Bocking Village Club and Village Hall was established in 1926 as a heritage building gifted to the community by the Courtauld Family. The venue is a non-profit organization run by unpaid volunteers and comprises of the Village Hall and a Social Club for residents to enjoy. Both facilities are used by hundreds of people each week for various social activities, including bingo, quiz nights, and sports events.
The donation will fund the conversion of the existing Village Hall lighting to LED fittings. This will help reduce their carbon footprint and electricity costs, allowing them to put money towards improving other parts of the facility.
Margaret Surrey, Club Secretary at Bocking Village Club and Village Hall, comments: “We are incredibly grateful to Redrow Eastern for their generous donation. We are super excited to use this support to transform our building, helping us to continue to positively impact our local community, who are the heart and soul of Braintree!”
Jody Bryant, Sales Director at Redrow Eastern, comments: “Community is such an important factor when choosing where to live, and we’re always looking for ways to give back to the local area. The residents at our developments truly value their local groups and organisations, which are the heart and soul of happy, healthy, and safe communities. We look forward to seeing the positive impact our donation will have on Bocking Village Club and Village Hall!”
In 2024 Redrow Eastern launched their first Community Fund to help support the incredible community work led by groups, schools, organisations and individuals across Essex, Suffolk and Hertfordshire. The initiative aims to provide resources so the groups at the heart of these communities have the equipment and tools they need to continue the amazing work they are doing or even start a new exciting project. We have already donated to a range of local causes through the fund, in addition to providing investment in the local area and contributions toward education, healthcare, public transport and affordable housing.
