As part of the discussions with Cherwell District Council, we recently asked for feedback about what you would like from our Community Centre/Sports Pavilion. Thanks for your feedback and contributions.

Here are the results of the survey.

These have now been shared with CDC, who are in discussions with GHVDC about the plans. We should hear more and be involved in further reviews of potential designs next month and will keep you posted!
