Back in October, we were pleased to support Linkage Community Trust with a special hard hat tour at Weelsby Hall in Grimsby, offering visitors a unique opportunity to step inside this beautiful Victorian Grade II listed building and learn more about its restoration. Owned by George Sleight, a member of North East Lincolnshire Fishocracy, Weelsby Hall is a building rich in local history and heritage. As restoration work continues, opportunities like this provide a fantastic way to bring people closer to the building, its stories and its future. With thanks to National Lottery funding, this important restoration work is helping to preserve a significant piece of local heritage for future generations to enjoy. The event was led by Linkage Community Trust, with support from our team. Site Manager Lee Brennan, Quantity Surveyor Charlie Mason and Social Value Delivery & Marketing, Riannon Speechley helped support the day, sharing insight into the restoration works and giving visitors a closer look at the progress being made. We were also delighted to see the involvement of the Friends of Weelsby Hall volunteers, whose knowledge, enthusiasm and personal stories added another dimension to the experience, helping bring the history of the hall to life. It was a brilliant opportunity to support Linkage Community Trust in delivering an engaging and informative experience, while celebrating the heritage of this special building and the importance of preserving it for future generations. A big thank you to Linkage Community Trust, the Friends of Weelsby Hall volunteers and everyone involved in making the day such a success. We're proud to have played a part!
