Gosforth Public Hall & Library is striving to become your very own ‘Community Hub’ and now you have a chance to make your views heard. The Public Hall Council of Management is seeking your views, ideas, comments about how they can make improvements to our Public Hall and Library to create a community hub.
If you are a regular user of the Public Hall and/or Library you may have ideas about the buildings and facilities or you may just have suggestions and comments about activities/performances you would like to see in the hall or information and access to services that would prove useful at the Library.
Whatever your ideas are, from minor tweeks to aspirational visions, please let us know.
There is now a board in the hall where you can post your ideas or you can write or email our Secretary, Jackie Williams, 2 Wells Cottages, Ravenglass CA18 1SP email: gosforth.parish2@outlook.com or leave a comment on this page.
Eagle-eyed residents may have noticed the new Flagpole installed outside the Public Hall thanks to a kind donation from Councillor David Gray. The weather could not have been much worse with a biting high wind but now the flagpole stands proud and no more risking life and limb to crawl out onto the roof to raise a flag.
BT are planning to remove the telephone box from Gosforth Car Park unless the Parish Council indicates that it wishes to ‘adopt’ it by 12th September. Now here’s the dilemma… the Parish Council does not have a budget for repairing and maintaining the phone box which will be stripped of its phone and electricity. So, we need to hear from groups or individuals who are willing and able to look after the box if it is to stay.
Gosforth Public Hall is an ideal venue for parties of all sizes. It has loads of space to let your little ones run around – its even large enough for a bouncy castle! There are dates available in the calendar so look no further and contact the booking officer – you will be surprised how reasonable the hire fees are – 
The Public Hall Committee is always looking for new members who can contribute their time and energy towards maintaining and developing this vibrant community facility. If you are keen to serve your community and/or have ideas about new activities, on how to improve the Public Hall or fund-raising experience, please contact the Secretary via email: gosforth.parish2@outlook.com
