East Riding Village Halls Network Conference at Holme on Spalding Moor
Village halls play a vital role in rural communities across East Yorkshire, providing a central space where residents can gather, organise events, and support community projects. Recently, the East Riding Village Halls Network brought together committee members and organisers from village halls across the region for a conference held at Holme on Spalding Moor Village Hall.
At R & J PA Hire, we were pleased to support the event by providing professional radio microphones and presentation screen equipment, helping speakers deliver presentations clearly to a packed hall of attendees.
The conference provided an opportunity for village hall committees across the East Riding to come together, share ideas and learn about ways to improve and develop their facilities for the future.

A Packed Hall of Village Hall Committee Members
The conference attracted a large number of attendees from across the East Riding of Yorkshire, with many village hall committee members attending to learn more about the opportunities available to support their local facilities.
Village halls are often run by volunteers who dedicate their time to maintaining these important community venues. Events such as the Network conference allow committees to share experiences and discuss improvements that can benefit local communities.
Throughout the day, a range of talks and workshops were delivered, covering topics including:
- Future funding opportunities for village halls
- Improving community facilities
- Energy efficiency and building upgrades
- Supporting rural communities through local venues
The conference was organised to provide practical information and guidance to help committees plan improvements and develop their halls for future generations.

Professional Radio Microphones for Clear Presentations
Clear sound is essential when hosting conferences and meetings, particularly when multiple speakers are presenting to a large audience.
For this event, R & J PA Hire supplied professional radio microphones, allowing presenters to move freely while delivering their talks and workshops.
Wireless microphones are ideal for events such as conferences and presentations because they provide:
- Clear, reliable sound throughout the room
- Freedom of movement for speakers
- Professional audio quality for presentations
- Reduced cable clutter on stage or presentation areas
With a busy schedule of presentations throughout the day, reliable microphones ensured that all speakers could be heard clearly by attendees seated throughout the hall.

Large Screen Presentation Display for Conference Talks
In addition to microphones, R & J PA Hire provided a large presentation screen to allow speakers to display slides and visual content during their sessions.
Many presentations throughout the conference included:
- Slides explaining funding opportunities
- Information about improving community facilities
- Guidance for managing village halls
- Visual examples of successful projects
Having a large screen display ensured that everyone in the room could clearly see the presentations, helping attendees follow the information being shared throughout the day.
Presentation screens are an important part of modern conferences, particularly when speakers are delivering detailed information or visual presentations.
