Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Market hall is a great asset to the village giving access to many groups for all sorts of activities.

I have been running our dance classes in the market hall for many years, because the hall has great facilities, but most of all has a lovely welcoming atmosphere.  It's especially great for our regular tea dances, which we can't wait to start again.

We thank all of the Hall Trustees that give up their time to ensure the hall is well kept and is available for the long term future.

Unlike many local halls this one is a charity and therefore relies on us using the facilities and the income that brings.  Whilst we are unable to use the facilities my friend and I have decided to walk instead.  

We plan to walk the equivalent of 4 MARATHONS over the month of April to raise some funds for the hall.  Any donations are very welcome and we look forward to Starting on the 1st April and sharing our progress.

Thank you

Lorraine (Botley Swing Dance)

About the charity

Botley Market Hall

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1158635
We are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, consisting entirely of local volunteers. We own, and are responsible for the care and management of our village hall, known as the Botley Market Hall. This is a beautiful Grade II listed building, which dates from 1848 and is the proud, and much-loved, centrepiece of the village square. The Hall provides three meeting rooms, with associated facilities and is maintained to very high standards by the efforts of the Trustees and volunteers. The rooms can be hired by anyone in Botley or the wider community and a large number of local groups and organisations meet there regularly. This means that provision is made for many of the social, recreational, leisure, educational and welfare needs of the community. It is particularly popular for family occasions. Our volunteers spend much time and effort to ensure that the Hall is kept in top order so that it can fulfil its purpose of giving support to our community. However, the Hall receives no outside funding so we rely entirely on the events we organise and the income from our many users to cover the not inconsiderable costs of running and maintaining the building and its environs, now and into the future.
