We hope to be completed by mid-February 2026. Opened in 1953, Slitting Mill Victory Hall is situated on the verge of Cannock Chase. In 2024, a new lease of life was injected into the hall with 5 new Trustees, social committee, and volunteers, all ready to bring the hall back into the community.
We are committed to continuing our relationship with our incredible hirers and welcome the prospect of encouraging more, once our renovations are completed. We would like to express immense gratitude for the ongoing support from Biffa Award, our hirers, the new trustees, social committee, and volunteer residents. On behalf of everyone involved within the hall, we hope you are excited about our upcoming plans. We hope you share our passion for continuing the legacy of the hall and keeping it open for all to enjoy, for our current community as well as our
future generations.
