Work has begun on the extension to Jubilee Hall

There will be an additional new large Community Hall which will be double the size of the existing one, along with an extension to the existing garage for storage of grounds equipment. Two new kitchens will provide refreshment facilities for both hall hires as well as additional toilet facilities accessible from both inside and outside of the building.

The remaining hall will remain unchanged with disruption to current hall hirers not expected until December 2023.

Work is expected to be completed by the end of July 2024.

This project has taken considerable time to get to this stage, with plans being amended to suit the needs of the community and remain within budget.

This project is part-funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

The UK Shared Prosperity Fund is a central pillar of the UK government's Levelling Up agenda and provides £2.6 billion of funding for local investment by March 2025. The Fund aims to improve pride in place and increase life chances across the UK investing in communities and place, supporting local business, and people and skills.
