Ratby Village Hall In Main Street

Article by Elaine Sharp

The hall is run by a small committee and is self supporting. The building was erected in the 1950's and used for various purposes over the years.

At present we offer the hall for hire to a number of groups, including a Dance Academy for children, exercise classes and an art group. We class these as our "regulars".

Children’s parties are also popular. Ratby Rascals is a group for younger children and takes place on Monday mornings.

Our Evergreen Club (open to seniors) is also popular. Arranging day trips and short break holidays, pick up points in the village is a real plus.

Bingo is played twice a week and of course they often celebrate birthdays and other special occasions.

Another popular event is our Thursday morning "Drop In" and has been running for over 20 years. The "Drop In" is open to everyone. Coffee, tea is £1 and a warm welcome is extended to everyone.
