A voice for Village Halls and Community Buildings
RCCE undertakes surveys and consultations to provide feedback
to Government on a number of matters and to provide evidence for
lobbying Government on certain legislative and regulatory issues and
particularly to provide a case for better funding provision.
Evidence of these consultations is available in report format available from RCCE.
RCCE encourages hall committees to take part in consultations and
surveys which may affect legislation and regulation currently governing
hall administrators.
Every 10 years, RCCE and ACRE distribute an important and valued
document - the ‘Village Halls & Community Buildings Survey’ and all
Essex hall management committees are encouraged to complete and return
this document.
This helps RCCE and ACRE to provide information to government and
other bodies, on the role and responsibilities of hall committees.
The last survey was completed in 2009 and the results published in
‘Rural Community Buildings in England 2009 – Key Findings’, available
from RCCE.
