In the charity's own words

The successful bid with Big Lottery Fund in 2014/15 to renovate a disused building in Mousehole has now been completed; we are delighted that following the unofficial launch in August 2016 and the Royal Launch in April 2017, the Community Hall is now fully functioning and offering fantastic services to the Village and further afield. Plans are in place to open a Heritage Centre.
