Over the next few months, we’ll be highlighting some of the local projects supported by Parish Council grants and the difference they make to our community.
First up: Holme Village Community Centre, where volunteers have been renovating the building to bring more space into use for the village and wider valley.
A £5,000 grant from Holme Valley Parish Council helped replace unsafe, uneven flooring upstairs. Alongside a stair lift and accessible toilet, the new floor helped prepare the space for community use.
The centre described it as “the final stage in getting the building ready for community use”.
Plans include arts, crafts, talks and performances — opportunities to meet, learn and build friendships closer to home.
