We are very pleased to report that during August our toilet facilities are to be updated and significantly improved. We are making big improvements to heating and insulation to that part of the hall and also creating an additional cubicle in the ladies. We feel this will add much improved facilities to what is a thriving and very busy community resource. We are extremely grateful for a grant that has been awarded to us from Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority Sustainable Development Fund towards the costs of these works.
