Lands Village Hall Trust would like to extend their thanks to ITEC North East for offering to print our June 2020 newsletter.
We are delivering the printed newsletter to homes in High Lands, Low Lands, Lands Road and Morley.
Our newsletter offers an opportunity to introduce the new Trustees and team responsible for the village hall; give details of the various ways you can contact us; and give a brief update on what’s been happening.
Lands Village Hall was built in the 1890s for the local miners. It started life as a reading room for the miners and later became the village’s schoolroom.
On 7 June 1940, a group of five local men bought the property and land from Henry Stobart and Company Limited for fifty pounds and constituted the Institution, enabling the building to be used in trust by the community.
In October 1965, the Institution was converted to a registered charity and became Lands Village Hall Association.
Lands Village Hall Trust believes in equality and diversity, and welcomes everyone through its doors. It is supported by Durham County Council and the local community.
We welcome the support of the local community and people from further afield. If you wish to support or contribute, please get in touch with us.
