Project Summary

We would like to purchase equipment for local families to enjoy the benefit of at Kilmory Hall. In recent months our younger members have been enjoying our space to play pool, listen to music and enjoy the space with their siblings, friends, parents and grandparents. As they become more isolated in a rural area in the winter months it would be great to update the equipment and give them a space to enjoy together.

Project Description

Our project is to provide a welcoming space for local children and families to enjoy throughout the year but particulary during the bleaker winter months when isolation is a problem in rural areas. The current pool table has been damaged by the old pool cues. The wall surrounding the dart board does not have any protection and has many small dart sized holes in it. We hope to recloth our pool table, purchase new pool cues and other necessary items for playing pool and keeping the area tidy. Purchase a Bluetooth speaker to enjoy their own music in each hall, new darts for our dart baord and all the necessary items required for this. For our larger hall, the equipment to enjoy pickle ball and badminton. The halls are used by various groups for different activities, it would be nice to tidy up the spaces for all that use them, while our pool table and dart board can remain out looking neat and tidy while our knitting group or coffee morning team are using the space they are not sitting with damaged walls and pool cues lying out, we are limited for space to keep the place tidy for all.

Location: We are very rural at the bottom of the island. Particularly in the winter darker months it can be very isolating, more so for families who are not able to be out in the dark. There is very little for them to do in our area. This will provide a social aspect and a change of scenery. Our halls are used by the full community for many different reasons it would be good to upgrade this part to include more people into the hall community.

Proposed on behalf of: Our organisation is Kilmory Public Hall, we are run by a board of Directors voted for by the community.
