New community centre in Chinley given grants funding boost

An artist's impression of how the planned new community centre will look.

A crowdfunding appeal is set to be launched to help raise the final funding needed for a new community centre for Chinley.  

It comes after the proposed development was given a massive boost after the National Lottery awarded the project £490,000. 

The successful bid by the Parish Council and Community Association means they are closer than ever to securing a much-needed new facility. 

With further funding still needed there are plans for a crowdfunding campaign to launch later in the Spring. A number of other funding bids are being considered and others are in the pipeline. 

The team, who have worked incredibly hard for a long period of time to push the project forward, are looking for people to help organise the campaign, fundraise on their behalf, donate prizes or rewards and to make financial contributions. 

For further information or to let them know how you can help, email Georgina on clerk@chinleybuxworthbrownside-pc.gov.uk or Sam on fundraiser@chinleyca.org.uk 

This Saturday (15 April), a Table Top Sale will be held to raise funds. It is open from 10am to 12.30pm and will include a cake stall as well as new and pre-love goods.
