Following a thorough external assessment over the summer, Timberscombe Village Hall Committee is delighted to announce that we have once again retained Hallmarks 1,2 and 3 (level 3 being the highest possible level).
Timberscombe Village Hall was the first hall in West Somerset to achieve a Hallmark 3 in 2007 and we are proud to have retained this level for 18 years. It is testament to the hard work of the Village Hall Committee that we have been able to do so.
Hallmark is a nationally recognised quality assurance scheme which is open to any village or community hall management committee. It aims to:
- Support, establish and reward good practice.
- Encourage improvement in established customs and procedures.
- Obtain recognition from other bodies for the standard of management of community buildings.
- Hallmark 1: Focuses on the management and administration of the hall or building.
- Hallmark 2: Health, safety, security & licensing
- Hallmark 3Â : Requires the hall or building to have a community and social awareness, with forward planning and communication being key.
The Village Hall is always on the look out for new ideas to keep the Hall vibrant and responsive to the needs of the village, so if you feel like getting involved on the Village Hall Committee please respond to this post. We meet just 6 times each year.
