Hall Governance

Neal took on the role of Chairman for the Chieveley Recreational Centre (CRC) in June 2023 with a view of shaping how the village hall and surrounding recreational facilities could become more sustainable and relevant for the local community. His background is from insurance related services and latterly running his own consultancy company. With the CRC he inherited a well-run organisation with an Executive Committee, employees, volunteers, and Trustees who are willing and enthusiastic to contribute and support these developments. He says “Although there are many loyal groups of regular hirers of both the hall and grounds, and several events centred on the facility, there is still much to do, both in increasing the footfall and improving the facilities for users now and in the future. It’s both an exciting and rewarding challenge and a chance to give something back to the community.”
