Parkside Hall - Rebuilding our Community Hall
Parkside hall (http://parksidehallampthill.com)is now showing its age and requiring a great deal of expenditure on maintenance. The charity land includes the Nottingham Rooms, a smaller hall, (administered by the Town Council), and a disused netball court. The Trustees have decided that the only suitable course is to redevelop the whole site to provide a replacement hall and an enlarged car park. Obviously this is a very big project requiring a great deal of planning and fundraising. Consultations are taking place now and it is likely that a new hall will cost in the region of £500,000. As part of that fundraising effort we are appealing to the residents of Ampthill to make a donation to ensure a new hall becomes a reality. You can make a donation via the Virgin Money Giving Button below. What's more, Parkside Hall benefits from Gift Aid by donating this way:

Ben's Story
Hi my name is Ben and I was very poorly last year with a brain tumour. Fortunately I was diagnosed at Luton and Dunstable Hospital and transferred to Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge. I had to stay in hospital and my mum slept by my bed, however my dad had to make the long journey home to Ampthill with my brother and sister at a time when we all wanted to be together. My mum and dad where very tired and very upset. Fortunately The Sick Childrens Trust came to help us and gave my family a room in Acorn House which is a home from home at Addenbrookes for families to stay free of charge.
The Sick Childrens Trust provide accommodation for families who have a very sick child and need to be close by. My family and friends now want to raise money to help this charity continue to provide this much needed support. Please help us to reach our £10,000 target in raising money for Acorn house so children in this area who have cancer or need intensive care can have their mum and dad, brothers and sisters stay close by. It costs the charity £25 a night to accommodate a family. Due to demand some parents do not get this accommodation, help make this situation a thing of the past and enable all parents and siblings to stay together when they need it most. Thanks a million Ben x
