WHAT DO WE NEED?

We need your support to transform The Belmont, so it can open as a vibrant focal point for the local community.

We have set a target of £3 million, but we want to exceed this target to ensure a long-term future for The Belmont by making the building more energy efficient, and deliver the very best customer experience for many years.

So far, we have been successful in securing significant funding from various sources, but to achieve our ultimate goal, your support is still absolutely vital. 

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Your incredible support will help ensure a long-term future for the venue.
