MINUTES FROM RECENT COMMITTEE MEETINGS
CORFE CAFE DATES – 2025
SOLAR PANEL FUNDING
Corfe Village Hall is delighted to announce that it has recently been awarded approximately £5,000 of National Lottery funding for a solar panel installation at the village hall. The new funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, which distributes money raised by National Lottery players for good causes and is the largest community funder in the UK, will enable the hall to reduce its dependency on electricity. The project will be taking place during 2025.
The National Lottery Community Fund recently launched its strategy, ‘It starts with community’, which will underpin its efforts to distribute at least £4 billion of National Lottery funding by 2030. As part of this, the funder has four key missions, which are to support communities to come together, be environmentally sustainable, help children and young people thrive and enable people to live healthier lives. National Lottery players raise over £30 million a week for good causes across the UK. Thanks to them, last year (2023/24) The National Lottery Community Fund awarded over half a billion pounds (£686.3 million) of life-changing funding to communities across the UK, supporting over 13,700 projects to turn their great ideas into reality.
