This post lists the sponsorship opportunities offered by the Trust. The Trust offers sponsorship rights aligned with our How Sponsorship Works page. Consequently, we regularly update this list with new assets. Also, we update taken assets on this list.
You can make an offer for an asset or register your interest in an asset. Just give your offer details in the form at the end of the page, under “Make an offer or register an interest”. When you submit your offer, include the reference given in the table.
If you can see better value from an opportunity than is available from the current configuration, we welcome counter–offers. This is because we believe sponsorship is a partnership where we have to work together for mutual benefit. We are flexible with our sponsorship deals and will assess the value of the asset compared with the value you offer for the asset.
If none of the sponsorship rights are suitable, please consider another form of donation. Find further information on our how to donate page.

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.
