Adderley Village Hall Redevelopment update

Following the community update in March 2026, and very supportive comments for the redevelopment of the village halland bowling pavilion. The committee feel we are in a position to apply for full planning permission for the village hall element of the project. This will allow us to get more accurate costings and allow us to further investigate grant opportunities.

Moving ahead with planning application for the Village Hall is an important step as we look to enhance community facilities in the village.

In addition, we are still very keen to rebuild the bowling pavilion. Following feedback, we are looking at some amendments to the original design proposal. Once a new design has been completed, it will be presented for consultation before the separate planning application is made for the for the Pavillion.

Both buildings will form part of a single grant application to ensure we maximise funds available for the project.

ADDERLEY VILLAGE HALL 2026 AND BEYOND

In 2025 we distributed a questionnaire throughout the Adderley parish to determine thoughts regarding the redevelopment of the Village Hall and Bowling Pavilion.

Following the excellent response to the questionnaire, and valuable feedback from the community meeting, we have now progressed to the next phase of the redevelopment project.

We have appointed an architect, who has drawn provisional plans and produced a 3D image of the hall and pavilion.

The plans will be presented at the AGM to allow residents to see the latest ideas and to give further feedback.

After the meeting we would like to be able to progress to final plans.

We will then apply for planning permission and seek essential grant funding. Such funding is only available if there is a proven demand from the community, which means that any redevelopment will enhance the facilities for residents.

WE NEED YOUR HELP…..PLEASE ATTEND THE AGM

We also welcome anybody who may be interested in joining the committee to ensure the ongoing success of the Village Hall.

But you don’t have to be a committee member to get involved in village life. There are a number ways to contribute to the village community, many hands make light work, so please do not wait to be asked. If you would like to help, however small the input may seem, we would welcome your involvement. If you would like more information, please ring…..

Adderley village hall redevelopment update

Following the excellent response to the community survey we continue to progress with the redevelopment project.

IT’S HAPPENING

We have taken on board a number of very constructive points, some long term regarding the plans, and some which we can act on immediately

WE’RE LISTENING

Firstly, we have developed an Adderley Community WhatsApp.

It is a “one direction” WhatsApp which will allow us to send messages about anything going on in the village and important updates on all projects.

It does not allow return of conversation, so will not be full of chat, just interesting and appropriate community messages straight to your phone.

IT’S BRILLIANT

It is facilitated by using a QR code, which means we do not need to retain any mobile numbers, so there are no GDPR issues to be concerned about.

IT’S SAFE

Secondly, we are organising regular events in the village, for example weekly quizzes, monthly coffee mornings and a village get together on 13th September.

IT’S EXCITING

All information will be sent in a very simple message on the Adderley Village Community WhatsApp, so follow the QR code to register.

IT’S EASY

The actual redevelopment is in the stage of creating a business plan and investigating funding. We need to bring together a small group of people to represent all parts of the community.

IT’S IMPORTANT.
