Projector Crowdfunding
Cross Hands Cinema has launched a crowdfunding campaign to replace our projector. Our old projector is becoming harder to maintain, and spare parts are difficult to obtain. We need updated digital technology that is more energy-efficient, meets the standards and requirements of the contemporary film industry and our audiences, and allows us to keep doing what we love.
As part of this, we’re offering gifts in kind to donors, from free cinema tickets to private screenings to advertising for local businesses.
Please consider donating to this cause today and help keep the cinema operating.

“While the original hall was constructed some 20-odd years earlier, the hall you see today in Cross Hands opened in the 1930s thanks to the Miners’ Welfare Institute, with the upkeep of the hall being funded by local miners contributing 1p a week from their pay packets.”

“But to survive in the long-term the cinema needs funds to improve its technology. A fundraising page has been set up welcoming donations of different amounts.”
