Your Budworth Hall: A Community Treasure Reimagined!
Exciting news! The Budworth Hall Ballroom has undergone a stunning transformation, and we can’t wait for you to see it! With state-of-the-art lighting, improved disabled access, and a completely refurbished look, we think it’s absolutely amazing and are thrilled with the results! One recent visitor even called it “jaw-dropping!” and we think you’ll agree!
Save the date!
To celebrate this incredible makeover, we’re throwing open the doors for a special Open Day on Saturday, April 12th, from 10am to 4pm! Whether you’re discovering Budworth Hall for the first time, or are a long-time supporter, this is your opportunity to explore the revitalised ballroom, and discover everything Budworth Hall has to offer. You can visit the Concert Hall and meeting room upstairs, and see our bar area and museum, all of which are available to hire as well as the beautiful Ballroom.
But that’s not all! Some of our regular hirers will be showcasing their activities, clubs, and organisations by having a stand, and possibly demonstrations. There will be a display on the history of Budworth Hall in the museum area of the bar. Perhaps you will find something new to try. Who knows? You might just discover a new passion!
Come and see the incredible improvements for yourself!
A Huge Thank You!
Much of this amazing work has been made possible by generous grants, and we’d like to extend our heartfelt thanks to The Rural England Prosperity Fund, The National Lottery Community Fund, and Essex Heritage Trust, among others, for their support in bringing this vision to life!
