Community buildings and village halls are valuable and essential venues for playgroups, dance classes, sports activities, adult education, meetings, family celebrations and other activities. They are often the hubs around which community life revolves.

They also need constant care and attention to be kept up to standard and be economically viable. Management committees and trustees are responsible for the safety and legal status of these buildings so that everyone can make use of them.

Join the Community Buildings Advice Service to be confident that your community building or village hall is safe, and your management committee and trustees are protected from liabilities. Please contact CCB for details and membership fees.

The CBAS can also help community building and village hall management committees who require support to resolve specific problems, but who decide not to join the scheme. All services are available on a consultancy basis, please contact us for details and prices.
