BVC are pleased to announce the receipt of a successful funding bid to Warwickshire County Councils Community Development Fund.

We have received £1,200 part funding towards the installation of a new Integral Multi Media & Presentation system. This new installation in the Beaumont room will allow all users to show presentations easily and professionally as well as show films or play music. We will also be launching additional Film events at the centre.

Why not come along to the centre and check out what facilities & activities we have on offer that may suit you from hiring the rooms for a private party to joining in with the Woodturners!!

Its that time of year again….

TRUSTEE APPOINTMENT

Bulkington Village Centre is a charitable trust with 9 Directors and an established and committed workforce.

We are looking for suitable volunteers to join the Board of Trustees.

You will need to have an interest in overseeing the provision of services to the community and the successful running of the Centre.  All trustees must be Bulkington residents and preferably have some organisational experience within the private, voluntary or public sector. The basic duties are attending the monthly board meeting which oversees all aspects of this charitable company and joining in at least one of six Board sub-committees that meet to consider finance, buildings and equipment, personnel, health & safety, entertainment and procedures. 

The centre is well supported by an efficient and happy workforce, and the Board is a friendly group which is made up of a usefully diverse range of individuals with different experiences and skills. If you are interested in serving your local community and are wondering whether you might have something to offer to this voluntary organisation, please contact the Village Centre on 76 494094 for more info

Volunteer Trustee for YOUR local Community Centre

Comedy, cartoonery, poetry & improv! For audiences 9 to 109. A hilarious live-action cartoon of the community starring its friendly folks… these two nationally-known figures in a real one-off show which will make you see your audience and community in a completely new light. Ian McMillan you will know for his popular and funny poetry and his regular appearances (and distinctive Yorkshire accent) on national radio and TV: “The Today Programme”, “Newsnight Review”, “Just a Minute”, “Have I got News For You” and lots more plus his own weekly radio show “The Verb”. If you read any national newspaper you will have seen Tony Husband’s hilarious cartoons – they regularly appear in Private Eye, The Times, Sunday Express and lots of others, plus he’s been crowned Cartoonist of the Year no fewer than ten times. Ian performs his solo poetry comedy spot and then while everyone’s still clutching their sides, he invites cartoonist Tony onstage for some off the cuff cartoon drawing. What follows is a brilliant half hour fed by YOUR local gossip/characters/local legends/ongoing planning nightmares which Ian and Tony ‘perform’ as comedy poetry, song and live large-scale cartoons drawn right in front of your eyes. You’ll end up with a memorable snapshot of that night and Tony gives away his drawings at the end.
