Southoe Village Hall development
The Village Hall management committee are please to announce the development of the village hall will start on Monday 23rd June 2025. The committee have worked tirelessly this year and have received just under £40k of grants to allow the village hall to be modernised to a high standard.
Whilst the works are underway, full access to the defibrillator will continue and at no point will it not be able to be easily accessed. Access to the playground, via the village hall entrance, during the first part of the development, will be closed. The area will be fenced off in order for the building works to take place.
The development includes:
Disabled toilet with baby changing facilities
New kitchen
New floors throughout
New heating
New lighting
Free Wifi
New French doors opening onto the playground
Commercial coffee machine free to all users
78” touch screen TV for meetings and events which includes and interactive white board
The removal of the dividing wall to open up the area
New disable access ramps
New porch
Fully decorated
New roof insulation
New storage
Once the building is complete the management committee will be holding a village opening party in the park. We are looking to have a hog roast, drinks, live band and a bouncy castle for the children. This will be a free event and everyone from the village are welcome. We are planning this for mid September.
The work will be transformational, for not just the village hall but the village itself. The first time the hall has been totally modernised in over 40 years.
We will keep the village updated and photos will be published on the village hall website and social media.
Village hall as it was
The village hall has not been modernised over the years, basically staying the same, since 1978.
