The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
The upkeep of a Victorian building in Gosberton has been given a boost thanks to a donation from a local business.
Bakkavor has given a much-needed financial donation to Gosberton Public Hall, one of the area’s historic Victorian buildings.
The 146-year-old building is managed by a small group of trustees, and is well used by the local community for social, education and leisure activities.
The Trustees reached out to Spalding-based Bakkavor to ask for financial support to help sustain the building as it needs a number of renovations and repairs.
Employees from Bakkavor’s Staff Shop Committee presented the trustees of the hall with a cheque for £300.
Rona Perry, treasurer and trustee of the hall, said: “We can’t thank Bakkavor enough for this donation as it will help us with our goal of installing a stair lift in the building.
“The hall is a great meeting place and we want to it to remain at the heart of the local community for many years to come.”
