£25,000
LEGACY FROM MRS BERYL
UPRICHARD |
Local resident Beryl
Uprichard has left £25,000 in her will to Tansley
Village Hall. The Village Hall Committee was informed of
the legacy in a solicitor's letter.
Beryl, who died on 4th July
2009, aged 85, used to live at 'Rotherwood' on the
Nottingham Road before moving into the Ivonbrook Nursing
and Residential Care Home in Darley Bridge when she
became ill with lung problems. Beryl had no children and
no surviving relatives in the UK. She was aware of
the financial needs of the Village Hall, and also left
legacies to other bodies. She and her husband formerly
owned the Matlock Mercury. They moved to this area in
1975.
The Village Hall Committee is extremely grateful
for this tremendously generous gesture by Mrs
Uprichard.

with sketchbook and sculptures |

Thank you to Riber resident
Eddie Hallam who made a very interesting presentation
about wildlife sculpture in aid of village hall
funds.
Turnout for the presentation
on 27th November was small, but Eddie's talk and display
were greatly appreciated by those present. The talk was
full of humour and anecdotes which kept the audience
thoroughly engaged, and the slides of St Kilda were
fascinating. It was interesting to see a selection of
Eddie's sculptures (birds and an otter) and learn
how they are made.
A total of £36 was raised for
the Village Hall Restoration Fund.
Thank you to Jean Peters for
providing the refreshments.

MAMMA MIA NIGHT
RAISES £166 FOR RESTORATION
FUND |
|
 |
The Greek-themed
Mamma Mia evening in the Village Hall on 21st May
was a great success. Around 40 people attended,
and the mood was lively and sociable. In the
“Tansley Taverna” set up in the kitchen, guests
were offered Greek salad and garlic bread and were
able to buy wine, beer and soft drinks. Greek
music in the background had some people dancing
around the tables even before the film began! Once
the film did start, the audience had a good
sing-along to the old Abba favourites, and by the
time the credits were rolling, some individuals
were dancing in the aisles to enthusiastic
applause from others. The evening ended with
a raffle featuring an attractive array of
Mediterranean-style prizes.
The event, organised by Tansley
Film Club Committee, raised £166 for the
Village Hall Restoration Fund.

Val Neville and Agnes Slack, and a bring & buy stall
with cakes, books and lots of those things you didn't
know you needed until you saw them, run by Sue Spink and
her granddaughter Anna (wonderful to see her). Thanks
also to Marjorie Ramwell for her help in organising the
event.
Doors opened at 10.30am and
soon the hall was full of people, chatter and
laughter Excellent coffee and delicious hot
cross buns were served by members of the
Ladies Group. It was good to see a lot of
youngsters who had come along with their mums and
grandparents to enjoy the morning. Amazingly, each
child won a raffle prize!

COULD
YOU ORGANISE A FUNDRAISING
EVENT?
Could
you organise a fundraising event? We need as many people
as possible to get involved in the village hall
fundraising project.
If you have a passion, a skill, a talent or
an expertise, then please consider whether you are able
to initiate or run an activity or an event yourself. We
can help you publicise it.
If you can't organise a project yourself, you
could still help others with their projects.
There have been some very successful
fundraising events in the hall recently, including a
medieval banquet and a quiz night. These events
would never have taken place without the dedication of
volunteers.
Members of the village hall committee,
themselves volunteers, invite others to join them in
raising money for this valuable community facility.
Our aim is to hold at least one major event a
month, but we shall need your help if we are to achieve
this goal.
If you have an idea or wish to help in any
way, please
phone Chris Knightley on 01629 584243 or
e-mail: tansleyvillagehallsecretary@googlemail.com |
