Elmbridge has issued an important consultation on the future of Hersham Village Hall – consultation papers were delivered to every household in Hersham and full details are also available on the Elmbridge website – where you can also respond on-line.  See full explanation and consultation reply option on the EBC website – please respond by the 25th of January.

The future of the hall has been a matter for strong views and heated debate ever since it was closed for safety related reasons in 2017.  The possible repair and refurbishment of the existing facility is an option that many favour, and it was good to see this recognised in the text introducing the questionnaire – alongside the possibilities for redevelopment.

However, several HRA members have commented that they were disappointed that there was no reference to the repair and reinstate option in the questionnaire itself, and this fact is likely to be reflected in the results when these are collated at the end of the survey.
