Can You Help?
Pickering Memorial Hall is is managed for the benefit of the people of Pickering by volunteers who are the trustees of Pickering War Memorial Charitable Trust.
A lovely old building like the Memorial Hall costs a great deal each year to maintain, heat, light and insure, and, being a charitable trust, we rely entirely on donations as well as the income we raise through bookings of our excellent facilities.
This is where YOU can help……………..just a small monthly gift from you helps us enormously. It need not be much; just £3 or £5 (or whatever you feel you can afford), given each month by direct debit, will help us to keep the Hall in excellent condition and allow us to maintain our booking fees as low as possible so that the people of Pickering can, affordably, use and visit this wonderful building.
