Crowdfunding appeal for Campsie Hall nears £1,000 within hours of its launch
Campsie Memorial Trust launched the appeal for a new boiler for the hall which would cost £5,000.
The trust was created to take over the management and development of a hall which had been neglected and seen as inaccessible by the community.

A spokesperson for the Trust said: “The hall is now viewed by our community as a central focus of social life and activity.
“Hall use has grown exponentially and activity has increased by 300 per cent.
“Clearly there is a need for this facility. This current appeal gives everyone the opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to our village life.

“Unfortunately the system is now defunct.”
