The Hildersham Village Hall Charitable Trust is working very hard in our efforts to build a new hall, as sadly our existing hall will have to be eventually replaced as it is very slowly subsiding, as when it was built it did not have any foundations. HVHT is holding a wide range of fund raising events and one of the ways you can help is by attending one of these. We also welcome your gift-aided donations, these can be sent to the HVHT Treasurer at the following address.

Hildersham Village Hall has a fascinating history,
during the First World War it acted as a Surgical Ward at
the First Great Eastern Army Hospital sited at Trinity College
in Cambridge. At the end of the Great War, these Army
Huts were retired and the residents of Hildersham decided
to buy one as a new village hall. The 'Recreation
Room' as it was initially called cost just £83 12s
0d and it was finally erected in late 1920. The hut
was paid for by the villagers themselves.
Tepees used for a big wedding on the Saturday & for a fantastic village Fun Day on the Sunday, which included music (here with Sawston Steel), sports day and later a celebration of local churches
with Bishop David of Huntingdon
