St Catherines Hill, an area of outstanding natural beauty and the highest point in Christchurch, is home to a modern, spacious and
welcoming community hall.
Many events are held here on a regular basis and the Hall is also hired out for private functions such as children's parties, lunches, teas and quizzes.
Due to it's residential location it isn't suitable for teenage parties and evening functions need to finish by 11pm.

Appeal for Committee Members
Firstly, may I introduce myself - I am John Spittle and for a number of years have been Chairman of the St Catherine's Hill Commmunity Hall
We are a very able, active and friendly Committee that meets on the second Monday of each month, and apart from Neil our caretaker, are all volunteers. Our duties, as you can see below, are not onerous, but use of a computer is required for correspondence;-
Chairman - chairs monthly meetings and oversees the general organisation and upkeep of the Hall.
Treasurer - deals with the accounts, providing monthly reports to the committee and end of year reports to the Auditor.
Bookings Officer - liaises with current and future hirers and issuing invoices.
Secretary - records meetings, and retains paperwork.
Publicity - keeps website up to date, and assists with Hall's computing matters.
Fundraiser - organises the quarterly quizzes
We are aware that none of us are getting any younger so to help with tasks and eventual handover we hope you can help us.
Should a number of the committee members become unavailable through sickness, family commitments, or move,we would not be able to successfully run the Hall and without any replacements we would have to consider asking our landlords - BCP council to take over.
Naturally, we would be very reluctant to do that, as, I am sure you will agree, the present arrangement works well.
Therefore I am asking if you would please consider joining our Committee, or know someone who can, in which case please contact me by email or telephone, or speak to one of the Committee.
Many thanks for your time,
Regards
John Spittle
