Why are so many Village Halls struggling to keep pace?


Source: charity-commission.gov.uk – RS9

‘Some Halls are facing a battle to get users involved in the

activities of their Village Hall or Community Centre’.

‘There’s a mixed picture with some Halls being extremely

effective at identifying and meeting the needs of their

Community and others being very narrow in their focus with

a tendency to focus on problems rather than solutions’.

‘Some Trustees and their Staff embrace change and seek

imaginative ways of responding to it and securing the

funding they need, others are blinkered by nostalgia.’
