Community buildings – next steps towards re-opening

Meeting room image

Planning for the re-opening of your community building

Community buildings can currently be open to the public for two reasons: ‘to provide essential voluntary activities or urgent public support services’, and (from Monday 1 June) for ‘early years childcare provided by a person registered on the Early Years Register’.

EDIT – with effect from Mon 15 June, community buildings can also open to host an indoor market (see paragraph (4) (e) of this legislation, which amends paragraph (7) of the original Health Protection Regulations).

Guidance on opening for pre-schools is at the link below.

Covid-19 Re-opening guidance ref pre-schools 2020 06 04th

The next stage in re-opening community halls and centres will take place from 6 July at the earliest, as part of step 3 of the Government’s Our Plan to Rebuild process.  We hope to have detailed guidance for managers and trustees of community buildings in mid-June, so please look out for this in our news bulletins and here on our website.  You can register for our news emails and see previous bulletins at this link.

Join our video conference on 25 June

We will be hosting a video conference on Zoom from 10 am to 12 noon on Thursday 25 June to share this guidance and to address your questions and concerns about re-opening.  Please note your interest by emailing Kevin Sawers and he will send you the meeting details and password.  Demand is likely to be high so we’ll need to limit attendance to one person per organisation.  We will record the meeting, though, and will send out the audio recording afterwards for you to share with colleagues and trustees (just within your organisation, please).

If demand does prove very high we may restrict attendance to members of Action Hampshire.  We are currently offering 3 months’ membership for free so apply now to guarantee your place on this video conference – membership details are here and email Kevin Sawers to register for the video meeting.

  • Pamber parish council were really pleased with the support provided by Action Hampshire’s Rural Housing Enabler helping us through the development process. It was a good experience.

    Chris Goss, Pamber Parish Council
  • Action Hampshire has always been a useful font of information for us at Winchester Churches Nightshelter. Sue has always been really helpful, and I do find the updates from the ‘wider’ world to be of interest.

    Michèle Price, Winchester Churches Nightshelter
  • Having Action Hampshire as a point of reference, support and guidance is invaluable for small to medium sized charities like ourselves. Without them, we would be far less connected and less able to serve our beneficiaries in a meaningful and coordinated way.

    Juno Hollyhock, The Rose Road Association
  • I have found Action Hampshire to be truly innovative and forward thinking in their approach to their work and their passion for the voluntary and community sector is easily measured through their work to help improve the lives of all sections of the community.

    Grant Cornwell, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Community Foundation
  • Action Hampshire are the most fantastic organisation and it has been a pleasure to collaborate with them. They are very positive and easy to work with, from Rachel’s warmth on the front desk all the way up to Sue’s vast knowledge and experience on the top floor.

    George Scott-Welsh, IncuHive
