Bill Cooke, right, chairman of Atworth Parish Council thanks Cliff Carter from Hills Group and Alison Crawford from Community First for their work
THE people of Atworth have been able to repair the roof of their village hall thanks to a grant.
The Hills Recycling Group secured £3,800 worth of funding from a landfill tax scheme to pay for the work. On Wednesday, Bill Cooke, chairman of Atworth Parish Council thanked Cliff Carter, the manager of Hills Recycling and Alison Crawford from Community First - the body that administers the tax scheme - for their fund raising efforts.
The village hall's 90-year-old roof needed new tile pins as the old ones had rusted away, and a layer of felting.
