Category: Village Hall

You may be aware that our village hall is not in the best of shape and needs a considerable investment to bring it to the standard we would all like to see so that it can be used to its full potential. 

Before we make any investment we need to understand what the fabric of our current building is really like and exactly what is required to ensure it is structurally sound and fit for purpose.  As we consider potential projects we would like to understand what people would like from their community building in the future so that it can be considered in the design.  

Do you have the skills we might need?

To ensure inclusion and effectiveness we would like to set up a working group with the appropriate skills and experience. The Village Hall Committee is very small and we know that we do not have all the skills required to make the most of this exciting opportunity.  

With that in mind we are asking everyone in the village if they have, or know someone who has, the following skills or expertise that could join a small working group.  Whether you are retired or working, but feel able to volunteer a few hours of your time every month, we would like to hear from you if you:

• have some project management experience to guide the group in the development of a project plan
• have a background in quantity surveying or structural engineering 
• are an architect or experience in draughting architectural design
• have some experience in community consultation and/or engagement
• have experience in grant application and funding
