Could you be part of it?

Our next Management Committee meeting is on Wednesday 9 September at 6.30pm, and everyone is welcome.

The Hall is thriving, with more happening than ever, but it only works because local people give their time to make things happen.

As we look towards another year, we’d love more people to get involved – whether that’s occasionally helping at an event, supporting one of our activities, or perhaps becoming part of the team that helps run the Hall.

Coming to the meeting doesn’t commit you to anything. Come along, hear what’s happening, share your ideas and find out whether there’s something you’d enjoy being part of.

 

🏠 Our New Roof Project

Our much-needed roof replacement and insulation project is nearing completion, helping to secure the future of our Village Hall for many years to come.

The Hall remains OPEN as usual while the final works are completed.

A huge thank you to everyone for bearing with us during the works – and to all those who have helped make this major investment in our Hall possible.

About us, at the Hall

The Lockerley and East Dean War Memorial Hall – to use its full name – was built in the early 1900s.  The land was donated to the villages of Lockerley and East Dean by Frederick Dalgety.  The building has been extended significantly over the years and in the late 1990s a separate wing was added to house our Children and Young People activities.

As a Memorial Hall, the building carries two plaques which commemorate events in the two world wars that took place in the 1900s.  One plaque to the side of the Coffee Shop Annex, notes those of the village who fell in the first world war – aka ‘The Great War’.  A simple stone paviar, set into the ground of the entrance to the hall, commemorates the Victoria Cross of Frederick Luke. 

 

A little bit of important additional information …

A public access defibrillator is installed under the entrance porch;
instructions for its use are found on the front panel of the defibrillator.  The defibrillator, whilst housed at the Hall, is under the care and maintenance of Lockerley Parish Council.  For any questions or concerns please contact clerk@lockerley-pc.gov.uk
