About the VEF

The Ventnor Enhancement Fund was created as a charity in 2006 to add those small embellishments to the town that official bodies do not provide. 

Generous donations and support from residents and businesses, together with grants from the Big Lottery, have enabled this work to proceed, with at least one major project per year.

In this period of austerity, the activities of VEF have become even more important.   The work is carried out by a small group of volunteers, who have gained immense satisfaction from the experience of beautifying the town and adding extra facilities.  

The VEF holds monthly meetings in which they plan their short and long-term project work and fundraising activities. Work parties are arranged to tackle new and routine projects which often involves painting and decorating or gardening. 

Generally these teams consist of only a few people, but a morning’s hard work is enough to make a big difference.  The fundraising activities can be quite labour-intensive but are usually great fun and lucrative.  The VEF maintains regular contact with the Town Council, offering mutual support.

Harry Hippo

Meet Harry Hippo, the charismatic and slightly unconventional Admin at Hipposerve! Known for his love of the lush and muddy swamps, Harry is a proud vegetarian, favoring the simplicity and freshness of grass — it's his idea of haute cuisine. But don't let his calm, herbivorous lifestyle fool you; Harry is as passionate about swimming as he is about server uptime. With a splash and a dash, he glides through waters (and web hosting issues) with equal grace. Whether he's troubleshooting in the digital world or doing the backstroke in his favorite swamp, Harry brings a unique blend of charm, expertise, and a bit of hippo humor to everything he does. So, if you find your website in deep water, just remember: Harry Hippo is the one to pull you ashore!
