Stevenson Congratulates Buchan Street Hall On ITV 'People's Millions' Success

Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has congratulated Macduff Old Folks’ Association for winning a bonus award from the ITV ‘People’s Millions’.

Buchan Street Hall was one of the contenders for the ITV ‘People’s Millions’ which saw the facility go head-to-head on the STV News on 22 November against another good cause from the STV North region. The MSP met with committee members from the Macduff Old Folks’ Association, who own the hall.

Whilst losing out to Keig Village Hall in the telephone vote, the hall committee have been informed they have won the bonus award and will receive the full amount they were seeking.

Commenting, Mr Stevenson said:

“I am absolutely delighted for the Macduff Old Folks’ Association and the hall users, of which there are many. The Buchan Street Hall is a great community facility which I know from my visit is well-regarded locally by the various hall user groups.

“The Committee have some excellent plans for refurbishing and upgrading the hall which will bring it right up to standard, not least of which will see improvements to the kitchen facilities.

“The ambition of the committee has paid off handsomely and I wish the hall well as they now progress their plans for improvements.”
