Borough council’s grant scheme brings community together with Chilbolton Warm Hub Lunch Club.
Test Valley Borough Council’s Cost of Living Grant Scheme has provided much-needed funding to Chilbolton Village Hall, enabling them to launch the Chilbolton Warm Hub Lunch Club. The scheme provided the hall with a £1000 grant to support the weekly community event, which aims to bring residents together in a warm and welcoming environment.
The Chilbolton Warm Hub Lunch Club is open to all residents and provides and great opportunity to socialise and connect with others in the community. The event provides a healthy lunch and refreshments to those attending. Thanks to the grant support, the venue is set to host the weekly activity throughout the rest of 2023.
Chilbolton Parish Councillor Tony Ewer applied for the grant. He said: “It’s been wonderful to see the community come together and enjoy warm food, refreshments and an opportunity to socialise outside of their homes. We hope that this initiative will continue to grow and we look forward to welcoming residents to our next event. Thank you to Test Valley Borough Council for supporting our initiative.”
The cost of living is open to community organisations across Test Valley. To apply for a grant, please visit the council’s website: www.testvalley.gov.uk/costoflivingsupport
