The Chillenden Rainbow Appeal was set up in 2003 to raise money for urgent repairs and restoration work to both All Saints Church and the Village Hall. Under the direction of the PCC the Rainbow Appeal Committee has raised over £100,000 from a wide range of fundraising events and grant applications for the necessary works. The main works at All Saints Church are now largely complete (2008). These included works to waterproof the south wall and repair the plaster work, repairs to the guttering, windows and entrance porch, as well the installation of a modern heating and lighting system, and the creation of a small kitchen area and associated storage. The focus for 2009 now is the Village Hall. Whilst the hall is actively being used by the community for meetings, keep fit and pilates classes, and parties it is in need of renovation and modernisation to bring it up to current standards. In particular the kitchen and toilets need a total rebuild, as well as improvements to access, lighting, heating and storage general need upgrading.
During 2009 the Rainbow Appeal Committee will continue its fundraising work to provide resources to the PCC to carry out its capital works programme. Your support and input is very gratefully received.
