We have launched a new fundraising appeal to upgrade and future-proof the Hall
Thanks to the amazing generosity of the people of Arnside and beyond, we have been able to complete phase one of the urgent
works needed on the Hall roof. We are now watertight.
All the support we have received is very much appreciated by the Hall Trustees.
We now need to raise funds to start the next phase of works strongly advised by a recent Condition and Greening report.
Project Objectives
- Cut energy costs by minimising heat escape through doors and windows.
- Enhance the comfort and usability of the Hall for the community.
- Reduce the building’s carbon footprint, aligning with sustainability goals.
- Preserve and respect the Hall’s heritage while implementing modern solutions.
This will be achieved by upgrading insulation in the ceiling, installing internal insulation, and replacing badly fitting external and internal doors. To reduce heat loss through windows, thermal blinds will be installed.
The lighting also needs to be upgraded.
The overall costs of these improvements is estimated at £35,000 to £40,000.
So, we are now seeking funding to implement the proposed measures, to ensure the Hall becomes a more energy-efficient and sustainable space. The improvements will not only reduce operating costs but also the environmental impact.
With your help and support, we can ensure the Hall continues to be a vital community hub for the people of Arnside – meeting today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges – a sustainable space for generations to come.
