Whatlington
Other achievements include the production of some attractive flyers, designed by Pauline Lyon, both to advertise the Hall generally and for use when advertising a particular event; the establishment of a website by Simon Scarboro, which greatly helps any potential clients; and the establishment of a postcode for the Hall, to help everyone to find it.
The Hall’s finances, having been in a state of some confusion a year ago, are now in much better shape and showing a healthy balance. A resolution was passed to enable the Treasurer, Sally Henderson, to deal with the bank account online, which should greatly facilitate matters. The revenue from bookings has increased substantially this year, and there has been steady interest, which in some cases has resulted in new regular or repeat bookings that are very helpful.

Hide AdForthcoming event: The Hall and/or its surroundings and contents were used for three very successful events last year: a First World War commemorative event in August; the Village Fête in late August and a very popular Christmas Supper in early December. All three were very well attended. We are now planning a late spring event entitled ‘Whatlington Day’, to be held on May 31st. An informal community picnic is suggested, with other entertainments: details will be announced shortly.
