Background

Tarbrax Village Hall is a multi-purpose community hall in the village of Tarbrax on the border between South Lanarkshire and West Lothian, 10 miles south of Livingston. The hall hosts regular events and is available to hire.

Need for Support

Tarbrax Village Hall Trustees recognised the need for Hall improvements and refurbishment. In the current climate of rising running costs and reduced usage in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a particular need to consider options for the long-term future of Tarbrax Village Hall. 

What we Did

A community survey was developed and distributed in order to help the Trustees understand and prioritise potential changes to the Hall.  

Outcomes

Community consultation involving a comprehensive survey was undertaken, which allowed us to create a report outlining the key priorities for the Hall. We also provided guidance on asset management amidst cost-of-living increases.
