Hat and Boots Restoration Appeal

An incredible £44,000 has been raised locally from community events and donations from individuals. THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us. Our regular fundraising programme will continue until the end of 2024, after which we plan to apply for grants and to reduce the number of events we organise ourselves.

Haddenham Baptist Church has appointed a Surveyor, who visited the building and took samples of Witchert to analyse. A measured survey has taken place, plus a visit from a structural engineer. We’re awaiting the Surveyor’s report, which will give us a better idea of the work that needs to be carried out, in order of priority and potential costings. We will then need to go out to tender, and as building costs have increased they will be considerable. Some of our funds have inevitably already been used to pay for these reports.

In the meantime, there are loads of exciting events to look forward to during the Autumn and Winter. Have a look at the list below. You can find out more and book tickets now on: https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/hbc-hat-boots-restoration…

We have been overwhelmed and hugely encouraged by the support received within the village and we hope to see many of you again at our future events.
