Can you help our Fundraising Appeal? As many of you will know, we are very fortunate to have been awarded £100,000 from The National Lottery Community Fund towards the refurbishment of the Clarence Hall. Although this is tremendous news, we are now seeking community support to raise the remaining £45,000 needed to deliver the priorities identified by the Community Survey undertaken last year. These include installing a new and upgraded kitchen, new toilet facilities, a new disability access toilet incorporating a baby changing area, a small bar and an accessible entrance into the hall with ramped access from the A40 and car park. We very much hope that you will be able to help us! There are several ways to contribute. Either donate online via JustGiving - https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/ clarencehall or contact us on clarencehallcomms@gmail.com if you would rather pay by bank transfer.
Jamie Smith’s Mabon Jamie Smith’s Mabon returned to the Clarence Hall on 23 October. We were fortunate to be included as a venue in their ‘Last Huzzah Tour’ and they didn’t disappoint. An outstanding performance from this renowned Welsh folk band! The event was a sell-out, raising much-needed funds for the Hall’s refurbishment.
