A GROUP of students have given up their Easter break to give back to the community, and earn vital experience. Painting and decorating students from Bishop Auckland College have given up their free time to help give Stanhope Community Hall a new look. The hall had been in need of a fresh coat of paint, but the church struggled to find the time and the funding to facilitate it. The hall has many uses including a food bank, toddlers’ group, and polling station. The group of students work with Trades4care, a local Community Interest Company and have worked on many projects before including Raby Castle.
