Idea Two...

Recently in my village there has been big news on the Community Centre. It has been redeveloped to make it more appealing, more useful and also one of the most 'energy efficient community building in the country.'

This made me think about using community centres as my topic. Many of these building have been around for decades and are now going out of fashion and looking a bit drab in the villages and towns that are all looking to have tight community spirit, however these buildings are necessarily a place where people would want to meet. The opportunity to redevelop these buildings into fantastic eco buildings at the same time as giving them a new lease of life is an added bonus to the community spirit and the earth. 

The Gamlingay Eco Hub provides everything for the village. This including; changing rooms for the sports teams, a kitchen for a cafe to run to provide a friendly place for people to meet, three hall spaces for the local drama group, guides/brownies and playgroups, the village local access library, with computer suite,is also now within the hub giving it a more central home than before, it has business rooms and can also cater for weddings.

I think this local eco hub could be a example to other community centres which are out of use or looking dated.
