St Mary’s Church Hall Appeal

The St. Mary’s Church Hall appeal was launched on 6th June 2026.   A group from the Nevill estate and St.Anne’s parish enjoyed cake, coffee and considering fund raising ideas.  Once in the hall, the range of organisations regularly using the hall was apparent. These  community activities include dance, exercise and relaxation classes, badminton, family parties, meetings of the Nevill Residents’ Association, Lewes Nevill WI, Friends of Landport Bottom, music rehearsals.and Nevill bonfire events. 

Those frequently using the hall were very aware of the need for keeping the building maintained and modern. The kitchen is the first project to be identified. The target of £10,000 has been set to cover this maintenance.

A series of fundraising events have been agreed.  The first few are detailed below.
