About the Church Hall
Cherry Willingham Church Hall was built in the 19th century as the village school when Education Acts made schooling compulsory. When the building stopped being a school, the village children went to nearby Fiskerton or Reepham up until a new Primary School was built in the 1960s.
Cherry Willingham is a large village approximately 4 miles, (6 km) from the city of Lincoln.
The hall is a well used and popular facility for the village and the surrounding area.
In addition to Church events, numerous local organisations of all ages (eg. Playgroup, U3A Craft, U3A Natural History and Architecture, Mothers' Union, Gardening Club, Over 60's Luncheon Club, Forget-me-Not's Club, Men Aloud, Guitar Club, Dance Practice) as well as private functions.
Location
The Church Hall is located on High Street in Cherry Willingham, not far from the city of Lincoln.
Lincolnshire Co-op Community Champions
The Church Hall has been nominated the Lincolnshire Co-operative Community Champions for the Cherry Willingham area for the next six months. This scheme raises funds from store collections, a percentage from the sale of plastic bags, staff fundraising and a proportion of the dividend fund. Thanks to the Co-op and also to customers of local stores for their support.
The official announcement was “Congratulations your group is now one of our Community Champions and we will be raising money for you from Sunday 6th September 2026 to Saturday 6th March 2027. In total the Co-op is supporting 225 groups during our campaign; local groups and charities that are making a huge difference in our local communities.
The scheme works slightly different to other funders as there isn’t a set amount that you apply for, however, we aim that each group will receive between £500 – £1,000. We don’t know how much will be raised until the end of the fundraising period as it’s based on a number of factors including colleague fundraising, store collections, a percentage of carrier bag proceeds and most importantly – every time a member shops and uses their dividend card a donation goes to their local Community Champion.”
