Lottery Draw september

image of lottery draw

The draw for the Village Centre Lottery was made today at our Community Lunch. The three lucky winners share the prize fund as follows:

1st Prize number 6 winning £30.00

2nd Prize number 29 winning £20

3rd Prize number 44 winning £10

A bit of a plea from the heart. Lottery subscriptions are diminishing, probably because people think that the Centre is up and running now and that nothing needs to be spent. However, we have a rolling programme of improvements and the purchase of new equipment. More tables and chairs, more kitchen cupboards, a better quality sound system for cinema screenings, these are just a few items that we need to raise money for. So please support our Lottery, it only costs £5 per month and you will be helping the Centre which is here for the benefit of the whole village. Information on how to join or renew a Lottery subscription can be found on our website DersinghamVillageCentre.org.uk/fundraising.html Thanks!

Village Cinema and Supper

Village Cinema poster September 2019Our next screening at the Village Cinema is on Tuesday 24th September. The film is Stan & Ollie, the story of comedy duo Laurel and Hardy’s final tour of Britain, shortly after World War II. Brilliantly acted by Steve Coogan as Stan Laurel and John C. Reilly as Oliver Hardy, those who remember old black and white films of the two will be amazed at the likeness. There are plenty of funny moments, but it also has the pathos of stars who were once the toast of Hollywood but are now rapidly declining into ‘has beens’.

Before the screening there is the chance to enjoy supper at the Centre, at 6.00pm. You need to pre-book supper by phoning Shirley on 01485 540644. Lasagne is on the menu, with both a meat and veggie option. Tea and coffee included, other drinks available to buy.

Tickets cost £10 with supper or £5 without. Children under 16 half price. The film will be shown at 7.30pm.
