Following the announcement of our £10,000 giveaway competition winner, our SEH BAC installers have begun the transformation of the winning community building, West Cliff Theatre in Clacton-on-Sea.
As part of the competition, we are replacing the existing windows and doors in the theatre with modern, energy efficient alternatives, which would help to considerably reduce the running costs of the theatre.
Completely self-funded with all grants ceased and mainly run by volunteers, the West Cliff Theatre is in dire need of renovation to help them keep their doors open. The theatre was founded in 1894 and welcomes 35,000 visitors every year. In an effort to secure more funds, the theatre even established their own charity shop in Holland-on-Sea.
“It’s great to see our installers arrive at the West Cliff Theatre to begin the important work of ensuring this much-loved staple of the Clacton community can continue to operate for generations to come,” comments MD, John Savage. “The community giveaway was launched to commemorate our 45-years of trading across the South-East and to recognise a community building that was in desperate need of our help.”
“Buildings like this are truly important to the local area and to our customers, so we are absolutely delighted that we can give the West Cliff Theatre a new lease of life. We can’t wait to see the result!”
We are specialists in windows, doors and conservatories and currently have 17 show centres across the South East including Ipswich, Chelmsford and Colchester, with more planned in the near future.
