Welburn Village Hall

WelburnVillageHall.pdf

"We are immensely proud of our new hall and are grateful to Native for the essential role they played in making it all possible. We would certainly recommend Native to others contemplating such projects" - Martin Roberts - Trustee, Welburn Village Hall

New timber frame village hall with many renewable technologies incorporated to attract funding and reduce running costs and carbon footprint of the building.

Recycled aluminium roof, highly insulated with recycled newsprint insulation, triple-glazed windows, good natural lighting and ventilation, sun pipes, air source heat pump, and sustainably sourced timber cladding were all included in the construction of the building. Internal finishes were stipulated to be made from recycled materials to comply with conditions of grant funding.

The wider benefits of the building include rentable office space for local business, permanently accessible W.C. facility for passing walkers and a base for the International Rescue Service.

"The finished building is much admired and envied by the many people who visit it and make use of it. The new hall is so attractive that it has in itself generated considerable demand for its use far more than the old building ever did."- Martin Roberts
