Grant presented to Baddesley Barnstormers

Boost for Baddesley Barnstormers

Local ward councillors have awarded a £1,000 Councillor Community Grant to Baddesley Barnstormers amateur dramatic group.

 

The group, who have been rehearsing at Nursling and Rownhams Village Hall and Chilworth Parish Hall since September, are self funding and the grant will help assist with the purchase of much-needed sound and lighting equipment, to further enhance their performances and heighten the experience for the audience.

 

The money has been awarded from the Chilworth, Nursling and Rownhams Councillor Community Fund.  Two of the local ward members, Councillor Phil Bundy and Councillor Nigel Anderdon presented the Baddesley Barnstormers with the £1,000 grant at their rehearsal session on Wednesday 16 December.

 

The Baddesley Barnstormers amateur dramatic group has 25 members, ranging from seven to 70 years and is well supported by the local community.

 

Councillor Phil Bundy said;

I am delighted to present this grant along with Councillor Anderdon to the Baddesley Barnstormers amateur dramatic group, who are all working hard to put on a great show.  As councillors, we are keen to support and encourage local community groups within the ward.

 

Councillor Anderdon added;

All those involved in Baddesley Barnstormers are passionate about theatre and I am proud to be able to support them in their performances for the community.

 

Baddesley Barnstormers will be performing Jack and the Beanstalk at Chilworth Parish Hall on Friday 26 and Saturday 27 February.  Tickets are available from Habistore on Botley Road.
