The Swallow Village Hall Association ( VHA) needed financial assistance in replacing some of their obsolete equipment including a marquee, chairs and fridge costing some £5,758.

Our own W Bro Arthur Baxter felt it was a worthy cause and approached the Mark PGM who agreed. In a gesture of co-operation between Mark and Craft not seen since the terrible flooding of Wainfleet in 2019, the Craft PGM Rt. W. Bro David Wheeler agreed we would once again share the cost and the LMBA and New Provincial Benevolent funds each contributed £2,879.

Mick Stocker, Mark Charity Steward, Cathy Slater, Steve Hallberg, Kath Stoneman, Paul Ellis, Craft Charity Steward, and Arthur Baxter. The recipients were absolutely delighted we have given them these grants which will set them right for the summer to host their own fund-raising events.
