LOCHAWE VILLAGE HALL
Lochawe village hall was built on its present site in 1967, the old hall having been
burnt down a few years previously. The new hall was constructed after considerable local
fund raising and a grant from Social Services.
The hall was intended to satisfy the recreational requirements of the
local community and currently activities such as W.R.I., Guides, Badminton, First Shinty,
Yoga, Karate, Country Dancing and various childrens and senior citizens parties throughout
the year. It also serves as the polling station for both local and national elections.
The building is used by groups such as mountain rescue teams, army cadets, outward bound
schools and church groups, who all use the hall as a base for training in or exploring the
local hills and countryside.
The building has recently undergone a major refurbishment programme and thanks to very
generous grants from the lottery board, the local round table and fundraising events
organized by the hall committee the roof has been renewed, the electrical system has been
completely rewired and upgraded and the hall redecorated.
The hall is available for hire throughout the year with special rates for voluntary
organizations. Anyone wishing to make use of this facility can contact a committee member
listed below for further information.
