Milton Rooms Covid 19 Appeal

The Milton Rooms is at the heart of our community. We offer a wide variety of entertainment, play host to theatre companies and local groups and are a central hub for the Malton Food Festival and monthly markets.

Over the past few months the team at the Milton Rooms has been working hard to put together a programme of events and activities for the whole community.

But, because of the COVID-19 emergency, we have had to close the Milton Rooms to the public for as long as is necessary to beat the virus. The Milton Rooms is a charitable limited company run mostly by volunteers and, with no revenue coming in, we urgently need your help and support to pay outstanding bills, including utilities and insurance.

We need to raise £10,000 by the end of September to safeguard the future of our venue. Should the coronavirus crisis extend for a further three months, that figure will rise to £20,000. Without these funds, our wonderful arts and community facility may have to close for good.

It has been amazing to see how our community has pulled together to support one another during the crisis. We all have great memories of events at the Milton Rooms, whether it be watching family and friends at the pantomime or Ryedale Youth Theatre, attending dances or musical performances, or taking part in community activities such as yoga, Musical Memories or Vintage Dance.

Please support us at this very difficult time so that we can maintain the venue and then thrive as a centre when life returns to nor
