Teign Valley Community Hall Refurbishment Consultation

I hope you’ll be pleased to hear that some of the Teign Valley Commmunity Hall committee members have formed a working group to explore options for a refurbishment and update of the hall.
As you may know, the Hall was built in 1998, funded mainly by Sports Lottery money. It used by a wide range of groups from all over the Valley and beyond for all kinds of meetings, classes, events and private functions. It is a fantastic, well-used facility which has been run and maintained by the Hall Committee for the last 20 years. But there is now scope to make improvements and updates to the building that go beyond the routine repairs and which will make it more efficient and environmentally-friendly to run, and better equipped and more comfortable for its users. This will be costly, so we will be applying for external funding again to pay for the project.
We are seeking expert advice on the technical aspects, but before we design the project and apply for funding, we are consulting the Teign Valley community and other hall users to gather ideas on what people would like to see by way of refurbishment and upgrades to the building. We want as wide a range of views as possible, representing the full range of residents, whatever their age, needs, interests, or time living in the area, in order to make sure that we have a facility which will continue to be used by the whole community for the next 20 years.
Complete the short survey at: tinyurl.com/TVCH2018 
(or try https://exeter.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/tvchconsultation if the short address doesn’t work for you).
The survey is open from 1^st to 10^th December and every survey completed by a Teign Valley resident will be entered for a £25 cash prize draw.
There will be an open meeting at 7.30, Tuesday 18^th December in the Bowden room when we’ll present and discuss the survey results, invite further views from those present, and hold the draw for the £25 cash prize. Please come along if you can.
Thank you in advance for your support.
