Trustees

The Victoria and Jubilee Halls trustees work hard to raise money for the halls to ensure their survival. This is because they believe the halls provide crucial entertainment services to the Hartley Wintney community.

I became involved with the Victoria Hall in 2014 and a trustee in 2017. I grew up in Denmark where I qualified and worked as a nurse before coming to the UK in 1978. I continued nursing part-time so I could train to become a swimming teacher. I taught swimming at Hart Leisure Centre for 20 years.
