The Charity’s main activity is to provide a venue to serve this scattered rural local community and in order to do this, fundraising activities and hall rental provide income to sustain the hall. The hall acts as a hub to bring people together local people of all ages and help to reduce isolation is an important role in this area.
Fundraising activities include, BBQs, Ceilidhs, Afternoon teas, quiz nights, Producers markets and Craft Fairs. These may be help in association and with the help of volunteers from the local primary school PTA in return for a share of the proceeds.
The Hall also has regular users which serve the local community and the most popular of these is the Choir and exercise class both held once a week.
Other income is generated by letting the hall to local residents for parties and events. Local clubs and societies such as the Young Farmers also hire the hall for their own fundraising events usually in the form of a ceilidh or disco.
Private individuals book the hall for birthday parties, funeral teas and weddings.
