Text from press release - about a week late but better late than never
THE SAVE WOOLTON CINEMA CAMPAIGN IS PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE SOME VERY GOOD NEWS!
A group of local businessmen have purchased the Woolton Picture House (contracts have been exchanged) with the intention of re-opening it as a cinema.
The projectionist David Parr and other staff will be kept on.
There is no news yet on how soon the cinema will re-open, but we're hoping it won't be too long. You will be able to see a glimpse of it though on this Friday's 'Lilies' drama on BBC1.
We will put all the full details on the website as soon as we are able to.
Rest assured, the money we have raised will not be going to waste. It will be donated to the Marie Curie Cancer Care Foundation here in Woolton Village. More about that on our website soon as well.
A very big thank you to everyone who supported the campaign to 'Save Woolton Cinema'. It's down to you guys showing how much the cinema means to the community that made it still a viable business proposition.
Many thanks to everyone from the Campaign Team
Sally, Glen, Lynne, Steve and Andy
