It is with a heavy heart that our Executive Committee have written to the trustees of Ty Sign Community Hall and Resource Centre to withdraw our support for the project.

 

As a scouting organisation, it is our desire to seek ways to serve our local community, however it has become increasingly apparent that there is little positive support for the project within the community. We were hopeful that such support would come once the hall had been built, but having been made aware that the National Lottery have declined an application for funding for the new hall, we have taken the decision to withdraw our name from the project.

 

We are grateful for the work that has been put into this project thus far, and look forward to continuing to work with our neighbours at Channel View to look at ideas for developing our present site.

 

In April 2020 we will be celebrating 50 years of Scouting from our present hall, and look forward to a programme of work to bring our present hall into the 21st century.
