Hartington Village Hall: we are absolutely delighted to share the news that our ‘Kitchen Disco’ on Saturday raised the fantastic sum of £3864. Our thanks go to Rob, not only one of our Trustees but a great organiser and DJ. Without his leadership we simply could not have held this event. Thanks also to Ian for sourcing a great auction prize and to so very many villagers who contributed in various ways behind the scenes and, of course, those attended on the night. Refurbishment of the kitchen will start on Sunday 2nd July with volunteers stripping out the kitchen ready for the contractor to start the next day.
