BARCOMBE VILLAGE HALL
Coronavirus/Covid 19 Pandemic
As with other community facilities, the recent health emergency has affected the availability of the Village Hall resulting in its closure to the public from 20 March until further notice. Following guidance from the Charity Commission the following steps have been put in place to deal with the present circumstances.
1. Measures to ensure cleaning, maintenance and security whilst the Hall is closed.
2. The postponement of the 2020 AGM until April 2021 and the cancellation of Management Committee meetings until further notice.
3. With their approval, the continuation of the present Management Committee members and officers until the 2021 AGM.
4. In the absence of Committee meetings discussion and decisions on significant issues to take place by email.
Steps 2-4 are contrary to the procedures given in our Governing Document (a form of constitution written by the Charity Commission). However, under present circumstances variations as given above are being allowed by the Commission provided that in order to demonstrate good governance of the Charity an appropriate record is made. This notice is part of the record of these departures from the Governing Document.

Barcombe Village Hall is a beautiful and modern architect-designed sustainable building. The hall has been built to accommodate a wide variety of activities and functions and can seat 120 people around tables. The main hall and stage can be used as a single split-level room or, with the aid of sound-proof stage doors, as two separate function rooms. The walls to the north and east are built substantially of glass and afford the most magnificent views down to the reservoir and across the Barcombe countryside towards the Ashdown Forest and across to the Ouse Valley. In addition, the Meeting Room provides an area for smaller groups.
